    · January 10th, 2024
    The trekking was beautiful, but the preparation and information was quite poor. We did not get a packing list and we did nog get any information about the accommodation or the weather (which was -10 on the mountain). Also the guides were not exactly what we thought it would be. They were more focused on theirselves than on giving us the best experience. We didn’t go to the best guesthouses and on the last 2 days they were very focused on getting being in time for their own bus instead of giving us an experience.
