Trekked solo in October with guide Dipak and felt completely safe the entire journey. Sunrise at ABC (4,130m) with Annapurna I turning gold was unforgettable. Got a slight headache at MBC but Dipak made lemon ginger tea and we took it slow. Chhomrong village was charming with incredible dal bhat. Himalaya Hub's booking process was smooth and price fair. Perfect 10-day adventure for solo travelers. Exceeded all expectations.

The Sanctuary Exceeded Every Expectation
Did the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek in March with guide Karma who was absolutely brilliant. The amphitheatre at ABC (4,130m) completely blew me away - Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Machhapuchhre surrounded us in a perfect circle. The 10-day pace allowed perfect acclimatization. Rhododendrons were starting to bloom in the forests. The hot springs at Jhinu Danda were heaven on tired legs. Himalaya Hub organized everything flawlessly from Pokhara pickup to finish. Highly recommend this trek and company.

Syaklung Village Was So Charming
Syaklung village at 1,730m was so charming. Stone houses, prayer flags, and the warmest Gurung hospitality. A family invited us for tea and homemade food and our guide translated everything. We laughed so much that evening. Himalaya Hub is a professional trekking company and those genuine village moments are what make their treks so special. The Royal Trek through the Annapurna foothills is the most peaceful and cultural short trek from Pokhara. Rupa Lake on the descent was so beautiful too. Great service from start to finish. Life changing short trek in Nepal.
I did the Royal Trek with my parents who are in their 60s and it was perfect for all of us. Low altitude, gentle trails, friendly villages, and incredible mountain views. Our guide was so attentive and always made sure everyone was comfortable. He carried my mother's bag on the steep sections without being asked. Himalaya Hub is one of the best trekking agencies in Nepal for family friendly treks near Pokhara. The Gurung villages along the route were so genuinely welcoming. The Royal Trek is proof that you do not need to go high to see something truly beautiful. Knowledgeable guides and safe and well organized throughout.
Chisapani was the best viewpoint of the whole Royal Trek. Dhaulagiri to the west and the whole Annapurna range to the north. Our guide woke us early for that view and it was worth every cold minute. Himalaya Hub is a great local trekking operator near Pokhara. The Annapurna panorama trek experience was stunning. Best guide in Nepal.
