Best Trip and amazingly enjoyed
We recently completed the exhilarating Mera Peak trek in June 2023 and highly recommend it for those in good physical condition looking for a challenge. Our guides, Nim Dorjee and Kami Sherpa, were exceptional, helping us reach the summit despite our limited climbing experience. The trip was well-organized, fun, and supportive. While the food mainly consists of rice, soups, and noodles, we suggest bringing protein supplements. Sole Encounters Trekking made everything seamless, and we’re grateful for their excellent service. We’d definitely trek with them again!

My experience trekking to Everest Base Camp and completing the Annapurna Circuit with Sole Encounters Adventures was truly outstanding. Guides Pasang, Dendi, and Ramesh, together with the dedicated porters, provided constant encouragement, strong safety awareness, and impressive knowledge of the Himalayan region. Their professionalism ensured both treks were well organized, safe, and incredibly memorable.
It was also inspiring to learn about Sole Encounters Adventures’ efforts in empowering women and training young Nepalis to become professional trekking guides. Traveling with a responsible, community driven trekking company in Nepal made the journey even more meaningful. I highly recommend them to anyone planning trekking in Nepal.

Manasalu best trip ever
The trip exceeded my already high expectations , really a once in a life time trip, I couldn't recommend more. Flew out by myself to join 10 others on the trip lead by our guides Prem Bdr tamang , sherpas ; we had an incredibly easy journey on our 16.5 day trip. The nepalese hospitality is second nature and seeming unparalleled, with everyone from our guides to people along the way going above and beyond to make sure we were well and good. The actual hiking was spread out well with it being challenging but not overwhelming, especially giving plenty of time to acclimatise with any altitude. The scenery is unmatched, providing the only issue while walking that you have to stop every ten steps to take another photo. If you're thinking about it, do it
