Karma cooked excellent food throughout, even when the supplies i.e. vegetable, ran low, as we were unable to buy supplies in Padum ( due to circumtances at Kargil ). He structured the trek, to avoid very long, difficult days, assisted with river crossing and was very helpful. Vilati is an excellent and efficient pony man. He treated the animals well when unwell and particularly impressed with getting over Shingo La so early in season (May). Also to Prem for assisting up until this stage over pass and for cleaning up campsite it was very good to see this attitude to the environment 5 sacks of other begs as rubbish at Zanskar Sumdo. Tsering did an excellent job thanks also for assistance with translating throughout . From : Anthony Chenhall and Luise King, Australia.

Des paysages magnifiques malgré l’enclume dans la tête après le passage du col. Prem et Lobsang nous ont permis de le passer malgré la grosse épaisseur de neige (on en avait jusqu’au nombril à certains endroits…). Sans leur connaissance du milieu et leur expérience, nous n’aurions jamais trouvé l’itinéraire que nous voulions faire sel. Ils nous ont permis aussi des rencontres plus qu’agréables avec les habitants. Certainement l’un de mes meilleurs souvenirs de l’Inde. Namasté.

His cooking is very tasty and filling. Norbu was a great helper always working very hard and doing his best to please everyone. He was also very friendly and bouncy. Top marks to a great helper he should go far. I dont really know anything about horses but the horseman seemed to do their jobs well, although their singing needs improvement". Christop Britain 6 August 1997   Darcha Padum Trek Zanskar Himalayas    "I really do recommend the Darcha Padum Trek provided by Potala Travels. We undertook this trek in August 97 ( 3 person ). In fact it is an extremly beautiful 7-9 days trek, depending on personal condition. I also strongly recommend Sonam Dawa as a Guide, who not only knows to take care about the tourist, but also to deal with the horseman. So without any doubt I recommend to go on a " trip " with Potala Adventurers, certainly also to any other location in Ladakh and Zanskar"   Dacha - Lamayuru Zanskar Traverse "Since tomorrow we will finish our trek from Darcha to Lamayuru. We like to say a few things about it. We travelled together with Shiva as our horseman (The best in Manali) Ram Kumar (cook) and K.T. whose name he has to write in ful himself (Kunchok Tsering ) who was our guide. For the entire three weeks we felt save and comfortable, we enjoyed their perfact service and we didnt have to care about anything. Their equipment surpasses our imagination, the food was always carefully prepared and plentiful. Because we were so happy with he trek we thought we should give this recommendation book to K.T.with hope that you also enjoy your time with his team.   Da wir morgen beenden unsere Wanderung von Darcha zu Lamayuru. Wir möchten noch ein paar Dinge über sie. Wir reisten zusammen mit Shiva als unsere Reiter (am besten in Manali) Ram Kumar (Koch) und KT deren Namen er zu schreiben, in der sich vollständig (Kunchok Tsering), der war unser Führer. Für den gesamten drei Wochen Wir waren der Meinung, speichern und komfortabel, wir genossen die idealen Service und wir didnt haben, sich über alles. Ihre Ausrüstung übersteigt unsere Vorstellungskraft, das Essen war immer gut vorbereitet und reichlich. Da waren wir so glücklich er mit Trek wir dachten, wir sollten diese Empfehlung Buch KTwith zu hoffen, dass Sie auch Ihre Zeit mit seinem Team Hannah Scrant, Munich Germany & Roland Durnest, Zurich, Switzerland

They were able to assist me in providing information to questions I have and also helped me cross steep glaciers along the way. This is crucial for me, having little experience walking in ice. I also wish to compliment them on the elaborated food dished out everyday and appreciate the extra blankets when weather turns cold. I also deeply appreciate the company for helping me make pre and post trip accommodation and onward travel arrangements without being asked and providing invaluable advice. David L. – SINGAPORE – 11 June 2011 I went on the Hamta pass trek in early June.  I had not read much about the trek before I left, so I didn’t know what I had coming. I was positively surprised with the good knowledge the Guide had about the areas we were passing through.  He seems to have real passion for mountains and trekking, which was really encouraging for me. The cook did his best to provide us with the nice dishes as far as it could be done.  All the staff on the trek acted professionally in every situation, even when my trek partner was forced to make decision to return with the porters. The cook and the Guide did their best to serve me the food I needed on the last two days of the trek, although we didn’t carry any cooking equipment with us. The tent and sleeping bags we were given were also just right for the wind and weather conditions. Altogether an amazing experience I won’t forget. Charlotte L. – NORWAY, 13 June 2011   Kinnaur  Spiti Tour Tour name:  Kinnaur Spiti Tour  ( 18 May – 02 June ) 15 nights 16 days. “Our tour to Kinnaur Spiti was a grand success.
