Who We Are
In fact, climbers are modern explorers with unique goals and aspirations. We believe that current day adventure or exploration needs to move beyond the objectives and fame linked with it, whether it any of the expeditions and even eccentric country vacation. We concentrate more on the overall quality of these journeys because of this. We consider every trip as a singular exploration, whether participants are on an unconventional & motorbike tour, a trekking or climbing expedition. Every team member is an adventurer in their own right, and they all joined us to take on a challenge and gain knowledge via experience.
Pahadi Bakra is dedicated to providing top-notch, eco-friendly, self-sufficient, and secure adventures and tours all across the nation. Our policies prioritise moral and culturally sensitive travel. Our international guides provide service on our travels to Spain, France, and Argentina from their native countries. These trip leaders have all received certification from either IFMGA/UIAGM, UIAA, or their respective national organisations. Our skilled staff members meticulously hand-craft each of our adventures or vacations. This implies that we deliver exceptional goals and a memorable journey that are in a class of their own. We give you a tonne of information before leaving on any trip, and our team members are always available to answer any questions since we know that helping participants reach their own goals begins well before the expedition or trip. We require participants to be physically and mentally prepared in advance, even though the complexity and degree of our adventures varies. We believe in the concept of “team effort” and assume that every climber, adventurer, and explorer shares our enthusiasm for the mountains, cultures, and environmental issues. Local staff members are used on all of our adventures as porters, guides, etc. Even though we send a guide on every excursion, local guides are a great resource for learning about the geography and cultures of the places we travel.
We look forward to work with you.
