Read holiday reviews by Mountain Kingdoms travellers.
Spectacular scenery and architecture experienced under a cloudless sky. Reaching Taktsang Monastery was the highlight of my time in Bhutan. Excellent customer service from all concerned. Would have no hesitation in recommending Mountain Kingdoms.
The timing and itinerary of the holiday met our requirements and were main reasons for making the booking with MK. Could not fault any of the services provided by MK.
It was our first time in Southern India having been to Northern and Central many times. The itinerary was varied and took in the very best of what was on offer in Kerala. We have travelled with you many times before and have come to expect the best. We were not disappointed.
This was my first Mountain Kingdoms holiday and I was very impressed. The accommodation and activities were excellent and I very much enjoyed them. Our local guide Ganesh was superb and went to great lengths to ensure that we all enjoyed ourself.
This is our fourth trip with Mountain Kingdoms and all have been excellent.They are well planned and the local arrangements and guides have all been excellent quality.The accommodation and transport are all good.
Both Altezza and the safari company were very professional and gave us wonderful service. The guides and porters were a pleasure to be with and gave us good insight of life in Tanzania as well as detailed info about Kili. Thank you Steve and Mountain Kingdoms for organising the trip for us, it all ran very smoothly. A very well organised trip. We loved the small group, three of us plus one other, we got on well and moved at a similar pace.
The Tien Shan (the Mountains of Heaven or the Heavenly Mountains) are without doubt one of the most beautiful mountain ranges I have trekked within. At lower altitudes the mountain views are incredible; steep valley slopes are decorated with lush green grass and dense fir trees; glacier melt water flows at speed through picture-perfect valleys and evidence of working nomadic life is all around. At higher altitudes, and in particular on the South Inylchek Glacier, the snow-capped peaks of the Tien Shan Mountains are scenes I will never forget. The journey up the glacier is indeed 'a journey' and a chance to absorb, experience and understand the pure power and meaning of an impressive glacier life cycle. This adventure is one I will always cherish.
As my second trip to Nepal after Everest Base Camp, I must say it has been an incredibile adventure. This trek takes you to a very remote region, with very different landscapes (from tropical rainforests to dramatic Himalayan peaks), passing through low-populated valleys where people are friendly and genuine. Be prepared to long days with many ascents and descents. The rote to the Base Camps is blessed with incredibile autumn colours in Oct-Nov. Kangchenjunga is well hidden behind a court of incredibile rocky walls towering 7.000 mt (Chang Himal face is amazing and very close, when you walk on the edge of the glacier). Our guide Raj, the 2 sirdars and the cook were very attentive, and all the porters did a great and tough job. Finally, MK was very good in solving the logistic difficulties related to the remoteness of the region. Definitely recommended if you want to experience remote far Eastern Nepal.
A truly amazing experience. A well- paced itinerary, an excellent guide and driver, who enabled us to get a real feel of the country, its culture, traditions and people.
Logistics brilliant for a large camping trek involving animals in very remote area. Great combination of remote trekking and sightseeing. Very good sirdar. Also group seemed to bond well so whole trip was a lot of fun and made some good friends.
