We did the Poon Hill trekking and everything was perfect! Amrit (the manager) gave us a very good welcome to Nepal and organize a great trekking to Poon Hill. Raju (our guide) took care of us all the time and made us enjoy the trekking a lot! We got astonished with the views and we want to come back to repeat the experience and to do the whole round to Annapurnas! I really recommend this travel agency! ANNAPURNA WAS AMAZING!

We had an amazing trekking experience in the Annapurna Himalayas. It was our first time visiting Nepal and we instantly fell in love with this beautiful place. The trail was mostly fine besides some hard uphill climbs, however, the effort was worth it. Our trip was well organized and everything was taken care of. We were overwhelmed by the hospitality as it was as beautiful as the views during the trek. Thanks to Vertex Holiday and the team for your help in making this trip a memorable experience. If you are looking for a wonderful trekking experience, then we would recommend Vertex Holiday. Wish you good luck for future and we'll definitely see again Eric & Sophie

As this is a short moderate trek, does not involve high altitude, except for a day at Poon Hill and Ghorepani. Nearly all year one can join for this trek, except the wet monsoon times of July and August. The best time is in the spring and autumn seasons. When the weather is fine around Nepal, however Himalayan weather sometimes is unpredictable and depends upon the region of trekking and other holidays in Nepal and altitude wise, higher above 1,600 meters day times are sunny most of the time with cooler morning and evening time. Morning and night can be much cooler in both the spring and autumn seasons, winter is another good time for short treks and hikes, but much colder morning and nighttime with short days due to sun-light hours.
Our guides are fully prepared for this type of situation, carrying a medical kit and the guides have gone medical and First Aid training. If it’s very serious needs to be evacuated by any means of various quick transports, hiring a vehicle to reach the patient at the nearest best medical center and hospitals or by Helicopter service.
All villages and lodges on route trekking have electricity, either run by main hydropower, some places have their own private solar power. Where one needs to pay the fee for charging per item as per hour, where you guide will inform you.
