Every once in a while we receive thank-you notes and e-mails from happy and satisfied clients  for making their trips memorable (in a good way!:-)). Here are some  comments we received  from clients who went on a trekking expedition to Yala Peak, Langtang region in October 2011.

"…I was with Trapp Lewis and his group on the trek to Langtang and Yala.
I just wanted to let you know that the trip went very well. Due to snow conditions we could not push up to Yala peak itself which was a shame. However, we had a great time and really enjoyed the trekking and also the climbing/mountaineering instruction which we got. We were very impressed by Nima, Dayula, Asha and Dawa who all took very good care of us and also taught us a lot about mountains etc. It was a very well organized trip. Samudra’s help in Kathmandu was also much appreciated by all of us.

We are all looking forward to our next trip to Nepal.

Many thanks and best wishes."
