点评:Early in May-June 2025, I planned, confirmed with Red Panda, to trek Goachala after paying full fee and arrived in the beautiful Yuksom.
Mr.Panda shocked us by informing, the agreed upon Guide is not available for scheduled 1st day of trek and rescheduled the trek by 1 day.
Then, he increased our trek fee by further 4000 rupees per person (total 8000 for two person private group hike; after initially agreeing to a fee and accepting it in full) and got us to pay on the same day.
Even on the new start day, he didn't get us a proper guide. Arranged a local person to take us through half day and we had to catch-up with our excellent guide (Nehal Rai) half way up the mountains.
Very unprofessional, to accept initially and changing schedule, to increase fee at last minute, and send unqualified person disguised as guide for half day.
Wont recommend to any private group or solo trekkers.
翻译:2025年5月初至6月初,我计划并向Red Panda确认了Goachala徒步行程,并支付了全额费用,抵达了美丽的Yuksom。
然而,Red Panda先生却出人意料地告知我们,之前约定的向导无法在第一天带队,并将行程改期一天。
随后,他又将我们的徒步费用提高了每人4000卢比(两人私人团体徒步总共8000卢比;此前我们已经全额支付了费用),并要求我们当天支付。
即使在新的出发日,他也没有给我们安排合适的向导。他安排了一位当地人带我们走了半天,我们不得不爬到半山腰才追上我们优秀的向导(Nehal Rai)。
这种做法非常不专业,先是同意行程,然后又更改安排,最后时刻提高费用,还派一个不合格的人冒充向导带我们走了半天。
不推荐给任何私人团体或独自徒步旅行者。
