everest 2012Dear Ram,
we have been trekking for almost 3 weeks from Pokhara to Jomsom/Muktinah and around Jomsom. We can only say very good things about the quality of your services.
trekking permits were obtained in a day and the day after our arrival in Pokhara we were on the trek. Guide and porters were very competent and helpful ,specially in the difficult conditions of the monsoon season.We will certainly come back and call you again. Good luck for your business,you know what quality of service means.
Best regards.

rebekahI was very nervous about hiking to Everest Base Camp at the beginning of monsoon season. However, Ram and his crew were well-versed in the hike, and I felt very comfortable with his expertise. It was a successful hike, and one of the most memorable times of my life.

CleoWe trekked with Ram in April of 2012. It was fantastic, everything was taken care of. Ram was organized, our packers were positive and the trip was full of gorgeous sights, great conversation, local singing and dancing, and an excellent sense of fulfillment! I would recommend this hike to anyone that loves the outdoors! I know that I will go again!

abby-and-MegHey Ram!

I cannot explain how great it was to trek to the ABC with Ram. I heard about Essence through mutual friends so I felt that the company was reliable – and it proved itself to be. As a young female trekking in a new country I was worried about my safety and feeling comfortable. Ram exceeded my expectations. He was so respectful of me and my friend and was so fun to be around. He was very aware of when we needed to take a rest but was also a great motivator for times we needed to push on. Ram was constantly checking in with guest houses to make sure we had places to sleep. We both felt very taken care of. I highly recommend Essence. And if you trek with Ram – bring cards. He loves solitare :)
