Most Inspirational Moment
We were woken early on the morning that we were at Thyenboche to come and look at the view. The sky was a brilliant blue, the air was cold but the sun was out. We were thrilled to get our first view of Everest, nestling behind Nuptse and Lhotse. It was beautiful and I know that that vista will stay in my memory for ever.
Thoughts on Group Leader
What can I say about Pasang. His beaming smile met us at the airport after our long, tiring journey. He was entertaining, bright, efficient, helpful, charming and knowlegeable. He assisted us with our many queries throughout our holiday, he gave us good advice and seemingly effortlessly guided us to our destination. I think I can speak for the whole group in saying we felt very lucky indeed to have Pasang along with us.
Advice for Potential Travellers
I would simply reiterate the advice given by exodus. some of the walks are challenging because of the altitude and therefore I would advise potential travellers to get themselves as fit as possible prior to their holiday. although one cannot always avoid altitude sickness, you can cope with the effects if you are fit and well in other respects.
