    This was my second time trekking with Avi. He is very knowledgeable on the trail and also in handling emergencies. Saved my son's life when he got super low numbers on the oxymeter by sitting next to him all night, administering proper first aid, and continously monitoring him until my son was rescued the next morning. Thank you. You are the best, Avi.

    Avi was the Best Guide I’ve ever had on a big hiking trip. I have recommended him to several clients and I’d say he’s the best guide in Nepal for how he operates across the board.
