It was a great experience, I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it, but I did it because I got a lot of support from the team. They were very supportive and helpful, I will definitely go on another trip with The Sports Guru!

Traveling - it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller. ABC trek lived to the fullest tnx to @thesportsguru and the best team leader @jeanchemaly who made this dream adventure come true, with great organization to the smallest detail and amazing passion, guidance and motivation. It was a mind blowing unforgettable experience. I will come back, HUNGRY FOR MORE!!

Best trip ever! From the very first moment, being with the sports guru felt like being with family. The experience went above and beyond my expectations—truly unforgettable. Jean, our incredible team leader, made us feel like friends rather than clients. His warmth and energy made all the difference. Forever grateful for this experience and can’t wait for more adventures with the sports guru!  What made the trip so special is that we felt as a family in the group, we shared so many memories together, and ultimately made friends for life.

I had an incredible experience trekking to Annapurna Base Camp with The SportsGuru - truly a 10/10 adventure from start to finish. The organization was flawless: every detail was thought through, the planning was seamless, and the checklist they provided made preparation so easy and stress-free. Our team lead, Jean, was exceptional - proactive, motivating, and genuinely caring. He went out of his way at every step to support us, encourage us, and make sure everyone felt confident and comfortable throughout the trek. The local guides were equally wonderful: friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help. The scenery was breathtaking, the journey smooth, and the overall experience unforgettable. I highly recommend this trip - you don’t need to be super fit to do it; you just need the right mindset and a sense of adventure. Would do it all over again! What made the trip so special is that we felt as a family in the group, we shared so many memories together, and ultimately made friends for life.

A great unforgettable experience. Highly recommended it's life changing! The team is great helpful and caring! We started as strangers and ended as one big family through it all shout out to Jean and his great team! ❤️

Amazing and challenging trek. It is really an unforgettable journey where you will be reminded of the beauty and resilience that exists within and around us. An indelible mark was left on my soul that will surely stay forever.

I went to ABC trek as a solo female traveler, not knowing the organizing group very well, and of course not knowing anyone on the trip. Soon enough I felt surrounded by my close friends and the team leader was like an older brother to me. TSG had this trip very well organized, taking care of every small detail - which made all the difference in the trip. Super professional, knowledgeable, and caring! I am already very excited about Everest Base Camp and planning my next trip with them for this year inshallah!

Definitely a 5-stars trip. Jean is very professional, everything was perfectly planned. The orientation sessions and the tips before the trip were on point. From the moment we stepped in Nepal we hadn't to worry about one single thing. The visit to Kathmandu and Pokhara were very interesting and boosting before heading to the mountains. The adventure on the trek was hilarious. We had 3 Nepalese guides along with Jean. They were very kind and insightful. The vibes we've created, the bond and moments we lived were on another level. We went as strangers and came back as one family.

It was a great experience. The trip was very well organized, and the tips and information provided before the trip were very helpful. The group was amazing, which made the trip unforgettable.

For me, this trip wasn't only a hiking trip, it was a Life Changing one. I went from: "I can't do it and I will stop at the first village we reach" to going up to ABC and back down for the whole 5 days with Zero injury and High sense of achievement.
And this changed so many "I can't" in my life to "I can and I will".
A big shout out to Jean for his professionalism and continuous encouragement. He has a character that incites trust as soon as you meet him, a well-placed trust of course.
Thank you The Sports Guru and looking forward for my upcoming adventure with you!

I recently completed a trekking trip in Nepal with The Sports Guru, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. Jean and Stef’s professionalism, organization, and attention to detail were outstanding.

An unforgettable journey, the Annapurna trek was an amazing adventure.
The breathtaking scenery, the inner strength and the resilience we discovered within ourselves were all enhanced by the incredible group. We laughed, we cried, we danced, and we celebrated together. And finally, I would like to express my gratitude to our leader guide Jean for his positive attitude and support and everything he has done.
Namaste, Annapurna.

The ABC Hike is a perfect blend of The Sports Guru's unwavering excellence and the unmatched hospitality of Nepal—a match truly made and experienced in paradise. This remarkable combination is why I found myself returning for a second adventure in 2024. For more details, check out my review of ABC 2023.

From the moment you sign up for a hiking adventure with The Sports Guru, their professionalism shines through. Their knowledgeable guides meticulously plan each route, ensuring safety while maximizing the thrill of exploration. Every aspect of the journey, from equipment provision to trail guidance, is executed with precision and care, reflecting a commitment to excellence reminiscent of the delicate craftsmanship of Kintsugi.
Why Kintsugi? Easily because life's journeys often leave us fragmented, with pieces of ourselves scattered along the way. Yet, The Sports GURU approaches each excursion as an opportunity to collect these broken fragments and weave them together with threads of gold. Through their expert guidance and support, hikers find solace in the wilderness, rediscovering lost parts of themselves amidst nature's grandeur.
In a world where imperfections are often shunned, The Sports Guru embraces them with open arms, weaving them into the fabric of unforgettable hiking experiences.
So, if you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and adventure, let Jean Chemaly be your guide, and together, let's discover the golden trails that lead to our inner resilience and strength.
A big thank you from the bottom of the heart to The Sports GURU and Jean Chemaly for turning this experience into an unforgettable journey of self-healing.

Jean the team leader is very friendly and has a lot of passion for what he does. So you will immediately feel comfortable around him. The positive vibes in the group, with everyone sharing a story for the trip's purpose, were the highlight since day 1. We felt as if we knew each other since a long time. It was a challenging experience with a lot of memories and new friendships.

If I could, I would give 10 stars not only 5 for the experience I had with The Sports Guru at ABC!Not even sure from where to start. It is very well organized, everything was communicated ahead (no surprises). The people I met were incredibly amazing. It is a must trip for anyone who is genuinely looking to reconnect with themselves and nature. You can count on Jean for having the best experience ever. More is coming ..

ABC with TSG was an entire vibe! A life-changing experience. Imagine connecting with complete strangers online, meeting them in a foreign country, and then living with them for 10 days! It happened, it was real, raw, revealing, and I now have NINE new friends for life. The fact that you read this far means you are meant to do a trek with TSG. Sign up, go, trust me... I trusted TSG with my life. TSG deserves all the accolades. As a keen and demanding traveler, this is one of the best experiences of service excellence in all of my travels.#OnwardsAndUpwardsTSG

The trip to ABC with the sports Guru was a real life experience I will never forget. The technical details and planning were accurate and well done; this goes without saying. What made the trip so special is that we felt as a family in the group, we shared so many memories together, and ultimately made friends for life.

I just completed the ABC hiking adventure with the Sports Guru team. It was an incredible journey filled with beautiful moments. This experience challenged me to face the contradiction of finding my strength amidst my lowest point and discover my buried weaknesses. Meeting an incredible group of people to share this journey with was an unexpected fulfillment.. starting as complete strangers and ending as beautiful friendships. The sports Guru team, namely Jean and Stefanie were an outstanding support system providing everything we needed prior this journey and during it. Their passion to nature was directly affecting our spirits, lifting them up to keep on going and continuing till the end.  They were very supportive and helpful, I will definitely go on another trip with The Sports Guru!
