Wilderness Excursion Kathmandu has Pradip running the show. Can not ask for anyone nicer, more helpful, more patient or more knowledgeable than him. Honestly, my whole experience in researching the tailored trek I wanted to do with my teenage daughter was made so smooth with Pradip's help. The level of comfort I had on arriving in Kathmandu knowing everything was in place was super. Our mountain guide and porter for our trek were equally brilliant. Our Sherpa guide was female which is an excellent thing. Dayangee was just so lovely and looked after my daughter and I. She handled all the checking in etc. with our tea-lodge accommodation and guided us brilliantly in the Himalaya. Our Sherpa porter Lakpa was equally lovely. He looked after me like a brother. Our connections will remain for life.
Just finished my first trek and cannot compliment Pradip enough. We went from Lukla to Tengboche and his friendliness, knowledge of the area and flawless planning made this trip a truly lifetime experience. Perhaps most important, during the trip Pradip evaluated my trekking experience (none) and my fitness level (moderate) and adjusted our itinerary so that I was never required to go beyond my abilities and could really enjoy what I was doing and appreciate where I was. In my mind, that is the mark of a truly professional guide.
