Marta· September 3rd, 2024Amazing experience. Well organized tour with fabulous guides ( Sigga & Snypes) that quickly reacted when the weather has changed and plans needed to be adjusted. The route is beyond beautiful.Trip date: August 2024- FBFlorian· August 27th, 2024This was the last trip of the season. there were 2 feet of snow on the mountain and it was known that Noro virus had infec ted many guests on the cabins. The sanitary conditions in the first hut were dismal, there were latrine style and very smelly toilets. In the second hut, the sower was only lke warm, which was uncomfortable considering the icy cold wind. Some of our members had to double- bunk with strangers. The food was not bad. In our group of 16, there were very different levels of mountaineering experience and fitness. Our tour guide was always in the front, not knowing how some opf the weaker guest were struggling. There should have been two guide, one in the front and one on the back, especially considering the treacherous blizzard conditions. In my opinion, this trek should have had: 2 guides, Much better and safer sanitary conditions of toilets and cooking facilities Guests should have been given the option to cancel the trek, considering the blizzard conditions and the known outbreak of Noro virus. The number of guest should have been limited to 10. The rescue and infectious teams were not equipped to handle on outbreak of Noro virus.Show more

- MWMarina· September 14th, 2022The hike was beautiful and very well organized. Our guide - Yonn - did an amazing job of keeping a large group organized and coordinated. His attention to detail, description of locations, local history and knowledge was a great added value. Food was delicious and satisfying. Would suggest limiting group size as we were a large group. Also, the description on tour radar could have more accurately described the hike - providing elevation/topograhic profiles to show the terrain would have been helpful. Despite some challenging weather - would definitely do this again. Have already recommended it to many people! This trek was a wonderful way to see some rugged and beautiful landscape and really get away from it all.Show moreTrip date: August 2022
