Not sure what Littl_swon is talking about but i had the opposite experience.

Well organised, run and communicated experience in the mountains. The guides (i met a few) were all patient professional, flexible and a lot of fun.

As far as using the other companies, remember they organise the experience and contract the actual guides (who are all independent) so ultimately you could end up with the same guide at each company.

I chose AC as their response to my quieries were quick and accomodating and after the experience i would be happy to continue my future trips with them
