I had the best trekking you can possibly have. Everything was smooth and amazing! I did the Annapurna circuit 15days (with Tilicho lake and Poon hill). Here more details: Let’s start by saying that I contacted them on WhatsApp, a friend recommended them to me, and they were very flexible to arrange the best itinerary for me and my needs. We agreed on an exact itinerary/number of days/price they were very responsive and nice from the start. (Also I asked some quotes in different travel agencies and their price is very good!). Then, I had a problem with my flight and they were so kind to come to pick me at the airport in late evening instead of afternoon as agreed. Once at the agency in late evening I payed what agreed and had a debriefing about the trek. The next day I started with Ganesh, my guide. Ganesh is the best guide you can dream to have. He really made sure I was doing okey for the entire 2 weeks at high altitude. Giving me suggestions every day on different things. Encouraging me in the hard steep up climbs. He was the absolute best!!! If you want to do a trek and have the best time you MUST go with Ganesh. He chose the best places to sleep, the rooms almost always had private toilet (and considered you are at 4000m altitude in the mountains this is absolute luxury!), the food was good in every place we ate all the way of the circuit. He is very experienced, knows a lot about the places and you always feel you are in good hands. I didn’t have altitude sickness but is important to feel safe with your guide and I guarantee you that with him you will! Also I am very slow in going up on the steep slope and he never pressured me and always was so kind to respect how slow I was, encouraging me all the time. “No problem slowly slowly”. The circuit itself is really amazing, beautiful views on the mountains. Also Ganesh made small arrangements to the itinerary adjusting it to my speed. I can’t recommend him enough! Overall I can really suggest you to go with this travel agency. And ask for Ganesh if you want the best guide of Nepal! Giulia

We recently completed the 14-day Manaslu Circuit Trek with Magic Expedition and Tours, and it was an unforgettable experience. The trek itself was stunning—Nepal’s natural beauty is absolutely breathtaking, from dramatic mountain views to serene villages and lush forests. A huge part of what made this trip so special was our guide Ganesh, who was not only extremely knowledgeable and experienced but also incredibly friendly and supportive throughout the journey. He ensured everything went smoothly and shared valuable insights about the region. Our porter Kadagar was also fantastic—always helpful, making our trek much more comfortable. We felt well taken care of every step of the way and truly appreciated the professionalism and warmth of the entire team. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the Himalayas with reliable and friendly support!

Wow what an experience, my partner and I did the 11 day Annapurna Circuit. The crew at Magic Expeditions were so helpful giving us all the info, a great price and most importantly and exceptional guide Krishna! From walking in off the street with no experience trekking in Nepal, everything was organised perfectly from start to finish. Krishna was such a great companion for the trek, and was so helpful explaining things about the areas we walked through, and leading us through some of the most amazing landscapes I’ve witnessed. 10/10 would highly recommend using these guys for anyone thinking about trekking in Nepal!

Amazing service. We took the car service during our 7 days trip in Nepal. Not only the price was reasonable we also made some customization in our itinerary on the way. And they happily arranged everything. Took care of everything. Raju dada was like a big brother.

Without Mr. Raju’s help, my trip in Nepal would’ve been impossible. He helped me arranging bus tickets to Pokhara with Swift Holidays, paragliding, and Nagarkot sunrise tour. This company gives fair prices and attentive service. Mr. Raju and Lokesh knows every trip schedule and checks up to make sure everything works well. They are also very friendly and gives good advice. Hope I can come back to Nepal for longer trips and I’ll make sure to use your service again. I wish you guys great success!
