Who could have coped with three American septuagenarians (70 plus year olds) who insisted on a cultural trek as well as high mountain experiences? Gopi and his team did. They kept us safe, well fed, challenged and laughing with song and dance as we hiked from valley to peak. They called us their “Didi” and introduced us to their customs and the villagers. What a grand trip it was. We highly recommend this trekking company to anyone, whether seven years old or seventy years old.
