My name is Bala, full name Balasundaram Bangaru, originally from
India. I am currently working as a research fellow at the
University College London. I am highly interested in
mountaineering. I have climbed few mountains in the past
including Aconcagua (Argentina), Kilimanjaro(Tanzania), Hyana
Potosi(Bolivia). I used the services of Pasang Dendi sherpa,
recommended by another friend of mine. I climbed Meera Peak in
Nepal during April 2007 and a also a hike to Namche bazaar on
the base camp trek route. I took 17 days for the entire trip.
Dendi received me at the airport and organised the whole trip. I
communicated with him through Email. I had instant replies from
him, so it was quite simple to organise the trip. For the Meera
peak climb he had organised another climbing guide and he
accompanied me all the way to the high camp. He is very
friendly, warm and caring. I am highly impressed by his
services. He has no commercial motivation and his passion for
the mountains was quite obvious. He was very energetic and
enthusiastic. I felt like I am climbing with another friend of
mine. I recommend his services for any of your mountaineering
needs in Nepal. For any additional information please contact me

Shannon, Dendi was great. HE HAS LED TRIPS IN ALL PARTS OF
NEPAL, AND IS A GREAT TOUR GUIDE OF culture and local history as
well as routes. His prices were very competitive. I would be
happy to be a reference for him.

RECOMMEND LETTER FROM CANADA
I would like to offer my most sincere reference for Pasang Dendi
Sherpa. During the fall of 2006 Dendi acted as a guide for my
girlfriend and I. Throughout our two week trek to Everest Base
Camp / Kalla Pattar, Dendi was able to provide cultural insights
and connections to the local people that I am certain we would
not have been able to achieve on our own. He is a very organized
guide and he managed some of the trip details in a manner that
did not distance us from the experience of traveling. The trail
to EBC is straight forward and non-technical. To this extent I
am not able to speak to Dendi’s technical abilities in the
mountains other than to say that I myself am an Association of
Canadian Mountain Guide certified Day Hiking Guide and I
appreciated his pace and sense of awareness on the trail. I am
certain that Dendi’s presence during our trek added value to the
experience. He is a friendly man with a decent handle on the
English language. If you are looking for a guide I would
recommend that you contact him, ask many questions, and see if
his services match what you are looking to experience in Nepal.
It certainly did for us. If you would like more information
please feel free to contact me at the
e-mail address below.
Cheers!

Letter of Recommendation from England
I have known Pasang Dendi for approximately 3 years and have
employed him on 2 separate trips to Nepal, the most recent, a
successful summit of Island Peak where his organizing and
attention to detail were first class. My first trip, in October
2003, I spent a month with him trekking around the Annapurna
region, an amazing experience.His knowledge of his own country
is impressive and although when we first met, his English was
very patchy, he has worked extremely hard at improving. He is a
very compassionate and reliable person and very good company to
be with.For anyone wishing to trek or climb Nepal, Dendi is
someone I would put my trust in again and again and through my
visits to Nepal I have also gained a very good friend.

Letter of Recommendation from
Luxembourg.
My Husband and me,
We traveled to Nepal last autumn. We trusted and internet
recommendation and chose Sherpa Pasang Dendi trekking company
while still at home in Luxembourg. We were so pleasantly
surprised upon arrival in Kathmandu as Dendi Pasang had
succesfully organised everything starting from airport pickup,
city tour, friendship dinner, hotel arrangement, plane tickets
to Lukla etc. Out trekking guides fro the 2 week trekking tour
into Khumbu Everest region was Furwa Lama we could not have
wished better companions for that! Apart from ensuring smooth
functioning (incl. carefully chosen lodges and menus) of the
planned trekking, the guys really cared about our well being (in
all respect) during the trip. Being very much interested in the
non-apparent aspects of their culture and religion we greatly
appreciated that these young men were able to tell us so much
about their ways of living as well as the Himalayan flora and
fauna. In our opinion, for the paid price we got an excellent
service plus some real friends in Nepal. We sincerely wish them
best of luck in their trekking business! We can recommend his
service to anyone. For more detailed information we can be

Letter of Recommendation from England
Reference: Pasang Dendi Sherpa
To Whom It May Concern
I was fortunate enough to have Dendi recommended to me by my
brother. As a result I contacted him to organize a trek around
Annapurna, including the ascent and base camp organization of
Chulu East en route. On arrival in Kathmandu, Dendi greeted us
at the airport, it was soon clear to what great efforts he had
made on our behalf to create a smooth running trip. Dendi has a
great deal of honor and is true to his word. Our only contact
beforehand had been via e-mail. Everything he said he would do
was done such as obtaining visas and permits. This made the
start of our trip free of problems. The Sherpas have a worldwide
reputation as being honest, friendly and hardworking. Dendi is
all of these and an absolute credit to his people. His knowledge
of Nepal d its culture enriched the trip greatly for us, as well
as his open manner and sense of humor. Dendi worked hard for us
and can think of no other who could have done better. He was
vigilant of the food we ate and our well being wherever we
stayed. You can trust him completely and will count his as a
good friend at the end of it. If you should wish further details
of Dendi about any of the above issues please contact me at.

Ryan (South Africa) Namaste!
Pasang Dendi Sherpa is a really excellent and friendly guide. He
has provided treks and peak climbs to many foreign tourists and
has a great amount of useful contacts when it comes to
organising lodges, equipment or transport arrangements. He has
been through all the required government training as well as
working previously for a company. He took me up EBC and Kala
Pattar on a 2-week trek (Jan 2004) and I found his service most
professional and I also consider him now a friend. He speaks
four languages (Nepali, Tibetan, Sherpa and English), which is a
great help in the mountains and in the city. He knows many lodge
owners, and on the trek he always made sure that I got the best
room and treatment. He is personally interested in the customer,
and thus the treatment is far better than that through a
company. He has porter contact as well, if so required, and his
overall trek charges “are extremely competitive" don’t waste
your money on a company. He has previously taken large groups on
treks (which naturally have a lower per person cost), as well as
groups of 2 and 3, and of course my self, a lone trekker. I
thoroughly enjoyed the trek and his company. His stories of
Himalayan ascents as well as his good knowledge of the mountains
were really entertaining. His is truly a great trekking asset!
