TLC ADVENTURES & GETAWAYS

(Best Introductory Himalayan Trek for Beginners)

If traveling is your passion, if hiking is your hobby, if adventure is your love and you are dedicated to your passion, then without a second thought just add the beauty of this land to your bucket list of places to visit while you can.

Come Sept 2024, Team TLC will embark on yet another breathtaking adventure to the awesome mountain trails of Nepal! We've been organizing treks & scenic trips there over the years and have since brought more than 30 groups to Nepal with a 100% safety record. This is because we have our Nepal Partners & own TLC Team of Licensed Trekking Guides, porters, chefs etc.

Yes members, let's head to the Top of the World once again to admire, marvel and experience the awesome Himalayan Mountain Ranges! We're talking of snow-capped peaks, alpine forests, tranquil mountain villages, natural hot springs, caves, waterfalls and on-rushing rivers.

This time we're taking you to view the Annapurna Mountain Ranges including the scenic Poon Hill Trek because of its diversity, abundant wild-flowers and captivating views of the Himalayan mountain ranges. The main highlight of this trip planned specially as an Introductory Trek for first timers to Nepal is the early morning hike to Poon Hill to catch the spectacular sunrise over the Himalayas. The views stretch as far as the eye can see - north towards Tibet, west towards the Dhaulagiri Himal, and east towards the Annapurna Himalayas.

Considered to be one of the best introduction to altitude trekking for beginner hikers, this trail offers spectacular views for those who are thinking of doing the ABC or Everest trek one day.

Besides trekking, your 9D itinerary also includes a chance to try a 4 Wheel Drive through the mountains, taking cool baths at the various waterfalls, crystal clear lakes, ancient temples, time to shop & explore the city of Pokhara & Kathmandu etc. Yes .. they are all included in your itinerary including all meals during the trek, hot-water, hot-showers, phone -charging etc!

And if you're game, how about trying para-gliding etc (optional) at the Top of the World!

"My 4th trip to Nepal and I must say this is definitely the most scenic trek that I've done having joined various Meetup Groups. The team spirit is awesome. The Leaders & Guides were helpful and caring and we had great views of the Annapurna mountain ranges right in front of our rooms!" Alvin

“Being a first time trekker to Nepal, David Lim, the Organiser of the TLC Group has been very helpful and resourceful in planning the entire itinerary, with provision of sufficient experienced trekker guides to ensure that none of the slower trekkers were left behind the trail. Throughout the trip, he made sure that our meals and accommodation were well-taken care of. The trip was fun - well planned with trekking, sightseeing and some shopping. I enjoyed the entire trip very much and would highly recommend to all interested hikers and trekkers who might want to join the adventure trips in the future organised by TLC. Thank you David for making my this trekking trip a memorable one.”
