Why travel with us?
Book and Travel with Confidence
During the uncertain times caused by the Coronavirus pandemic, we’ve been doing all we can to give you complete peace of mind so you can book that much-needed big adventure with absolute confidence. Please take a look at our Book and Travel with Confidence policies and be assured that we have your safety and best interests at the forefront of all we do.
No Surcharge Guarantee
We have a No Surcharge Guarantee on all Land Only and Flight Inclusive holidays. This means that there will be no change to the price of your holiday once we have confirmed your booking, regardless of fluctuations in exchange rates or fuel prices.
Loyalty discounts
If you have previously travelled with Mountain Kingdoms, as a past client you are eligible for a discount of £75 per person on our group holidays, Private Departures, or Tailor Made holidays. This discount offer excludes any holidays booked in Europe, Morocco and the Middle East.
Award winning Responsible Tourism
We feel strongly that all our holidays should benefit local communities, protect the environment by minimising pollution and respect local traditions, religion and heritage. We support a number of charities and projects and have previously been awarded the AITO award for Responsible Tourism Operator of the Year. For the latest information on the projects we support and the work we are doing please see our Responsible Tourism pages, and read our Climate Emergency policy statement.
Value for money prices with an emphasis on quality
We are not in the business of cutting our itineraries and services to the bone to offer eye-catching cheap prices. Our well thought out trips do, however, offer fantastic value for money. We use some of the best airlines, and typically 3 or 4 star hotels in main cities. We include the majority of meals and use private transport for road travel. We use excellent equipment and appoint well trained staff and leaders. Take a look at our client reviews for first-hand feedback.
Financial security
The air inclusive holidays we arrange are ATOL protected (ATOL number 2973) providing either the person who pays for the booking is present in the UK when the booking is made or the first leg of any flight or flights we arrange for you commences in the UK. Visit here if you would like to know more. Our Land Only holidays are covered by a bond secured with ABTOT.
Mountain Kingdoms is a member of the Association of Independent Tour Operators - AITO is the Association for independent and specialist holiday companies. Member companies, usually owner-managed, strive to create overseas holidays with high levels of professionalism and a shared concern for quality and personal service. The Association encourages the highest standards in all aspects of tour operating, please see AITO's Quality Charter for more details.
Small group travel
For the vast majority of our holidays, we have a maximum group size of only 12, plus leader. This provides more contact with your leader, readier access to off-the-beaten-path areas, greater interaction with local communities and a reduced environmental impact. A small number of our treks have a maximum number lower than 12.
Holidays to suit you
We have a flexible approach to helping you to plan your holiday - flights, hotel upgrades, extensions and dates of travel can all be adjusted, on any holiday in this brochure. For an even more personalised holiday, take a look at our Tailor Made service available for solo travellers, couples or groups. For full details please see our Tailor Made pages.
Knowledgeable and personal service
When you ring Mountain Kingdoms you speak to a well travelled individual. We don't have a 'sales force' as such, instead you will be looked after by one of our team who has a direct knowledge of the region you are interested in. This ensures that we can speak from experience, offering first hand knowledge and personal insight whether you want to know what's on the breakfast menu, the best spot to take your photos or how many thermal vests to pack!
