Have just returned from this adventure, and feel compelled to write...the trip was one of the most fantastic, memorable experiences we have enjoyed as a family. We feel deeply privileged to have visited all 3 countries and meet the people, Cambodia in particular, and Exodus should be congratulated on delivering a hectic but manageable itinerary, with exemplary organisation, and guides who really helped us connect with the people, culture and surroundings. We were also impressed with the ethical choices made for excursions.
The mountains were high, the sky was blue the group were lovely and the chalet and our hosts Oliver and Elaine were incredibly welcoming. A fantastic week, full of amazing scenery, interesting people and lots of laughter!
From my first E-mail exchange with Chhatra I knew that I was in good hands. He was very quick in replying to my many questions and was very flexible with my starting date. I soon found myself picking up my sleeping bag and trekking poles (which the tour company was happy to let me borrow) from Chhatra's office, ready to start my trek to Everest Base Camp. My guide; Ram, was great! I would not have survived without him. He was quite knowledgeable about the trail and never became annoyed at my many questions, in particular 'which mountain is that' and 'which one's Everest' Ram always made sure I was feeling well before we began our trek each day and checked my oxygen saturation and pulse almost every night. During our trek Ram would let me walk in front so I could set the pace, I never felt like I was too slow or that I couldn't keep up. My overall experience was very positive. Highly Recommend!
