B.C. Bhatt from Iron Horse Adventures has acted as our guide and interpreter on a beautiful tour hrough Northen India targeting mount Shivling and the Bhagirathi Group after visiting Resource of Ganges, Gaumukh. The qualities as mountain guide are quite exceptional- the guide has the rare sensitivity to adjust the tour to the liking an prowess of his clients. It's obvious that the training in the Indian Himalayas Mountaineering school has contributed a lot to his skills. However we have been even more impressed by human qualities of guide and very good knowledge about history of Himalayas. He personally checked every step of our route and safety is written virtually on his forehead. He was more than a guide he became our friend. We can state this looking back on much tour Organization and many guides we had through out our extensive traveling in Asia. We had many good guides but did not find one that was also articulate and friendly like him. You can by him and his organization all means entrust your security and the expectations of your trip to B.C.Bhatt . I'm positive that you will come back a life time experience-----------------Carman and Cluas Andreas Span from Germany(Senior Manager of Marketing IBM)
