Guide Baikuntha Nepal, together with assistant giude Soman, took myself, my girlfriend, and 12 other people up to base camp in October of 2019. His professionalism was surpassed only be his amazing personality. He has over 10 years experience as a trekking guide and is truly able to read situations in a manner that keeps everybody safe and on track toward achieving their goals. Over two weeks of interesting conversation, I truly feel I left Nepal with a good friend as well as an amazing mountain experience.
In all seriousness, he is also the nicest person you will ever meet. My group got stuck in Lukla for several nights waiting for the weather to lift so planes could land and take off. Nimesh helped to arrange lodging for additional days, helped to get us on earlier flights more likely to get out before the afternoon storms rolled in, and even lent me some money after I ran out and electricity in town crashed preventing ATMs from functioning. There is no way my girlfriend and I could have succeed in making it to base camp and back without Baikuntha. I'm happy he was there to take us, and I happy to call him a friend of mine.
