Ama Dablam Expedition

This expedition was one of the most thrilling adventures of my life. I joined the Ama Dablam climb with Actual Adventure after reading about their success rates and positive feedback. Mr. Sushil Tiwari handled the entire booking and planning process. His professionalism and prompt replies made me feel comfortable choosing this agency. Upon arrival in Kathmandu, I was picked up at the airport, and the team made me feel very welcome. The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly Lakpa Sherpa—our climbing leader. He is a humble, strong, and experienced guide who leads by example. The mountain itself is majestic and challenging, and having someone like Lakpa made the ascent less intimidating. The fixed ropes were well maintained, the safety briefings were clear, and the team dynamics were great. At Camp 2, we had warm soup even during snowstorms—testament to how well the team takes care of clients. I summited on a crystal-clear morning, with views I’ll never forget. Actual Adventure didn’t just get me to the top—they gave me a lifetime experience. I’d choose them again for any Himalayan climb.

I recently completed the Ama Dablam expedition with Actual Adventure and was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism and commitment of the team. Sushil Tiwari, the manager, ensured everything was in place before my arrival—permits, equipment checklists, local SIM card, and even emergency insurance support. From Lukla to base camp, everything went as planned. The climbing guide, Lakpa Sherpa, is incredibly experienced and genuinely passionate about mountaineering. He explained every detail during the rotations and gave excellent technical tips on fixed lines and anchor safety. I always felt like I was in capable hands. The food on the expedition exceeded expectations—dal bhat, pasta, soups, and even fresh vegetables were served regularly. Base Camp was comfortable, and we had a separate dining tent and toilet facilities. Communication between camps was smooth, and weather updates were accurate. We summited on a perfect morning, with breathtaking views all around. What made the experience special was the team spirit and care shown by Lakpa and the staff. It wasn’t just about reaching the top—it was about doing it the right way. Thank you Actual Adventure and Mr. Sushil for an unforgettable expedition.
