Our Network
The Swotah Travel & Adventure Family
Annapurna Trekking is one of six Nepali-owned sister companies within the Swotah Travel & Adventure family — each a deep specialist in their own region of the Himalayas.
One Vision, Six Specialists
Built by AJ — Nepal's Most Trusted Himalayan Guide
Ajay Kumar Shrestha (AJ) founded Annapurna Trekking and Swotah Travel & Adventure with the same conviction: the best way to experience the Himalayas is through guides who grew up there. Every company in the family shares that DNA.
Rather than creating one large generalist company, AJ built a network of focused specialists — each with deep expertise in a specific region or travel style. When you book with Annapurna Trekking, you get the knowledge of the whole family behind your trek.
The network is anchored by Swotah Travel & Adventure, Nepal's TripAdvisor Hall of Fame company, which provides the operational backbone, compliance, and international partnerships for the whole group.
