5-Day Poon Hill Trek: Himalayan Adventure from Kathmandu

My wife and I recently completed the 3-day Poon Hill trek, and it was an unforgettable adventure! We started with a drive from Pokhara airport to Ulleri, then trekked through beautiful trails to reach Ghorepani. The highlight came early on the second day when we hiked to Poon Hill to watch a breathtaking sunrise. Afterward, we continued our journey toward Tadapani, passing through vibrant rhododendron forests and stunning landscapes. Our guide and porter were exceptional — knowledgeable, friendly, and full of fascinating insights about the mountains and local culture. The accommodations along the way were surprisingly comfortable and cozy, providing a perfect rest after each day's trek. A heartfelt thanks to Arjun from Snow Peak Tour and Travels for expertly organizing our itinerary, flights, and all the small details that made this trip smooth and enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend Snow Peak Tour and Travels for anyone seeking a well-organized and awe-inspiring trekking experience!

Golma and our beloved porter Gotam went above and beyond to exceed every expectation. They were constantly positive, accommodating, and genuinely cared about our experience. We weren’t the most prepared, but they adapted completely to our pace and made sure we reached the top and returned safely, confidently, and in good spirits. Our 5-day trek to Annapurna Base Camp was tough—but filled with warmth, laughter, and unforgettable moments. Along the way, we passed through mountains, remote villages, dense forests, bamboo jungles, rivers, and all kinds of incredible and ever-changing terrain. We also learned so much about Nepal, especially the villages we passed through and the breathtaking mountain landscapes surrounding us. The food was consistently great, the accommodation was cosy and welcoming, and every village we stayed in had its own charm and character. If you’re considering an adventure like this, take the leap. This team is professional, safe, and incredibly thoughtful—they’ll tailor the experience to suit exactly what you need. We’ll absolutely be back next year… and we’d do it all over again.

I recently completed the Mardi Himal trek, and as a first-time trekker with no cardio training and recovering from a flu, I was quite nervous. However, my guide Anil and our porter made the experience absolutely seamless and joyful. Anil was incredibly attentive and patient, constantly adjusting the pace to suit my needs and checking in on my well-being. He is a fantastic representative of Nepal—friendly, respectful, and genuinely caring. Beyond the trekking support, he is a great photographer and we shared so many laughs even when the climb got challenging! Both Anil and the porter, Shitalrm (sorry for the incorrect spelling) were so knowledgeable and eager to share stories about local culture and beliefs, which made the journey much more meaningful. The accommodation and meal arrangements were excellent throughout. I felt safe and supported every step of the way. If you are heading to the Himalayas, I cannot recommend this team highly enough!

Did the Poon Hill Ghorepani trek with my guide jeet bahadur Nepali. Had a great experience with fun all the way up and some great views at the top. THANK YOU!

Booking the Mardi Himal trek through Snow Peak was quick, effortless and well arranged. I was able to pay with card, and they took good care of my bag while I was on the trek. My guide Purus (Purushottam) was pivotal in providing a very fun and engaging experience! Purus speaks English fluently, can happily chat about any subject, shared many tidbits of Nepali language and culture with me, and became a very helpful and compassionate friend during my first trek in Nepal. Most importantly - Purus has over 25 years of trekking experience and seemed to know everyone and every option on the mountain (or make friends very quickly)! This came in handy as I had booked the trek last-minute during the busiest weekend of the year (whoops). Without Purus, I definitely would not have been able to secure accommodation along the trek - I saw many people get turned away as every guesthouse was full to the brim, even dining halls and tents. Overall I highly recommend trekking with Purus and Snow Trek.

We are on company vacation in Nepal! We did a Kathmandu day tour, luxury coach to Chitwan for jungle safari, then Pokhara with day tour, paragliding, and bungee (some of us!). Finally, visited Muktinath with stunning Himalayan views. Well-organized and unforgettable experience. Highly recommend.

This was an amazing one day hike! If you want to get out and see the mountains, but are in the off season or don’t have enough time for a multi day hike, this is your for you! My guide, Jet Bhadur Nepli, was fantastic! He knew all the great picture taking spots, was knowledgeable about the area and hikes available, and set a great pace for the hike! If you do this hike, be sure to bring water, bandaids, and tall hiking socks because there are leeches. You take some stops along the way for coffee, tea, and food which allows you to rest along the way. I had such an amazing time on this tour and wish I had more days to have done a longer one. If you find yourself in the Pokhara area of Nepal, this is a must do tour, and Jet Bhadur Nepli is the guide you want to show you this area!
