Warm and welcoming journey to ABC Our trip to ABC was surprisingly great! Not being in the high season, we were expecting some rain but got some only a few times. Our guide, Dharma, was entertaining and knew a lot about the mountains and the villages we visited. He was really fun, and his stories added to the trip. The pace of walk was always to our desire and we never got stressed about our ascension. He was assisted by Arpan, who was as caring as himself. He was always there to answer our questions, play cards and drink a tea with the group at night. There was also Pasang, porter for this time, who was a bit shy but helped as much as the others for everything. All in all, a great trip, accomodation was great and even if the weather was mostly cloudy, we got to see almost everything we wanted! Thanks a lot!
It was a tough trip, especially the hill up to Namche Bazar but it was so enjoyable too. The tea lodges were so much better than we thought they would be, food was excellent and plentiful.
An incredible experience! Lovely Arrangements! Great Guide! It is hard to describe in words how beautiful the EBC trek is in itself. The changing landscapes from lush green to barren beautiful peaks as you gain height. The ever delectable food and adorable hospitality of Nepalese people that doesn't stop to surprise you no matter how extreme the living conditions get. In the end the trek will teach you how to cherish simple pleasures in life. What made the trek more memorable was to have a great guide and team by your side. Many thanks to Ganga & his team for making our trip so smooth from start to end. Be it answering our innumerable questions before the trek or making arrangements through it. It was all made easy for us. All we had to do daily was trek, eat, relax & sleep. We were lucky to have good weather on the first day to Lukla and surprise we had an upgrade to a helicopter ride. If you have an option then do ask for Dinesh as your guide. He was very patient, extremely hospitable & very helpful during our rescue. We were lucky enough to complete the trek till base camp, however, at Gorak Shep my husband got sick with diarrhoea and we were to be rescued to Kathmandu. Our guide, Ganga & Balaram were very helpful in assisting in a speedy rescue. I cannot thank them enough for it. We were on a roller coaster of emotions throughout the trek. Overwhelmed by the beauty of it, thankful for reaching the end but it was two torturous days at Gorak Shep when we had to wait for the rescue due to bad weather. During this tough time I had the opportunity to meet other guides from the same company. The way the entire team came together to coordinate and help us get immediate rescue as soon as weather was clear, was just impeccable.
