We had an incredible 2
weeks walking the Manaslu circuit trek. From the first meeting the owner NJ was
very attentive and listened to what we wanted, adjusting the length of the
original walk to suit our time constraints.
He picked
up our bags from our hotel for us, advised us on what gear to pack, lent us
walking sticks, puffer jackets and sleeping bags and advised us where to buy
extra gear from which turned out to be the best priced.
Our guide
Sanjib was fantastic and we would recommend requesting him if you book here.
His knowledge of the area was impressive and he seemed highly regarded and
respected by all the other guides. He went out of his way to make sure we got
our food first and extra portions if needed. He was patient and caring of us
and always walked with me at the back at my pace and would help me through the
tricky sections. He carefully monitored us when we were in the altitude
sickness zone to ensure we stayed well enough to cross the pass. He even
managed to get us crampons off another guide which we would recommend taking
for the pass. He woke us up when we didn't have an alarm each morning and made
us keep our heads warm at all times. He also took the time to hand draw us maps
on other walks we were planning on doing once we had finished the circuit.
All in
all we were very happy with our trek and were very grateful Sanjib got us
across the pass. The scenery gets better every day you walk and the only 4wd
track to walk is on the first half day.
We are
looking forward to the traditional dinner NJ takes you to upon returning to Kathmandu.
