Three Peaks Climbing Pokalde Island and Lobuche Climbing
It is a trustworthy company for Three Peaks Climbing Pokalde Island and Lobuche. With full arrangements for fixing climbing permits of Three Peaks Climbing Pokalde, Island & Lobuche, we cooperated online regarding the exchange of official documents, such as submitting our details with passport copies and flight details. There was absolutely no problem with the payment.
We received top class service during the whole climbing duration. Ang-Dendi Sherpa, our climbing guide had a top-level of technical climbing skills. Together, we did a successful climb to the summit of all three peaks. As we love climbing, we enjoyed every moment of the climb. Many thanks to all the Sherpa team members who did all the hard job from carrying all the necessities and with humble and cooperative nature. Our kitchen crew provided us with hygienic meals and served very well.
We have a lot of pictures from the climbing days, we want to do more climbing with Nepal Guide Treks in future. We heartily recommend this company for professional service while you explore the hidden corners of the mountain country of Nepal.
