Recommended! - Fantastic tour with beautiful views over mountains. Tasty momo with chicken for lunch in Australian camp. Trekking with some physical effort but it's worth it. Professional guide, Dipak.

Lovely guided hike with fantastic views - Initially I was a bit concerned that this hike would be too difficult, as I knew the first section up to Australian Camp was very steep. Our guide came to our accommodation the day before to discuss the trip with us and he assured us that if we were struggling, there were options to make the hike shorter if necessary. However, on the day it was fine, yes there are literally over a thousand steps up to Australian Camp, but our guide took it slowly and allowed us to rest whenever we needed to. Once at the top the views were fantastic and well worth the effort. The remainder of the hike was very easy. A very enjoyable day.

My guide, Dipak, knew a lot about the area and was very experienced. He was also very fun to talk with. I highly recommend this day hike!</p>

Our Guide Dipak was great and very accommodating, he even recommended/arranged other tours/activities for us. Not to be missed especially if you have half a day free.</p>
