Many thanks to Kumar for persuading us to trek with Mactrek's guide. Dambar was a great guide. He helped us through the difficult bits, sang us songs, told us jokes and played cards with us. He was a great companion for the nineteen days around the circuit. Will be back – next stop Everest Base Camp!
Paul has said it all – we had planned to trek by ourselves, but the best decision we made was to join Mactrek. Dambar is the best! Not only for the things that Paul has written but also for his patience + manner in helping us (me in particular) get through the hard bits. I am looking forward to meeting Dambar and all the Mactrek people again in the not too distant future!
