Kanchenjunga Trek Reviews

I have just completed a 26-day Kanchenjunga trek in the eastern part of Nepal, with Gyan Katuwal, known to us as GB Katuwal, as our Guide/Sirdar. I was a member of a 6-person group conducting engineering, health, and education work for the Kanchenjunga School Project. Organization for our group was complex. We carried extra supplies for the project work and spent several days working along the route. GB speaks English assisted with the project work provided language translation during our workdays and ensured that we were well supported in each village.

GB had a strong sense of responsibility towards our group and supported each person individually. I experienced his support during a difficult climb of Deorali Danda early in the trek. His manner is professional and he is respectful of his clients, always reliable, and quietly good company. He is honest and forthright, essential qualities in a guide/sirdar. In turn, GB is respected by the porters, kitchen staff, and assistant guides. He managed the team very well to accommodate our needs. I happily recommend GB Katuwal as a Guide/Sirdar. I can answer, questions and confirm this reference by return email.
