And since we had a cloudy morning, he sent me some of his own photos of what the Himalayan peaks looked like. Super nice guy and would def go again with friends!”

“Amazing view with the sun rises over the mountains, the “little” trekking down quite hard with knee problems like me but with the support from my guide, I finally made it. My guide Shambhu is a good guy, not over talked, just appropriate but good.”
