Embarking on a journey to the Himalayas is a dream come true for any adventure enthusiast, and our upcoming trip to Annapurna Base Camp promises an exhilarating experience. Departing in the first week of May, you are in for a treat as the weather during this time is relatively mild, offering clear skies and breathtaking views of the towering peaks.

The adventure kicks off with a 9-night, 10-day trek to Annapurna Base Camp, situated at an impressive altitude of 4130 metres. The trek encompasses 14 nights in Nepal, promising a deep dive into the heart of the Himalayas. Each day holds the promise of new discoveries, whether it be the serene beauty of ancient forests, the charm of traditional mountain villages, or the challenge of ascending towards the majestic Annapurna range.

The cost of the trip, totaling $2150 USD or $3500 NZD, covers a daily expenditure of $250. This includes accommodation, meals and the services of experienced guides and porters. The exclusion of return flights to Kathmandu from NZ allows for flexibility in choosing your preferred airline and travel dates.

The journey itself is an investment in both physical and mental well-being. Trekking through the Himalayas is a test of endurance and resilience, rewarding you with a sense of accomplishment as you reach the base camp. The daily routine involves waking up to stunning mountain vistas, trekking through diverse landscapes, and immersing yourself in the unique culture of the local communities.

Nepal's rich cultural tapestry unfolds as you interact with the locals, sample traditional cuisine, and witness ancient rituals. The trek is not just a physical challenge but a spiritual journey, connecting you with the raw, untouched beauty of the Himalayas and the profound spirituality that permeates the region.

As you ascend towards Annapurna Base Camp, the scenery becomes increasingly dramatic. Towering peaks, including the iconic Machapuchare and Annapurna South, dominate the skyline. The base camp itself offers a surreal panorama of snow-capped summits, making every step of the trek worthwhile.

The memories forged during this adventure will undoubtedly be etched into your mind forever. From the camaraderie formed with fellow trekkers to the moments of solitude amidst nature's grandeur, the Himalayas have a way of leaving an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to experience their majesty.

In conclusion, the 10-day trek to Annapurna Base Camp is not merely a physical expedition but a soul-stirring odyssey through one of the world's most spectacular landscapes.
