The accommodation throughout was excellent and I felt totally safe and cared for throughout the trip. The guides were respectful, caring, attentive, efficient and knowledgable. I could not have wished for better.

I wish to thank you particularly for organising such a wonderful experience for me and for your personal interest in my welfare which included the meal with your Dutch friends. You made me feel very welcome.

The trip itself was challenging for me. But I am pleased that I perservered with the gentle encouragement of Prakash. There are no big mountains in Australia so I was a little unprepared. But it was well and truly worth it. As Bhairis, my guide on the way back, said: "Nepal is a little bit up and a little bit down."
