Prem - Weather god, protector of stomachs, and guide extraordinaire!I cannot speak highly enough of Prem and Mountain Hawk trekking. Prem led us on an amazing 22 trek through Gokyo Ri, Cho La Pass and the summit of Island Peak (6187m). It was the adventure of a lifetime and Prem made sure it was perfect. He had everything organised and he quickly adapted plans and arrangements when things needed to change. He managed our acclimatisation well, taking us up slowly and monitoring our O2 each day. He also kept us away from dodgy foods and no one got sick. He also has a great sense of humour and was really part of our team. And the porters are fantastic! The Island Peak summit was as amazing as the climb was hard. Without Prem's acclimatisation and preparation we wouldn't have made it. I would highly recommend Prem and Mountain Hawk trekking to everyone. A reliably amazing journey.Thanks for an amazing experience!

What an amazing trip! Our group of 7 friends did a trek that we planned with Prem that included Gokyo-Ri, Cho La Pass and Island Peak. It was a wonderful route with good acclimatisation and off the beaten track. Prem was a fantastic guide - very knowledgeable, kept us safe, was flexible and handled any issues that came up along the way and was just fun to have around! The scenery was breathtaking and it was such a great feeling of achievement to have done what we did. Would highly recommend Mountain Hawk Trekking.

Had an awesome time with Prem and his team. Loved the banter, guidance on food, selection of accomodation to meet our needs. We did a custom route which really met our needs and made our trip extra special. Before the trip Prem also allowed some custom changes to allow us to visit more remote, and less tourist oriented places. Fantastic trip!!! Prem was more another member of our group rather than a tour guide.

We completed the Everest Base Camp and Cho La pass trek in December 2008 with Prem and we had an incredible time. When you have no previous serious trekking experience and no experience in Nepal, travelling with the right guide is the single most important element of your trip and we have to say we felt very lucky. Prem was friendly and flexible, yet always gave us the space we needed. He is experienced and extremely knowledgeable about trekking, mountain and Nepali culture. With him we felt safe – we believe his advice contributed a great deal in us not getting altitude sickness – and well taken care of. He for example managed to get us the best rooms in the lodges we stayed in whenever he could – so all we had to do was to focus on enjoying our trip. With his knowledge of less traveled trekking regions, including in India, as well as his experience of the most popular technical trekking peaks in Nepal, we felt that there is a lot more to discover and we will contact him for sure for our next trekking adventures.
