You might want the customer to e-mail me. Give my e-mail as a contact
then it would be up to me to direct them to Mountain Experience.
Having used Mountain Experience since its conception I feel their service and camping equipment are of high standard and quality.
I'm able to answer your questions on Nepal trekking and trekking peaks.
Also if your trek costs are fair.
Mountain Experience was easy to communicate with via email or phone if necessary and they took care of all the details for the trip. They met us at the airport when we arrived, and they made sure we got to the airport on time for our return. We've now used Mountain Experience twice, and have been very happy with both experiences.
Our group of 3 trekkers had used Pemba in 2007 for Everest Base Camp trek and enjoyed him so much we requested him again for our 2009 Annapurna Trek.
Having a good guide is important for many reasons, and Pemba did an excellent job for us. In particular, I got a nasty head cold a few days into the trek and was miserable most of the time. Pemba took the initiative to make sure I was doing as well a possible, bringing me tea in my room, carrying my day pack and helping me pace myself for the difficult climb over the pass.
Pemba manages the porters, and they did a great job for us too. Not only in their capacity as porters, but also in helping out in general when necessary.
In the cities, Pemba helped us get the best shopping deals, showed us around town and helped us with our city adventures.
If you want a trekking adventure, contact Mountain Experience, tell them what you want and let them take care of the trip logistics so you can enjoy the trekking!

Mountain Experience.. Island Peak 2009
To Whom It May Concern.
In September 2009 I contacted Chhuldim of Mountain Experience with the intention of arranging and out of season climb of Island Peak Nepal (January 2010). I found Mountain Experience a top class organisation in every way. They were highly competitive on pricing. Chhuldim took care of the peak fees, various deposits, getting and changing connecting flights and providing specialist gear. The organization has a great network of contacts all through the Khumbu Valley including; high altitude climbing Sherpa staff, porters, and lodge owners. Without exception these contacts were friendly, efficient and reliable. In fact my interactions with the staff remain a highlight of my trip to Nepal.
The organization of the acclimatisation phase and the climb went like clockwork, except we could not control the weather. I was very impressed with the professionalism of this company and recommend it as a starting point for climbing and trekking trips to Nepal.
Yours sincerely,
