5.00Thanks to all but it was an absolutely incredible Trip once in a lifetime experience with the most sustainable, supportive and fun guides with cooperation- all of them From the briefing, pick up and starting the trek it was faultlessly organised and made you feel very looked after and absolutely no need to worry about anything. We managed to go at our own pace up the trickier sections with regular checkpoints and lots of information along the way. All abilities are supported by the fantastic guides of this Tour company.
All was Excellent and beyond the comments.
