Traveller reviews
We passed through small villages we'd never have found on our own. The porters were looked after properly, which mattered to us.
A once-in-a-lifetime route, and every hard hour was worth it. Good value for what's included, and no surprise costs on the trail.
The mountain views on the third morning left us completely speechless. Communication before departure was clear and nothing was left to chance.
A tough but rewarding climb that we're still talking about months later. Would trek with this team again without a second thought.
