We were one of the lucky groups to have access to the Annapurna Santuary days before the Nepalese government closed it, its boarders and grounding of all flights. Our research had found ABC was a trek that teahouses every couple of hours and was relatively safe to do in summertime. As it was March and there was still snowfall with avalanche risk zones so we decided to get a guide to put our minds at ease and give some employment back when tourism was low. We visited several government registered trekking offices but we were overly impressed with the professionalism, safety and good sense of humour from everyone at the offices. From our research on here we dropped into the guys and instantly took a liking to them as they were a friendly bunch of guys. Asked to meet with Milan and knew straight away he would be a great addition to our pairing. He was very helpful, with great English and wanted to shape our trek around our needs and not his own and do it at our pace. He was open to changes to plans and made us feel at ease the whole way up and down. No shortage of interesting traditional facts, wildlife and fauna knowledge, plus a keen photographer, singer and boot fixer extraordinaire! Took our minds off the avalanche zones and allowed us to acclimatise before our ascent. It’s not an easy trek but our guide Milan knows how to make it a good laugh. Ask him to show you his male goat impression!! Even though a guide isn’t mandatory it 100% helps to improve the experience. We saw lots of people do it without and take some very unnecessary risks. Nature is spectacularly beautiful but wicked at the same time. We highly recommend Milan and the team at Sinse Rovers. It’s always good to give employment where possible to decent local tourism business. Enjoy your activity with them it will certainly be memorable!
4. Local Guide for Bandipur Walks & Annapurna Trekking
I grew up in the beautiful hill-top village of Bandipur (you should see it!). At the age of 16 I became a porter but because my English is good, I quickly became Assistant Guide and then Lead Guide. I have worked for many years as a Lead Guide both with Intrepid Travel and Himalayan Encounters before I decided to become independent guide. Over the years I have learnt so much about the mountains, first-aid, nature, local culture, weather, food, hygiene and client handling. Some of it is knowledge I learnt growing up in the Himalayas. Some I gained on government training courses and some I have learnt when being a guide. I also love to learn about life in the west from my client friends too! Meeting new people and making new friends from all over the world is a great joy for me.

Nepal was a magical place. And it was made more so by Annapurna Foothills. It was my first time to Nepal and the EBC. I felt well carried for at all times. From the moment my plane landed to the time when I left Nepal. They took the time to explain to me the entire process. Booking my hotel in Kathmandu. Arranging for COVID testing. Letting me know what to expect each day along the trek. Making sure that all necessary documents were in order. Dawa, my guide and Ngima, my porter, were professional and extremely helpful throughout. They guided me every step of the way, allowing me to take in the immense natural beauty and culture of the Himalayas. This was one of the most memorable trips I've ever taken and I am already planning next year's visit to do the Annapurna Base Camp Trek with AF. I can't wait!

My husband, 4 friends and I just finished our EBC and Gokyo trip with high spirit treks and it was an amazing experience! Our guide Shera and our porters felt like family on this trip and always had our best interests in mind. Additionally, they were very flexible with the itinerary to suit our group's needs, which at times meant changing the route to get to EBC (they were very cooperative with us). Our guide was by our side at all times (especially if you were at the back) and didn't rush us at all. He chose great teahouses for us to stay in and was very knowledgeable of the area. He and the porters were also very friendly and easy to talk to. Every night we would play card games and chat, they even took the time to teach us some of the language. I cannot recommend these guys enough! There is so much clarity with their pricing and inclusions/exclusions, they are quick in responding to your queries and they take such great care of you. We had such an awesome experience! Book your EBC trek with High Spirit Treks!
