This was my first ever trek so I didn't know exactly what to expect, but it turned out to be quite an adventure ! The trek is challenging and cruel at times, but mostly it is an impressive and rewarding experience which I can only recommend. The organization from the local tour specialists was pretty good, transfers, accommodation and service was on a very high level. The best part was spending trek time with my guide, Sudip, who was super helpful and well educated about the trekking and mountains in general. On several occasions he made the trip much more comfortable, whether by providing a good advice with altitude related symptoms, helping with my heavy backpack or just setting the mood for the day. One word of advice, and this probably goes for all Nepal treks - bring more cash than you think you need ! In the lodges, you will want to have drinks or food not covered by tour's standard menu, as well as some showers etc. The tipping seems to be expected for all services in Nepal, so keep that in mind. The Lukla flights are highly unpredictable, you might have to invest in the helicopter to get back to Kathmandu in time for your international flight (happened to me since my return flight was canceled due to bad weather). All in all, 5/5, would go again :)
UN VIAJE INCREIBLE. NEPAL SIEMPRE DEJA HUELLA Era la tercera vez que recorra las tierras de Nepal, tras los fantsticos valles del Everest, pens que ya no poda ver paisajes ms bonitos, Este trek tiene increbles paisajes. Una vez ms gracias a Buddha Treks que nos acompa y gestin nuestro viaje segun nuestras necesidades. MUCHAS GRACIAS DIL y PREM!!
It was great! The guids know what they talking about and are very kind! The trekking route is beautifull. I must say it is a real trekking so the whole trek you are walking there is not much time to relax.
