Our leaders are the world’s best – their local knowledge, humour and experience will be a highlight of your trip a restaurant, translate for you in the market and talk with you about the language, history, culture and politics of the country. They’re great fun, know their way around and will take care of all the details for you. Once you have travelled with our local leaders, you’ll understand that there’s no better way. QUAlITY AND VAlUE Quality is the hallmark of a Peregrine holiday – we seek out excellent accommodation, which is often family-run, and travel in comfortable transport. Our balance of adventure and comfort is just right, and because we operate our own holidays, you know you’re getting good value.

Having local offices and ground staff means our established emergency procedures are fast and effective. You’ll be in good hands.

LEADER PROFILE

DORJEE SHERPA Dorjee is our longest serving leader, having worked with Peregrine since 1979. He has participated on many climbing expeditions in Nepal and he has specialised knowledge of Nepal’s more remote trekking routes, in particular Number, Rolwaling and the remote areas of the Annapurnas. Dorjee is a highly regarded leader who has also trekked in Tibet, Bhutan and India. When not on trek Dorjee returns home to run the Sherpa Village Guest House in the Everest area, with his wife Yongmi. The guest house is our first stop on all treks accessing the Everest area from Lukla airstrip, with Yongmi managing it full-time during the trekking season. ‘Dorjee’s style of leading made us all feel so special – a wonderful trip with a leader to match, thank you Peregrine’ SH, Australia - 2005 the spirit of adventure // 07
