The trail was epic ! The best experience of my life ! Our guide Lucy managed logistics very well. She was knowledgeable and kept us moving together well. Our chef, Wenceslao needs to be crowned as the star of the trip. I’m vegan and he made me food that exceeded any expectations and beyond. How he made such delicious meals on top of a mountain baffles me. Shout out to all the porters of #5 for their superhero power of getting our gear up the mountains.

The tour was well organized and managed. The gadenture staff was always professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. And particularly the CEO Leo was able to keep the group together despite significant differences in the hiking speed.
