I walk with a cane and am 82 years old, so true trekking is pretty much out of my ability. i have heard I could hire porters to carry me- is that true and is it possible on your itin?

Indeed, it is possible to hire porters to assist by carrying you where necessary during the trek, at an additional cost. We would be very happy to help arrange this for you to ensure your experience is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
