Unexperienced guide, assigned only 2 days before the beginning of the trip. We changed the trip to a much simpler and less demanding hike when we found out the weather wasn't good, but when we asked if we could get partial refund, we were met with a deafening silence...

Mikel was perfect for me. It was the perfect guide. It was there to help me, to explain to me everything to show me the rute of the track, to give me advices about what i can improve or at what i’m good at. I would really love to have him again and climb another pick together. It was amazing. The all journey was so amazing that i started to cry of happiness and beautiful. The food from the huts were so so good and i’m a vegetarian ( eating cheese, love french cheese, eggs, milk) Thank you so much for this amazing journey, thank you for going out of the comfort zone ( i love when i’ m out of my comfort zone ).
