    This is my 5th private trek with HH after Kedarkantha. har ki dun, KGL, Buran ghati, Hampta pass, The ground staff and the cook deserve special mention for taking good care of us and serving us delicious meals all times . Our trek lead suresh, kamlesh, kuldeep Rawat ji made sure we traversed difficult sections with ease when the body fails to listen to the mind. What I liked about HH and kuldeep ji was how they patiently allowed each one of us to find our own pace and not be pressurized by a norm.

    Dayara Bugyal (4th trek with them) we are from Bangalore Fantastic trip, extremely supportive folks, always so cheerful, even with 10inches of snow around; bringing hot pasta to your tent at 4pm and shaking the snow off your tent at 3am! They are totally reliable and safe, and help you feel totally confident in yourself and your own ability! Thank you team Himalayan Hikers. Shukriya
