Moti was an outstanding guide on our hike through the foothills of the Annapurna to Australian Base Camp, with a visit and lunch in Dhampus. He spoke excellent English and was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, culture, and mountains. The hike was well-paced, scenic, and enjoyable throughout.
