Exactly the trekking experience I was looking for

Bhumi was a fantastic guide. He is easy to talk to, extremely competent, patient, and an all-around nice guy. I highly recommend trekking with him! From the get-go, he put me at ease and inspired confidence. He encouraged me to proceed at a comfortable pace and to take time to enjoy the experience. While the trek was harder/longer than I had expected, he delivered bite-sized pieces of information and positive reinforcement as needed. He offered extra support and was always confident we’d reach our destination. When I developed painful blisters on Day 2, he adapted our path to be less strenuous (longer, but not as steep). I appreciated that he noted my food preferences and placed our orders in advance so that waiting time was minimized. When my phone battery was low, he became not only my guide, but also the trip photographer! We enjoyed spotting a huge variety of butterflies and mushrooms, almost as much as we enjoyed snacking on the bountiful golden raspberries we found! Thank you Bhumi and High Route Adventure for an unforgettable adventure!
