Despite a three-hour flight delay to Pokhara due to weather, the team handled everything perfectly, and the transition into the trek remained smooth and stress-free. The organization was top-notch. We really felt safe and well-managed throughout. The Team Our guide, Geli Sherpa, was outstanding. He was professional, clear about the daily plans, and knowledgeable. He shared insights into mountain life, Sherpa culture, and his own personal history, which added a lot to our walks. He joined us for card games a few of the evenings. Our porter, Peam Sherpa, did an amazing job, we were so grateful for his hard work and support along the way. Expertise in the Field The highlight of the trip’s management was Geli’s attentiveness to the conditions. By communicating with other guides and monitoring the weather, he suggested we reach Base Camp a day early to beat a shift in the weather. This small adjustment resulted in "crazy good" weather and perfectly clear skies for both sunrise and sunset at ABC. This expertise and flexibility made a massive difference in our trip. Final Thoughts The contact with Mountain Delights feels very personal, and their field experience is evident in everything they do. I am already looking forward to my next adventure with them!Darcy PUnited StatesOn 2024-11-27
Mountain Delights- a delightful choice!
I had the opportunity to trek with two experienced guides on two different occasions. From the start to finish, my guides took good care of me making sure that I enjoyed the trekking. Moreover, if you are looking for a trekking agency that gives back to the local community, Mountain Delights is definitely the one you can support.
