He reached out before the trek to check our gear and offered valuable advice based on the weather — which proved absolutely right.Throughout the journey, Sam was calm, organised, and quietly confident. He managed all logistics — meals, tea houses, and timing — with precision, while giving us the freedom to explore and enjoy the trek at our own pace.Sam is clearly respected among other guides, who often sought his advice. He demonstrated deep knowledge of Nepal’s culture, history, and geography, always answering our questions with insight and patience.We always felt safe and supported, even in challenging conditions. Sam noticed our love for nature and waterfalls and somehow always found tea houses in the most peaceful, beautiful settings.We trekked with Sam and one porter, who was young, hardworking, and full of enthusiasm. Sam guided him patiently, keeping everything running smoothly and holding the group together with calm leadership.This trek was far more than just a physical journey — it was a deeply meaningful experience made possible by Sam’s expertise and character. We left Nepal full of gratitude and admiration.If you’re considering the Annapurna Circuit, request Sam Tamang. You’ll be in the best possible hands.
