Sarah Grut, New Zealand

Dear Shikher, Anil and all your team I wanted to sincerely thank you for your amazing support and understanding whilst I organized the Habitat Team, especially during the time I had to fly to the U.K. for my Fathers illness and funeral. Your professionalism and helpfulness were outstanding, and it was a pleasure to work with you on this project. To date I have had a few phone calls from Team Members to say how amazing their Tours were, as well as the Sherpas/Guides. Carol deHaas also mentioned how great you were when she broke her ankle and how you helped her with the hospital visit. I know that all the Team Members will have had an amazing experience and that will come down to the way your run your business and the high work ethic in which you strive for. I only wish that all the Tour Operators I deal with were as fantastic as Natraj Trekking. Read more
