Amazing Trip
It was such an amazing experience of lifetime. Every single day of the trek was so breathtaking that I found myself lost in the world of paradise. The massif mountain range, clean & fresh environment, cultural villages and loving local people are just incredible. In fact: It is so difficult to describe with just few words.
The Trek Through team is so cooperative. They manage everything as promised and made sure we are enjoying all the time. The price was good, very knowledgeable and helpful staff. Highly recommended.
