I completed the Manaslu Circuit Trek in September 2025 with two of my Swedish friends, and we chose Mountain Delights Treks & Expedition for our journey and it was absolutely the right decision.
I first came to Nepal back in 1991, and since then I have visited many times. Over the years, I’ve come to know Ram, the owner of Mountain Delights, very well. His experience of more than 30 years in tourism truly shows in the way the entire trip was organized. Having started his career as a trekking guide himself, he understands every detail from both a client’s and a guide’s perspective.
From the very beginning, everything was handled professionally and smoothly. The communication before arrival, the planning of the itinerary, and the overall organization were all excellent. Once on the trek, we felt completely taken care of.
A special mention goes to our guide, Babu, who was incredibly experienced, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the journey. His calm nature, understanding of the mountains, and ability to handle any situation gave us great confidence and allowed us to fully enjoy the trek.
The Manaslu Circuit itself is stunning,less crowded, culturally rich, and incredibly diverse,and Mountain Delights made the experience even more memorable.
I highly recommend Mountain Delights Treks & Expedition to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and experienced trekking company in Nepal. I will definitely be trekking with them again in the future
