High Camp Trekking

We did our first trek in Nepal, in Langtang Valley last January. Our guide, Samden, was amazing. He was very patient and thoughtful. He made sure we stayed in comfortable tea houses and we really enjoyed our trek without having to worry about accommodation, food, etc. We learned a lot with Samden. It was for us an unforgettable experience. We warmly recommend this agency!!! We will come back to Nepal with high camp trek.

Our tour around Manaslu was top organized in every respect and we were well supported by all our Nepalese companions on both the Trek and Larkya Peak 6,249m, making this great experience possible.

First, I would like to thank the work of the porters, guides and Norsang Lama to make possible the successful summiting at 19/10/2024. The trek itself is about 14 days, and it requires some physical and mental preparedness. The first few days is an up and down wandering in the forrests. After reaching Kothe the real adventure begins and you start to feel the Himalayas. The summit day is quite demanding, as the previous day you trek up to high-camp, and after spending a short night in a tent, wake up at 1 am and start to peak Mera. And after that back to Kare. Even going down does not simple as before going back to Lukla you have to climb up to a high pass. The food was very good for the whole trek, the tea house (lodge) accommodation is better what you can expect in some mountains, but still you have to adapt to the cold, isolation (no network, sometimes no wifi) and the monotonous daily routines. Our trekking guide Suren, helped us everything, know everything, and was a great guy. The porters did the heavy part of the trek, without their job it won’t be even harder to do this. An important thing is to keep in mind that the flights to and back to Lukla is never a sure thing, maybe you have to wait days, so when calculating the whole length of the journey add 1 or 2 days as a safety time. My final summary is that I found Norsang Lama and his company absolutely reliable, and if I ever go back to Nepal I will going to consider them again as my tour operator.

Amazing experience! We did the Manaslu circuit and Tsum Valley trekking and enjoyed every second of it. Every aspect of the trekking was planned to perfection, from our accommodations to daily trekking schedules, ensuring a smooth and rewarding experience. Our guide, Birendra Tamang, was knowledgeable, professional, and passionate, sharing insights into the local culture, history and landscapes along the way. His expertise and encouragement made all the difference, especially during the more challenging parts of the trek. He ensured our safety and well-being at all times, even in the high-altitude sections, which was incredibly reassuring. The route through the Tsum Valley felt like a step back in time, with unspoiled landscapes, traditional villages, and warm, welcoming locals. Every day was an immersion in breathtaking scenery, from the lush forests at lower altitudes to the awe-inspiring mountain views as we climbed higher. The Manaslu Circuit itself was a thrilling experience, blending dramatic mountain scenery with serene trails. Every turn on the circuit revealed stunning views of Mount Manaslu and neighboring peaks, and the journey through diverse ecosystems made each day feel unique. From lush valleys and roaring rivers to high-altitude passes, the entire trek was an immersion into nature's grandeur. Accommodations were surprisingly comfortable given the remote locations, and we were treated to delicious, authentic meals that provided the energy needed for each day’s trek. The team made sure our dietary needs were met, which was very much appreciated.

We did in October and November the Tsum valley and Manaslu trekking with guide Birenda. It was wonderfull and everything was well arranged ! Also shout out to Birenda for the Guiding and learning/telling more about the Nepal culture and the cart game Dumbal ;) !
