Annapurna Sanctuary Trek - REI

After spending a lot of time researching trekking companies in 2011 for our Kilimanjaro trip, we decided to make it really easy on ourselves and just go with REI on the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek.  A few of our friends have gone on trips with REI to Patagonia and Nepal and said REI does a great job with logistics and comfort.  Sounds good to me.  In order to make sure everyone in our group could get in on the same trip, we book our spots a year out.  It seems like a long time out, but the time will go by quickly and we were able to pick the exact dates we wanted for the trip.
