I loved the way you differentiate both the treks and love from Nepal and India ❤

[mingology]

I just completed the EBC 10 days ago, to me it’s an experience of a lifetime! Highly recommended if budget allows…

[garykent]

I've done both, the Annapurna Circuit with Thorung la and Poon hill was 19 days. They are 2 of the most beautiful treks I've ever done, i loved the awesome feeling of looking at Everest from Kallapatta, but equally, i loved the slower pace and timeless views on the Annapurna circuit. My advice to anyone is to do both, it's impossible for me to pick a clear winner. Trekking in Nepal is a life changer, for sure. Great video guys ❤

In EBC trek we stayed in yet mountain hotel in Phakding and Namche Baazar ..the hotels in both places are extremely good with heated mattresses and room heaters. We went 7th to 11th December 2022

Annapurna circuit is more varios about village and landscape and cheaper...

Thanks for the video Alice.
I'm going to take your advice

[einezcrespo]

Oh wow. Would love to do these treks especially ACT but my hypertension may be a factor. Maybe in my dreams or the next life.

For someone who has led many trips in each location over the last 30 years, I vote for Langtang! It (Langtang) is like these two areas were 20+ years ago in many ways. However it is also becoming much less appealing (as are both EBC and TAC) due to the impact of the number of tourists.

Very complete video, many thanks for helping us making our choice !

[thenormaltraveler]

Hi Alice, Im planning on doing the 3 passes Trek in a couple of weeks (My 4th trip to Nepal), but was also considering adding Annapurna Circuit for the first time, However based on online reviews, many have said that Annapurna circuit is mainly a roadtrek that people are using jeeps to cross ( with exception of Thorong La Pass ) people are saying that the trek is hindered with vehicles kicking up dust and so on. Is this correct ?

While the Khumbu is untouched by vehicles, Annapurna Circuit is now accessible by jeeps.

your advice regarding this woud be greatly appreciated.

[bobmarley]

Thank you kindly very much appreciated.... Happy new year... I want to do

[drumetu]

Higklights depend on what everyone is looking for. For me, the ACT had many many more highlights and was generally much more enjoyable

[karipintakivi]

At 9:55 you say "same trail there and back" which is not totally true. There is a much better route available which should be taken on the way up, namely the magnificent High Scenic Trail via Mong La - Phortse - Pangpoche, not just walk twice through Tengboche.

Best country to live ..Imma

.❤Greatful for yost hows our natural beauty to the world

[gamgee]

Is Annapurna Circuit the same as Annapurna Base Camp or most people call it as ABC Trek?

[Ricardo]
