Did the Umling La batch in June. Our captain Tenzin rerouted us around a landslide near Hanle without any drama and we still made it for sunset. The oxygen check every evening sounded excessive until two people in our group actually needed it. Worth every rupee.
Solo female traveller, first group trip, and I was nervous about it. The WhatsApp group before departure made a huge difference — by day one I already knew who I was travelling with. Homestays in Spiti were basic but spotless.
Kedarkantha in late December, minus nine at the campsite, and the tents held up fine. Rented the jacket and gaiters from them instead of buying — saved me about eight thousand rupees for one trek.
Meghalaya in peak monsoon means you will get wet, and they say so upfront, which I appreciated. Only gripe: the Dawki boat ride felt rushed. Everything else was better than the price suggested.
Booked eleven days before departure and they still sorted the permits. Payment link, invoice, GST — all of it came through properly, which is not something I can say about the last operator I used.
Bali with the Gili add-on. The boat transfer was the only rough bit and they warned us about it twice. Ubud homestay had the best breakfast of the trip. Would book again for Vietnam.
Great Lakes trek, seven days, four passes. Hardest thing I have done. The trek leader adjusted the pace for the two slowest people without ever making it a thing, which I noticed.
Jaisalmer over New Year. Camp was comfortable and the music around the fire was not the touristy version. Docking a star because the Jodhpur leg felt like filler.
We read every one, including the critical ones — most of what we changed last season came out of these.
