  FIRSTLY, everyone should do this trek. It is absolutely breathtaking. Secondly, I arranged the trek when I landed since it's a lot cheaper than booking online, I payed $625 for 8 days. This price is not too bad either.

  Here is a 3 minutes cinematic film I made making my way to Annapurna Base Camp and my time there.

  Agree with the above, definitely do it. And don't do it in 8 days, massive in justice to it! Go at least a couple weeks.

  You also don't need a tour, a lot of people don't. It's not necessary, I hadn't done anything like this before and it's totally easy to just cruise into each village and find a place to stay. There's a really good guide ebook available.

  Book a Sherpa there if you need one. Put the money straight into the local economy (sorry op!)

    Country and and the other stakeholders also need money to run. (equal distribution of money) . The kids in the villages need school, bridge, hospital (healthcare) for which I think it is wise to go through tax paying tour operator.
    I think this is how country makes money to build airport and road so that tourists can get there. A country running adventures like this also need a good search and rescue team which also need money. The national park and conservation area needs money to clean the plastics, batteries and bottles created by tourism. The regulation of the price and management of the tourism needs employees that should be paid.
    It is sad that some tourists want the price regulation to fail so that they could exploit the locals with unhealthy competition.

      Money rather go to local economy than the highly corrupted government (past and present) and its officials that use the taxpayers money to fund their lifestyles.

        I understand the frustration. But in practice no country works like that. Nepal is not the worse and it is working its way out.
        In-fact the locals in the trekking region have already earned enough to move to cities. Many of them are there temporarily just for business.
        Now if you think porters / guides and the locals off the trekking route are the sufferers. They don't get any relief until tourists take guides and porters and go through tax paying company.

  This is too quick and altitude climb on last day is seriously dangerous. Do not ascend more than 500m a day over 3500m!

    Associateditournepal @ iTourNepal on 07/08/2018 - 00:24

    Theoretically it may. But practically we have been doing it fine as clients have side hikes to above 3,000 m several times before spending a night in Base camp. You can go to our tripadvisor reviews and ask clients who have done it.
    Moreover, this is just an tentative itinerary which changes in field as per the clients performance. So it is flexible to spend extra night in Fishtail base camp (3,700 m) if needed. We have an easy day at the end spending the whole afternoon in the hot spring. So if the client need to spend extra night higher, we still make it back to Pokhara on the scheduled day.
