This November, it was the second time we visited Nepal and the Himalayas. Both times, we had Ram as our guide for the treks, and I can tell he is one of the most friendly, open, and experienced guides on the Khumbu Valley trails.
Currently, he owns a trekking company, and I wouldn't bother looking for another one for my next adventure. Five years ago, we did the classic EBC 3-week trek, including the Cho-la pass and Kalapathar peak.
We last tried the Nirekha and Lobuche East peaks and it was an amazing and intense camping experience. I would happily recommend the Nepal Hiking Team to anyone interested in seeing Nepal's fabulous Himalayan mountain range.
