Karma explained the monasteries with patience and made the route feel respectful, not rushed. I came away knowing something real about Tibetan Buddhism.

The Day 4 mountain road was magical. Karma read the weather perfectly and chose the right stop. Flexible and knowledgeable in equal measure.

A thoughtfully built experience. Nothing felt like a tourist trap. Karma has genuine relationships with the communities he visits.

Very solid guide. Good pacing, good humour, and the guesthouse location is perfect for exploring Gangtok on foot in the evenings.
