Had way too many trekkers (27) in the group. By the time you add the porters it was nearly 70 in the group. It was too big. If I went again I would choose a company with smaller groups.I was 51 when I did the trek – had no problems.

One of them had to be carried for the last 2 days.

They went well – didn't have any issue with them. My porter made me a carved stick to bring home, but it got cracked in the luggage on the plane. I now have it mounted on my wall.
