Got in touch with Incredible Treks in 2019, after reading all the excellent reviews. Supposedly to go in 2020 but lockdown. Decided to get in touch with them again in 2022 and no regrets. Nabin and Krishna were so helpful and friendly, glad I have booked the trip with them.
The guide they have chosen for us was beyond excellent and not forgetting the porter, without him carrying my duffle, I ain’t getting anywhere. Our guide name is Yam
and porter, Jonath, both of them are Sherpas. Yam is a really strong and knowledgeable guide, as well as attentive and caring.
I actually got altitude sickness after returning from base camp, symptoms I got was headache, nausea and loss of appetite. Yam was really attentive and caring, immediately shared with me that I could do a detour instead of forcing myself doing Cho La Pass the next day. He pointed out in the map that I could take another route for my consideration. I went with his advice and the next day after descending from Gorakshep, the symptoms gone immediately. I am glad I took his advice and didn’t force myself otherwise I may not make it to Gokyo.
And while on our way back down to Lukla, our guide Yam also tried to check on our pace, sharing with us where we should stay so we will not need to walk too long the next day. I’m really glad to have him as my guide and should I return again to trekking again one day, I will want to request for his service again. Also, he could speak fluent French, très bien.
I don’t know what else to share but if you want an excellent experience from booking to trekking with excellent guides and porters, Incredible Treks is where you should go to.
