In October 2022 my wife and me spent a 3 week holiday in Nepal using the services of Treking Team Group ( TTG ) in Kathmandu and its speciality – Manaslu circuit. Before I will briefly describe what happened I have to write here down that this company is fully professional, with long history of serving their clients  from all over the world. After the arrival at the Tribhuvan international airport in Kathmandu we easily found the representative of TTG ( the nephew of the director ) who was already waiting for us in the arrival hall. He was waiting inside the building while the other companies have been waiting outside it near the parking place. I forgot to ask why but after the long all night flight it was pleasant to find our partner so quickly. After the short drive ( with a comfortable and clean car ) we were warmly welcome by Srihari – the director of TTG at the simple but comfortable Mandala Boutique Hotel near the Thamel – touristic center of Kathmandu. On the next day together Srihari and his nephew showed us the “best of” Kathmandu with interesting explanation of the history and presence of the Nepal capital. In the afternoon at the hotel they introduced us our trekking guide Hari and detailly explained our trip. They also were very helpful to buy some small missing things that we were supposed to have in the mountains. The situation up there was not ideal, better said it was complicated because of unexpected snowfall in the previous days and also because of massive landslides on the trek.

We agreed on slightly modified program because of all this unexpected issues and next morning we left the hotel for Soti Khola. Next day we started our 15 days trek of the Manaslu circuit with in four : my wife and me, our guide Hari and Omis – the porter. During these 15 days we not only passed the highest point of the trek : Larke Pass – 5109 meters of altitude but also did several whole day acclimatization but interesting side trips to the places like Punggen Gumba monastery, Manaslu Base Camp, Tibetian border, Ponkar Lake and many half day walks aside. During these 15 days we hade to declare several times that we have the best guide on the trek. Even in the complicated situations ( when some groups gave up and return ), like the massive landslide between Jagat and Deng, he always knew what to do and always found out simple and save solution. Real professional! Thanks to him we were able to fully enjoy the trekking days in the altitudes over 4500 meters and crossing the Larke Pass was nearly “icing on the cake”. During the days we did not have any altitude disease, diarrhea problems, lack of equipment, no uncertain points. And after more than 2 weeks in the mountains we were warmly welcome by Srihari in Kathmandu at the same hotel with a feeling that we returned home. Again TTG – these are guys that know what they are doing! Highly recommended.
