My first trek experience with these guys was when a common friend dragged me out of my concrete jungle of comfort. It was pouring and every bone in my body told me this was a bad idea just getting out. We reached our start point and there, Sam and Sauraj stood with the biggest smiles and got the entire crowd pepped up to trek through rains in no more than 15 minutes of briefing. What struck me most about these guys was that in those 15 minutes, they covered every detail concerning the trek - safety, gear, food etc. Suffice to say, I thoroughly enjoyed 'roughing it out'. This was about 10 years ago. On every adventure since then they have never disappointed in experience satisfaction. My latest trip with them was to Mt. Kilimanjaro. I had recently recovered from an injury and these guys peppered me with fitness routines to be prepped in time for the expedition. Any question thrown at them was easily answered. From gear to clothes to snack packs and all other pre-trek tantrums you might have, the patiently help you out. All to make sure that the experience is indeed fabulous! I've never thought of going on outdoor adventures with anyone else and blindly suggest anyone who wants to head to the mountains to sign up for an Adventure beyond awesome!
Dear waysofsalad,
I love the pseudo-name . Wanted to first and foremost apologize for the delay in responding to this message. Thank you ever so much for trusting us and being our support all these years. Without loyal friends like you, we would have never been a position to survive all these years. I'm so very glad we have had the chance to share this experience with you and for me personally, it has been truly rewarding. I know very few people who can claim to have a friend ship survive for so long...
Look forward to many more adventures.
Cheers
I call these guys a family because that's literally what they make you feel like and become when you go on any trip with them.
I have been on the Everest Base Camp Trek with them in 2015 and recently did the trek to summit Kilimanjaro in Jan- Feb 2018. The Everest Base Camp Trek was my first one with them and after that I knew I was never going to go with any other Trekking company ever! The kind of details they go into with you pre and during trips is amazing. From suggesting workout routines to help you get fit for your treks to or gear, equipment to any other do's and dont's are exhaustively covered by these guys. This helps prepare for a trek, especially the hard ones methodically. Mind you a lot of outdoor activity companies in India don't even bother giving you critical information.
Not to mention they have the greatest team ever led by two Everest Summiteers so you know those guys know what to do in the mountains!
Can't wait to do my next trip with these guys!
Dear Ipsa,
I know its taken a while to respond to your review, so sincere apologies. Thank you so very much for the lovely words of appreciation. We definitely consider you as part of our Adventure Pulse family and wouldn't have it any other way. I'm so happy we could do both these treks and they seemed to take place at just the right moment in time. We eagerly look forward to being able to do Elbrus all together and hope it happens in 2021/2022/
Look forward to the next big adventure.
Best Wishes
I began trekking with Adventure Pulse 9 years ago as an amateur on a couple of monsoon treks and have never, ever felt the need to go to any other group. I was hit by AMS symptoms on both my high altitude treks- from Gorakshep to Base Camp during EBC and on the climb to Lava Tower on Mt. Kilimanjaro. I'm a 110% certain I wouldn't have made it without Samir egging me on both the times. The best part is, I thought I was the one getting all the personal attention, but then so did every other person in the group! That is the beauty of how the team at Adventure Pulse looks after you and how committed they are to your health, comfort and success.
Dear Poorva,
Thank you so very much for the fantastic review. First and foremost, my sincere apologies for the delay in responding to your review. I'm so glad we've had the pleasure of trekking with you and it goes without saying, we consider you an extension of our Adventure Pulse family. I'm constantly in awe of your strength and fitness, which always leaves me speechless on every trek. Can't wait for the next big adventure with you guys,
I have gone for three high altitude treks with Adventure Pulse. They are fantastic. I have been for their Everest base camp expedition, Summited a mountain called Stok Kangri (6152 mtrs) and climbed the highest mountain in Africa. The team's attention to detail and knowledge of the mountains is spectacular. They are single handedly responsible for making me fall in love with trekking.
I was part of an expedition to Kilimanjaro where the success rate is normally 50%. Out of 18 members 17 summited! Just this statistic says wonders for the team at Adventure Pulse.
Lastly they take care of you and make sure you are feeling confident before and during each trek. To the extent that I finished all there climbs without any altitude sickness or medicine.
If you are a first time trekker or a seasoned trekker, Adventure Pulse are the team you should be with!
Dear Ashdin,
Thank you for the resounding endorsement. We really appreciate you selecting Adventure-Pulse as your preferred Adventure partner and will constantly aspire to lead you to greater heights, literally ofcourse. Your faith in our abilities is a tremendous sense of motivation and encouragement to keep getting better. We really look forward to you joining us on many more adventures.
Warm Regards,
Even though we did our EBC with Adventure Pulse back in May 2016, we still have extremely fond memories of the trip and have extremely high regards for the Adventure Pulse Team, led by Sauraj and Samir.
The Adventure Pulse team are very professional and do a stupendous job of ensuring first time trekkers and seasoned trekkers alike are made to feel comfortable and are taken care of through the trek. Their infectious energy and passion for the mountains gets easily passed on to the climbing team.
The team of sherpas they picked for our climb were also fantastic, cheerful fellows who went out of their way to not only take care of us at the tea houses and along the entire trek but also lift our spirits whenever the going got tough on the trek.
The logistics, stay, food and the entire trek was top notch and faultless. The Everest Base Camp trek is a dream trek for most climbers and a badly organised trek would only spell disaster hence I'd recommend Adventure Pulse to ensure everything about this bucket list event is checked off. For the kind of prices they quote, the service, special attention, and the care that is paid is extremely worth it.
When a company is run by two very passionate mountaineers who have made 'Scaling Everest' their ultimate dream and are willing to take as many people as possible to Base Camp to partake in that dream and see the magnificence of the Himalayas; you know that this isn't a company that's around just to guide a few people and make money.
