the whole program was very well managed with the operator reaching out quite a few days earlier to my arrival asking for a meeting. the representative met us a day before the trip and explained in detail the itinerary as also handed over the tickets. on the day of the trip we were meet promptly on time by all the representatives at various points. the guide Keke (if i remember the name right) was very good and did not hurry us, especially as i was under the weather and explained everything in detail. overall a very satisfying journey and worth the cost one pays for the same
