Breathtaking Views and Well-Organized Trek!

I had an incredible time on the Annapurna Panorama Trek! The 2-day adventure was the perfect short escape, with stunning views of the Annapurna range and charming villages along the way. The trek was well-paced, allowing me to take in the scenery without feeling rushed. I loved that it started and ended in Pokhara, which made it convenient for my travel plans. The guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience even better. My only wish is that we could have stayed longer in the mountain village overnight! Highly recommend for those short on time but wanting a taste of the Himalayas.

Short Yet Memorable Trek

This trek was a great introduction to the Annapurna region in just two days. The landscapes we passed were so beautiful, with rhododendron forests and terraced fields, and the sight of Annapurna and Machapuchare peaks was breathtaking. The overnight stay in a traditional lodge was comfortable, and the food served was delicious! The trek was short but packed with great views and experiences. The only downside was that I wished we had more time to explore the villages, but for a quick trek, this was perfect
