Kalyan was great. He we so personally engaged in the trip communicating each morning and evening to the group, having special unexpected treats (goodies for our morning porridge, dessert), endless curiosity and willingness to answer questions. The porters were great, cheerful, fun, hard working, professional. The choice to have Archana lead us in morning stretching and yoga and spontaneous fun. The pacing of the trek (easier first two days).
Overall, it was such a wonderful and memorable trip largely due to Kalyan himself and what he prepared and offered to us. What I found really exceptional: Kalyan and his staff's warm welcome, treating us as family; introducing us to Nepali culture through food, meeting locals and activists like Margo, attending "poojas" at monasteries . . . The small surprises and delights really helped us keep up morale from sprinkling seeds on our morning porridge...
Me and my partner had the most magnificent experience with Elite Earth Travel. Elite earth is a company which protects the environment by using vegan meal arrangements, cruelty-free travel practices and a sustainable approach to tourism. Neither my partner nor I were vegan prior to this trip, however the food options were varied and plentiful and we always had enough fuel for the hikes. Our guide was knowledgeable and we felt extremely safe in his hands...
