Testimonials

"I know Sangam since 5 years. He was my guide during two trekkings. Sangam is a very reliable man. He's well educated and a good leader of his pack of sherpa's and porters. Besides he has eyes for the challenges and gifts of the nature he tells a lot of the Nepales culture. He also brought me in contact with the common Nepalese people. I'm looking forward to my third trip with him. I don't want another man than him.""

In 2007 I made with 5 friends a trekking around the Annapurna, in which Sangam was our guide. He had totally organised our trip except the bookings for the airflights. We had given him our wishes about length of the daytrips and the comfort of the hotels and the lodges. Transport from the airport, hotels in Kathmandu, sherpa's lodges, everything was perfectly organised.

We had made in correspondence with Sangam a planning for the trip of 15 days and Sangam organised during the trip, depending of the progress of our walking, local lodges with very good local food. Most lodges were small and cosy and we were able to have good contacts with the owners. The lodges were sober and well cleaned and most of the time with warm water.

Every evening there was a briefing about the next day and the other sherpa's were also involved. During the trip contact with them was growing and we appreciated this very much.Sangam gave also a lot of information about Nepal, about the people living in Nepal, about Hindoism and Bhoeddism, about the political situation. We spoke a lot with the other sherpa's and the owners of the lodges, so we learned really about Nepal. All this walking and climbing was done in a very relaxed atmosphere, and also his way of organising is very relaxed. At the same time we had a very safe feeling of being there, while we were making such an unknown trip I look back with a fantastic feeling and I will probably go back with my wife to Nepal and then I will certainly call Sangam again!

I glady recommend Sangam Sherpa to anyone who wants to make a trekking and wants to get to know Nepal. I enjoyed a really great Anapurna-trekking in October 2007. Sangam Sherpa did a wonderful job. He managed to gather a well balanced group of sherpa's. Together they made it possible for us to simply focus on the beautiful surroundings, the people, the physical challenges etc. Sangam succeeded every day in finding the very special and good places to have lunch and to stay for the night. His special quality was to talk with us every night for about an hour, telling us everything we wanted to know about Nepal, and his traditions, culture, politics, religion etc. We had some beautiful discussions, that were enriching for all of us.

I still get a warm feeling when I think of the trip around the Annapurna that I made with my five friends in oktober 2007 in Nepal. The mountains, the snow, the water, the rocks, the plants and the musrooms were amazing. The towns with theshops, historical buildings and tempels were beautiful. The people we met smiled from ear to ear when we said the magic word: 'Namaste' . We had great food, especially in the litlle villages. And we didn't even get lost! For this I want to thank our super-sherpa Sangam and his sherpa's Lakpa, Mingma, Pasang, Rikothee and Sager. Sangam was a firm leader, who told us many fine stories about the culture, the religions and the nature of Nepal. I also respected his efforts for saving the wood in the mountain-villages. Thanks again and I will return to Nepal to make more trips with you and your sherpa's.
