A steady ascent brings you to Ghorepani, a key stop for many Annapurna treks. Optional early-morning hike to Poon Hill for a legendary sunrise over Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, and Machhapuchhre.
Highlight: Poon Hill sunrise — one of the best panoramic viewpoints in Nepal.
Ghorepani to Tadapani — Rhododendron Forests and Mountain Vistas

Highlight: Cultural interactions with Gurung villagers and terraced valley views.
Chhomrong to Himalaya — Into the Heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary
Trek through bamboo groves and mountain passes to reach the Himalaya teahouse area (near Machhapuchhre Base). The trail gets steeper; take time to acclimatize and enjoy close-up mountain panoramas.

Himalaya to Annapurna Base Camp — Summit of the Trek
An early, rewarding ascent leads to the iconic Annapurna Base Camp (ABC). Arrive mid-day to soak in 360° views of giants: Annapurna I, Annapurna South, Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) and Hiunchuli. Celebrate at the base camp and enjoy a special dinner under the stars.

Tip: Bring swimwear and a quick-dry towel for the hot springs.

Recent Nepal Reviews
Nepal Cabs and Rooms Both Delivered
We were a couple traveling to Nepal for the first time, and honestly I was nervous about the ground arrangements because I'd heard horror stories from friends. TourGrids completely changed that. Every cab was on time — driver already knew the pickup point, no last-minute confusion. The hotels they picked in Pokhara and Kathmandu were proper good, clean rooms, decent views, nothing felt like a downgrade. Our coordinator Priya had sorted all of this over WhatsApp before we even landed. No surprise charges at checkout, no awkward negotiations with drivers. It felt like someone had already done all the stressful parts for us before we arrived.
Nepal Transfers and Hotels Both Delivered Well
Travelled to Nepal with my wife last month and honestly the hotels TourGrids arranged were a proper step up from what I'd seen on my own research. Every property was clean, well-located, and exactly what was described — no surprises at check-in. The cab transfers between cities were equally well-organised. Driver was on time, vehicle was comfortable, and the routes were planned sensibly so we weren't wasting hours on bad roads. I'd spoken to the coordinator a few times over WhatsApp before booking and he was straightforward — no unnecessary upselling, no hidden charges at the end. The whole ground arrangement in Nepal just felt taken care of without us having to chase anyone.
Nepal Planned Exactly the Way We Wanted
My husband and I had been going back and forth on Nepal for months but couldn't figure out where to start. A friend suggested TourGrids and honestly, one call changed everything. The coordinator listened to what we actually wanted — more mountains, fewer crowded tourist spots — and came back with an itinerary that felt personal. We tweaked a couple of things over WhatsApp and it was finalised within two days. Hotels were proper good, the cab timings were all coordinated, and there were no surprise charges at the end. Everything we discussed on call was reflected in what we actually experienced on the trip. Really appreciated how little we had to follow up.
Nepal Itinerary Built Around Our Actual Preferences
I was a little nervous handing over the full Nepal planning to someone I'd only spoken to on WhatsApp, but the TourGrids team genuinely put me at ease from the first call itself. I was travelling with my husband and we had a few specific requests — no rushed mornings, a mix of sightseeing and relaxed days, and mid-range hotels that were actually clean and comfortable. The coordinator listened properly and came back with an itinerary that reflected exactly what we'd discussed. No random filler days, no upselling on call. Hotels were proper good, cabs were on time throughout, and the pricing was transparent from day one. Whole process felt surprisingly straightforward.
