With a local agency booked from France, the price is around 1000 € all-inclusive: transport from Kathmandu, a guide-porter (10 kg) just for me, food and lodging, and flexible dates. Half the price of a French agency with a group and rigid schedule. You’ll need to add a "serious" tip though.

Hi, there were only a few scattered patches of snow on the ground. I got caught in a snow shower at the starting point of the highest section. I gave up on summiting the 5,000-meter peak because of the wind and the condition of the people who’d done it the day before on their way back. My only disappointment was the unbelievable air pollution in Kathmandu...

Hi, I did this trek in a longer version with some variations and returned via the sacred lake last March. The weather was really good. I had a porter-guide (booked through a local agency from France) just for me, which allowed me to fully enjoy this amazing trek despite days with 1,200 m of elevation gain. I’m 74 years old and somewhat trained, mainly from walking in the city at low altitudes... We climbed up to 4,450 meters without any AMS issues thanks to a very gradual ascent. However, the first few days around 3,000 meters and above left me short of breath, but I adapted quickly. For me, this trek was fantastic with some really great encounters. Alain

Bonjour, c'est exactement ce que nous avons fait à 5 motos en juin dernier: fantastique! Tout est à voir mais surtout Kinsale, toute la côte est et ses péninsules et ses falaise, le gap of Dunloe (route très sauvage), l'ambiance de Galway, le lac de Doo lough, la cote est vers Malin head et les wicklow mountains. Beau voyage!

Ps : un truc a penser un raccord souple pour refaire la pression des pneus, toutes les stations sont équipées de pistolets rigides qui ne se raccordent pas facilement sur les valves de moto
