"Magnificent Travels through Nepal & Tibet"
I had the trip of a lifetime during my Everest Base Camp trek, which was made possible by Dawa (who was our guide) and his team at Traveltimes Treks.
Dawa has extensive experience in trekking the Everest region which clearly shows up in the vast amount of knowledge he possesses, be it about the mountains, the cultural nuances, the cuisines, or the coffee shops. He knows every nook and corner of the region and can instantly tell you the name of each and every peak that you might encounter during your trek.
We were a small group of four with varying levels of stamina and endurance, and therefore different trekking speeds and different requirements. Dawa was extremely accomodative and patient and worked with each of us to ensure that we were well within our own individual comfort zones throughout.
The first thing Dawa told us upon landing in Kathmandu was “The only thing you can expect with 100% certainty in this trek is uncertainty”. Wise words they were, we realised as we got stuck in Lukla for three days due to fog and I was on the verge of missing my return flight to India. When the weather cleared, the first thing the Traveltimes team ensured was that I reached the international airport directly from Lukla so I dont miss my flight.
The next time I am ever in Nepal, there is no second thought who I would approach – it has to be only Traveltimes Treks!
