Breathe Nepal Trekking Avis 

We did the 4 day Poonhill trek and can honestly say our experience with Breathe Nepal was incredible. They were responsive, communicative and flexible when we last minute changed dates due to the weather and our guide, Kabi, was just amazing. He has so much knowledge about the area and his passion for the mountains really shines through. He was so unbelievably kind and attentive to our needs, he couldn’t have done more for us. He made our experience so special and we can’t recommend him enough!!

An Unforgettable Experience with Breathe Nepal Trekking!
Me and my friends Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek was an absolutely incredible experience, and choosing Breathe Nepal Trekking was undoubtedly the best decision we could have made. From start to finish, everything was organised to the highest professional standard. The team demonstrated outstanding professionalism, attention to detail and excellent organisation, making the entire journey smooth, safe and enjoyable. What made this experience truly special, however, was the people. The atmosphere throughout the trek was wonderfully warm and family-like. We never felt like just another group of tourists – we felt genuinely cared for and supported by every member of the team. The entire crew was exceptional, not only in their professionalism but also in their friendliness, dedication and positive attitude. Their knowledge was equally impressive. They shared fascinating insights into Nepal’s history, culture and traditions, as well as demonstrating an outstanding understanding of the mountain trails, local conditions and the Himalayas. It was clear that we were travelling with people who are genuinely passionate about what they do.
And the Annapurna Base Camp trek itself? Simply unbelievable! The breathtaking scenery, the majestic mountains and the feeling of reaching ABC are experiences that are difficult to put into words. It is an adventure that everyone who loves mountains and nature should experience at least once in their lifetime.
My recommendation is simple: if you are planning to trek to Annapurna Base Camp, don’t look any further – go with Breathe Nepal Trekking!
I couldn’t have wished for a better team or a more memorable adventure. Thank you for making this journey so special. I will remember it for the rest of my live!
Highly recommended – 5 stars without hesitation!

I would like to thank Roman, Issy, Saroj, Hem, and Bibbib for giving us an unforgettable experience. They are a perfectly synchronized team—kind, funny, and full of positive vibes, yet also deeply caring. No matter what we asked for, nothing was ever too much. They truly went above and beyond to pamper us. They are, without a doubt, some of the most wonderful people I have ever met. I know for certain that I will return to Nepal—not just to visit the country again, but specifically to head back into the beautiful Himalayas with them. Thank you for who you are and for everything you do. It means far more than you could ever imagine!! Big hugs from Belgium x

Lifetime experience, mardi himal 6 day trek

We had a wonderful 3-day, 2-night trek to Poon Hill, and a big part of that was our guide, Kumar. He’s very experienced, and we felt lucky to have him. He seemed to know everyone along the trail, and thanks to him we were really well looked after at every teahouse we stayed in. He was knowledgeable, friendly and supportive, always adapting to our pace.

Breathe Nepal’s all-inclusive service was helpful since we were short on time. Communication was excellent from the start, and they were quick to accommodate a last-minute change. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but worth it for the convenience, and it’s great to support a local Pokhara-based business. Should you book with them, we highly recommend requesting Kumar as your guide.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Amazing Mardi Himal Trek with Breathe Nepal

My wife and I recently completed the 5-day Mardi Himal trek with Breathe Nepal, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish.

The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and while the trek was challenging at times, it was incredibly rewarding.

A special thanks to our guide, Kabi, who was knowledgeable, professional, patient, and genuinely attentive throughout the journey. His friendly personality and positive attitude made the experience even better. We also really appreciated the hard work of our porter.

Everything was well organized, from transportation and accommodations to meals and logistics, allowing us to simply enjoy the adventure.

We highly recommend Breathe Nepal, and especially Kabi as a guide, to anyone considering this unforgettable trek!

It was a perfect hike with an extraodinary guide. He was funny and we had a good time thanks to Kumar.

I spent a week with Lila as my guide and honestly I couldn't have asked for better. He's kind, strong, and has a really good heart. He made the whole experience not only pleasant but as comfortable as it could be, and somewhere along the way he stopped being just "the guide." By the end I was calling him a friend.

I also met a couple of other guides from the team and they were the same, very kind and genuine people.

These guys are local, they're invested in the community and in the areas they take you through, and they really know what they're doing. I trusted Lila 100% the whole way. I couldn't be happier with the service I got.

Highly recommend. And the best part for me: I left with a new friend, which is something I'm honored to say.

My girlfriend and I set out to complete the trek to Poon Hill, and we truly can’t say enough amazing things about our experience with our guide, Kumar, and porter, Pradhan.

It was definitely a tough trek to complete, but Kumar and Pradhan kept our spirits high the entire way with their kindness, humor, and encouragement. They also took us along some incredible paths with amazing scenery that many people don’t get to experience on the typical trek to Poon Hill.

It’s always great having a knowledgeable guide who can tell you not only where you’re going, but also about the local people, what they do, and some of the history behind the villages you’re passing through. Kumar did all of that while still giving my girlfriend and me plenty of space to experience and enjoy the trek together at our own pace.

Kumar also made sure we were well fed and comfortable everywhere we stayed. It’s awesome having people like Kumar and Pradhan who really exemplify the kindness, patience, and care that can be needed when guiding tourists who have never completed a trek like this before. Kumar even gave Pradhan the opportunity to guide us for part of our journey back, which was really cool to experience.

At no point did we ever feel like we were in danger or in unsafe hands. We felt taken care of throughout the entire trek while still being able to enjoy the adventure for ourselves.

It was an absolute blast and an experience we’ll always remember. We’re already looking forward to hopefully booking another trek with Kumar and Pradhan again someday! :)

My friend and I did the Khopra Ridge trek at the end of September. Beautiful views along the way and the trek is worth the hike!

But the real MPVs were our guide, Raj Kumar, and porter, Raju Jaisi, especially when the weather turned bad. They helped us finish our trek and get back to Pokhara through the three days of government warnings of heavy rain, thunderstorms, landslides, and washed out roads. Their years of experience were invaluable in this situation. Highly recommend!

I did my Annapurna Base Camp trek with Kumar, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide. There is no one more experienced, knowledgeable, or kind to have by your side on the mountain. He made the entire experience unforgettable, and I always felt like I was in great hands. I would recommend Kumar to anyone without a doubt in my mind. Contact Breathe Nepal

Haben schöne 8 Tage mit unserem Guide Kumar verbracht in der Annapurna Region. Obwohl das Base Camp zu der Zeit leider kurzfristig gesperrt wurde, hatten wir trotzdem Dank unserem Guide eine schöne Route und eine lustige und abenteuerlich Zeit.
Gerne wieder!

Amazing 2 day trek with Kumar.
Jul 2026 • kumar Shrestha was an amazing tour guide, from the moment he collected us to the moment we said goodbye. He told us the history of Nepal and our location, had an amazing knowledge of all the plants and wildlife. Helped me out big time when the leeches appeared! He welcomed us into his friends home for an evening meal which was an amazing experience. He made us feel safe and so
welcome.
I cannot recommend
Kumar enough.

We have trekked with Breathe Nepal Trekking several times over the past 10 years, and every experience has been fantastic. We first met Roman when we booked our Annapurna Base Camp trek, and we have returned to Nepal several times since. Each trip has been well organised, but what keeps us coming back is the people. Roman and his team genuinely care about their guests, and you never feel like just another booking.
The guides are knowledgeable, friendly, and always happy to share their culture and local knowledge. We also really appreciate that Breathe Nepal Trekking is a local company that looks after its guides and porters and supports local communities. Everything has always run smoothly, from planning the trek to the final day. Even when plans needed to change because of weather or other circumstances, Roman handled everything calmly and professionally. After trekking with Breathe Nepal Trekking multiple times, we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Nepal. If we return for another trek, they will be our first choice again.

If you’re thinking about trekking in Nepal, don’t hesitate to book with Breathe Nepal. From the beginning, they made everything easy, and we felt well looked after throughout the whole trip.

Our guide, Roman, is a local guide from Pokhara, and he was amazing. His English is excellent, and he has a real passion for sharing Nepal’s culture, history, and the stories behind the mountains. He wasn’t just guiding us—he helped us truly understand and appreciate the places we visited.

We always felt safe, supported, and welcome, and the experience was so much more than just a trek. It felt personal, authentic, and unforgettable.

Whether you’re planning a multi-day trek or just a short hike, I can honestly recommend Breathe Nepal 100%. They will make you feel comfortable, take great care of you, and help you create incredible memories in the Himalayas.

I did Poon Hill + Mardi Himal trekk with Lila as a guide and I can't be more pleased with the experience.

He could organize everything according to our preferences because he knew really well the area, the tea houses, the people and the paths. We created the itinerary together and he was absolutely flexible about any matter we suggested. I fully trusted him and knew I was in good hands, even if I was a bit scared about feeling sick due to altitude sickness (which never happened). He was supportive and kept motivation high, even in the hardest moments.

Walking with Lila gave me lots of insights about Nepali culture, wildlife, weather, traditions and even language! I learnt some Nepali sentences which I could use to interact with people. Such a beautiful experience! THANKS

I did 2 treks through Breathe Nepal Trekking, one multiday and one day trek. Highly recommend the great organization and supportive nature of Roman (as well as my guide Bishnu of my multiday trek in the Annapurna Circuit). They are amazing and extremely helpful before and during the treks. Great moments, and memories! Would definitely go back to them whenever coming back to Nepal.

Trekking the Mardi Himal was a life changing experience, having Roman and his fantastic team guide and support us made it truly exceptional. Their knowledge, dedication, and kindness are second to none. Getting up close and personal with those majestic mountains, feeling their scale, their silence, their presence, was unforgettable, and Roman’s team made every moment feel safe, meaningful, and deeply rewarding. They turned an already beautiful journey into one of the best experiences of our lives.

I went solo on my first trek up to the Annapurna Base Camp in 2015, a few months after the earthquake and tourism was greatly diminished - so no issue getting a bed in a tea house along the way. At the ABC lodge I met Kumar, turns out he was guiding another lady, but he was so helpful and personable at first I couldn't tell if he was a fellow trekker or a guide. By happen stance, on my way down I ended up spending the night in the same tea house where he and his client were, then tagged along with them the final portion the next day. Trekking with Kumar was like being with a good friend, though we had just met. So when I decided to take my son and daughter on the ABC trek some time later, I immediately knew Kumar was the the one to lead the way. However he was already booked, so sent his son Nino with us. Nino did an amazing job guiding the three of us where we spent New Years day at the top. When I return, I'd love to do the Millennium Trek with Breathe Nepal, one that combines a cultural home-stay experience which incorporates participating in daily rural life (and home cooked meals!) with trekking in the amazing scenic terrain and culture of Nepal. I loved the fact that both Kumar and Nino were able to shift schedules and plans along the way to tailor to their clients needs - different from guides who were signed on with larger agencies who were committed to keeping the exact route and schedule which had been booked and unwilling to make changes mid-route.
