My Annapurna Circuit trek with GST was amazing. Our guide knew a lot about the local culture and terrain. We trekked through beautiful rhododendron forests, and under clear blue skies.

The 15-day Dhaulagiri Circuit Trek was well-organized with a friendly guide. It offers challenges, breathtaking views, and diverse scenery. We highly suggest GST for anyone looking to discover Nepal's beauty.

Glacier Safari Treks was the local agency that organised our (mainly cultural) 10 day trek in the Kathmandu Valley followed by a 4 day trek in the Annapurna Conservation Area from Pokhara. They arranged the guides, porters, accomodation and transportation during these treks and were very efficient in it. Also when there was some misunderstanding in the programme (an extra expense that was not forseen or an extra convenience we wanted) they reacted swiftly and to the point. Overall we liked their service a lot and there never was any glitch. We can highly recommend them for your future treks. We will certainly contact them again (and this time directly and not through our home travel agency anymore) for our future exploration of Nepal or even Bhutan or Tibet!
