Doing Good By Travelling with Lama Walks
Every trek with LaMa Walks goes beyond the trail—it’s a journey of giving back.
Back in February I traveled to Nepal for business and had roughly 10 days after my contracts ended to see and experience a bit of Nepal beyond what I saw during my work. As a professional guide with nearly 20 years of experience in North America I was reluctant to entertain the thought of hiring a guide service at first. But in hindsight I am so glad that I did!LaMa Walks was recommended to me by a colleague of mine. Below are a few of my highlights and observations while working with this absolute top tier guide service.Professional and Timely correspondence: From the very beginning everyone I communicated with about any and all questions that I had was friendly, professional and informative. Having only 10-days to explore I wasn’t sure what my options really were and LaMa was able to help me choose the best experience possible with the time that I had.Itemized itinerary: Soon after my initial inquiry I was provided with a few options that could meet my needs. Each option was fully itemized with cost and exactly what was included. Nothing was left to my imagination and I knew exactly what I would be getting. Plus, once I made a decision, my trek provided all that was listed with absolutely no hiccups.Professional guides: I was also very impressed with the professionalism of the entire LaMa Walks team. My guide for a 9-day trek in the LangTang N.P was Manish (pictured below). From the very start of my time with Manish it was clear to me that he was honest, knowledgeable & professional. What I appreciated most was his in indepth knowledge of the LangTang region. This is where I really found the most value in hiring a guide. Without Manish I would not have learned or experienced as much as I was able to along the way. Having him with me was definitely a reason that this trek became a trip of a lifetime and I’m truly grateful.Trekking with Purpose: I’ll admit that initially I was really sure what this meant. However, it did not take a long time for me to understand. During my Trek in LangTang each teahouse we stayed in felt more like a home stay than a guesthouse. This was a welcome departure from some of the larger more commercial options that existed along the way. This is the most significant reason why I’m so glad I invested in this guide company. I truly felt that I had the opportunity to connect with a community that if left to my own devices I would not have had the chance to. I often felt more like family than a guest.Feeling more like family than a guest seems to have been a theme throughout my entire experience with LaMa walks from start to finish. An investment in LaMa Walks is an investment in yourself. Do it. You will not be sorry.
Had recently went on an adventure to Lubuche to do my first peak with LaMa Walks. A very professional team, from the start to end, even before the start. They were always on prompt to all your needs. From the curation of the itinerary to the time we were back, everyone moment was taken care off, with smile on the faces of all the staffs, porters, Sherpa's. Surely planning my another climb with you soon !
I just returned from an unforgettable trek with "Lama Walks". Their team is highly experienced and super friendly, with a deep connection to the local community. Our guide was a local favorite, ensuring we felt at home. The lodges were cozy, and help was always available. Plus, our guide's boundless energy kept us motivated even on the toughest trails.And the cherry on top? His non-stop humor kept us laughing all the way!With Lama Works, you're guaranteed an adventure that's as fun as it is unforgettable!
Lobuche expedition end to end from Kathmandu - one of the most difficult expeditions for mountaineering beginners like me was a such a great delight managed by Lama walks. Kudos to the team Lama walks - Rajesh Lama, Rachana Lama, Ashok Lama and the entire support staff for managing the expedition in such way that I and my fellow expedition members did not feel we were doing it for the first time.The best part of the expedition was the choice of the Route, selection of the properties for the stay, awesome and delightful food, appropriate Acclimatization and above all the personalized touch and motivation which no other trekking professional would have done. It was like a customized personal expedition with friends made for life time and every minute detail taken care of from Kathmandu to Kathmandu. Thanks Lama walks. You won all our hearts so many times need less to say.
Thank you Lamawalks for the best experience for Tilicho Lake trek. Even it was on short notice Lama made everything possible. My guide Manish was very friendly and professional and made me comfortable and provided me the best experience I could have from arranging the best hotels to delicious meals. He was always there to motivate in difficult trails and wouldn’t let me fall and catch me even I slip. He was very knowledgeable about the culture, places, trails, layering , first aid and even knows the names of all mountains. Shared his expertise not only with me but with other trekkers also and helped them also. He sings , dance to entertain the whole people around them. And about my Porter (Maila Dai) is an awesome guy and always smiles and made me happy always. I’m very grateful for Lamawalks for this experience and can recommend to anyone if you’re looking for the best time in Nepal. They got it all 🥾🏔️😊
Our trip to Lobuche Peak, including 2 passes (Renjo La and Cho La) plus Everest Base Camp with LaMa Walks was nothing short of amazing.LaMa walks is a highly professional and ethical company. By trekking with LaMa Walks you not only receive an excellent itinerary to optimise acclimatisation but also learn about the mountains, the people and culture. Environmental sustainability is an important ethos of LaMa walks which is always highly appreciated. All staff were exemplary in the organising and running of this trip of a lifetime.
Lama and the LaMA Walks team are AMAZING. Thank you for a wonderful trip, keeping us safe, helping us have fun, and teaching us about your country! I loved having ladies on our trip, especially knowing that they uplift lady guides! We were mindful of the environment and the people we interacted with. The route and details were thoughtful planned. I can't recommend them enough.
Our student group had a great week with LaMa walks hiking in the foothills of the Himalaya and providing service to local organizations. LaMa's team are very nice people who care deeply for the environment that they lead adventures in. Would definitely recommend LaMa Walks for others looking to explore the mountains in Nepal.
Three words to describe LaMa Walks: professional, inclusive, and fun! Can't say enough good things about our experience trekking to Kanchenjunga Basecamp. What's different about LaMa Walks? 1) LaMa took time to recommend us the best trek for our group (we wanted something remote and challenging) and made a special trip to scout the route in advance to make sure he identified the best accommodations and could flag safety concerns like downed bridges or landslides. 2)The company lives its values. They are doing (not just talking about) gender inclusion in the trekking community--we had not one, but two, awesome women guides! 3) Vibes! Not only was the team supremely professional, but we also had fun, from making up silly hiking songs, to learning new card games, to doing daily stretches that kept us limber. Knowing we were coffee lovers, LaMa even went out of his way to make us fresh coffee using his Nalgene french press. Every evening we sat together, debriefed the day to troubleshoot any challenges, and went over the next day’s plan. That was something unique I didn’t see other groups doing. HIGHLY recommend choosing LaMa Walks for your Nepal adventure.
We had a phenomenal experience trekking to Kangchenjunga base camp with LaMa Walks. LaMa's expertise was evident throughout the process, from helping us choose a trek to arranging all the logistics to sharing natural and cultural knowledge with us. He has also assembled an amazing team of both men and women, whose energy never dropped as they led our hikes, brought us meals and tea, taught us card games, and carried our bags. Very quickly into the trip we felt like we were trekking with friends rather then just hiring strangers, something not always the case with other groups we saw. We also were impressed with LaMa's support for local communities, which have been hit in the last few years by COVID and flooding. Overall we were extremely satisfied and hope we'll be able to go trekking with LaMa Walks again!
LaMa provided the best trekking experience for my group that I could have imagined. He understood what kind of trek we wanted and provided us options that were ideal for us. LaMa made sure we were taken care of from our arrival in Kathmandu to the moment we left. Most importantly we felt confident in him and his team as they guided us for two weeks on the Kanchenjunga base camp circuit at high elevation. I was so impressed that he had two female guides and our mostly female group and queer was shown the same respect as the guys. LaMa was also environmentally conscious and made sure we had a low impact on the small, remote communities that were hosting us.I can’t thank LaMa and his team enough for a trip of a lifetime.
