Uttarakhand in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp. Hotels were clean and central, which saved a lot of time. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones. Worth every rupee.

Well organised from the pickup onwards. The daily distances were honest about what they'd be. Good value for what's included.

The route is beautiful and the pacing was sensible — nobody was rushed on the climb. Worth every rupee.

Uttarakhand in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Meals were good throughout and the vegetarian options weren't an afterthought. Solid operator.

The trek itself is good but the group was too large for the trail on the summit day. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones.

Did this over 4 days and it was the best walking I've done in years. No hesitation recommending them.
