What Our Clients Say

Hello, Arun!

I hope you are keeping well this winter, and getting some rest from what was probably a busy trekking season, last year.

I just wanted to say 'thank you', again, for providing for my accomodations, logistics, and guide/porter arrangements on last October's Nanda Devi Santurary trek. I truly had a fantastic experience. The trip was professionally organized. I was well-looked after by guide, Anil, and I highly recommend him for your future treks. Please relay my recommendation of him on to your senior management, and share my 'thanks' with him. You also provided for very kindly guides and a pleasant host family in Mr. Singh and his wife Sita. ..

I hope to do another trek with your company in the future. Again, thank you for everything!

All the best in the New Year,

Kipp Bajaj

Dear Arun,

I am writing with regard to my experience in India.

I would like to thank you very much. I have had a wonderful time and feel that I have been looked after very well. The trek was a great success and all transfers have been well managed. Should I return to India to trek again in the future I shall not hestitate to use your services again and I shall particularly ask for Baldev Rana as my guide.

Similarly I would recommend the same to friends and family. Baldev took great care to satistfy all my needs and is a true gentleman.

Many thanks once again,

Alec Bird

Hello, Arun!

We would like to send a feedback about our trip with your agency in Gangtok.

First of all we would like to thank you for the very good organization.

Our guide D.K. was professional, punctual and spoke good English; we enjoyed talking with him and learning more about your country.The porters did a good job too and the cook was excellent.

Actually we were not used to trek with so many people in the staff: we had only 10kg luggage each to be carried, so 3 porters plus 3 dzoos looked a bit exagerated.

Anyway we enjoyed a lot this experience in Sikkim!

Massimo Rapetti

First of all would like to extend my thanks for all the arrangements and care that was taken. Our trip was most memorable. Would like to highlight some key aspects of the trip:

1. Our driver Kundan was just amazing. His driving was skillful. He was warm and his communication skills were good. When we did encounter or needed his help during our stay he made sure that he did all that he could. Having someone like him on board is definitely an asset to your organisation.

2. Accommodation: The rooms were well maintained. Amenities good. The view was lovely. The food was lip smacking delicious. There was variety every day of our stay and the quality was good. All the service personnel at the resort - from reception, managers, maintenance, housekeeping to the restaurant staff were warm and friendly and made our stay a good experience.

3. Both our guides, Jitendra and Sameen knew what they were talking about and took us through the safari. Elephant Safari was definitely a highlight of the trip. It was available at the resort it was convenient for us and it was well organised.

4. Tanmay who has been my point of contact for this entire package has been most prompt and efficient in addressing all queries and providing me with the information that I need. Definitely job well done!

I will definitely recommend to you to those interested and look forward to doing this again.

With regards,Rhea D'Souza,

We were delighted with your services because of your efficiency and attention to detail, and I'm happy to let you know something about the trip. Jerry was really pleased, as he told you in the car, that you answered his email enquiries so promptly and kept strictly to the point, not sending him information about things he hadn't enquired about, but thoughtfully working out exactly what it was we were after. The trip was exactly what we had requested, in every detail.

Thank you for doing such a great job giving us an outstanding holiday. We will definitely be in touch again next time we want to travel in India.
