First time trekking in the Himalayas and Himalayan Forever made it absolutely perfect. The pace was ideal for acclimatization, and our guide constantly checked on everyone's wellbeing. The variety of landscapes from terraced fields to alpine meadows kept every day interesting. Forest Camp lived up to its name with incredible biodiversity. The final push to the viewpoint was tough but rewarding beyond words. Machhapuchhre looked close enough to touch. Can't wait to return for Everest Base Camp.
Review for 12 days Mardi Himal Trek
Mardi Himal exceeded expectations in every way. The trail feels genuinely wild and untouched, especially above Low Camp. Himalayan Forever organized everything flawlessly. I appreciated their focus on responsible tourism and fair treatment of porters. The alpine scenery in the upper sections is otherworldly. Our small group bonded over shared meals at cozy teahouses. The cultural experience in villages like Siding added depth to the adventure. Highly recommend for anyone seeking an authentic Himalayan experience.

What an adventure! The ridge walk to Mardi viewpoint was challenging but absolutely spectacular. Himalayan Forever's team made everything easy – our guide Bishal was knowledgeable and patient, especially when I struggled with altitude at High Camp. The teahouses were more basic than I expected but clean and the food surprisingly good. Waking up surrounded by those massive peaks was surreal. Already planning my return to Nepal with this company for a longer trek.

Chose this trek based on recommendations and wasn't disappointed. The gradual ascent through different vegetation zones was fascinating. Himalayan Forever's logistics were seamless from permits to accommodation bookings. The viewpoint at 4500m delivered incredible panoramas without the crowds you'd find at ABC. Our porter was incredibly hardworking and always cheerful. The descent via Siding village offered lovely cultural encounters. Perfect length for a week's holiday and excellent value for money.

Mardi Himal was everything I hoped for and more. The rhododendron forests in April were absolutely stunning, covered in vibrant blooms. What I loved most was the solitude – we encountered very few other trekkers compared to the busier Annapurna routes. Our guide from Himalayan Forever was brilliant, sharing insights about local flora and ensuring we were comfortable at altitude. High Camp was basic but the sunrise views made everything worthwhile. The close-up perspective of Machhapuchhre is simply breathtaking.
