Fantastic support from the Nepalese
I wanted to return to Nepal with Mountain Kingdoms because of the level of care & organisation both in the UK & Nepal. Again we were entrusted to a team who had expertise, organisation and shower sheer hard work and persistence. I knew this trek was going to be very challenging - altitude, distance etc. but we had a lot of great Nepali support staff from beginning to end. We could not have succeeded without them! I am very grateful to all of them for helping us to succeed - it enabled us to see Nepal life and surroundings in an amazing way. I will never forget the breathtaking scenery, the culture and the way of life for many Nepalese.
Well-organised trip to Sri Lanka
A well-organised trip to a country rich in scenery, culture, and history. Good food, warm and welcoming people, and a relaxed approach to life.
Stunning cruise on the Irrawaddy River
This is the second fantastic trip we have had with your company, both organised by Jim who has been helpful, reassuring and always friendly. What we enjoyed was being on such a beautiful river, the attention and friendliness of the boat crew, the variety of activities - village visits, elephant camp, teak bridge, and the beach. Hotels were of an excellent standard. Cannot fault any aspect of this holiday or the previous Indian trip.
Gentle Walking Sri Lanka
What we enjoyed about travelling with Mountain Kingdoms was being able to get feet on the ground and walking, thus seeing more of the real (non-touristy) countryside and meeting the people in their natural environment.
Everest Base Camp in Style
All very well organised. A lot of thought and expertise had obviously gone into the planning of the trek.
Enlightening trip to Bhutan
A most enlightening trip to a mountain kingdom which will remain in my memories as an extremely spiritual and peaceful experience. A great team gave us some very special insight into the harmony of life in Bhutan. The Black-Necked Crane Festival was most interesting.
Well-organised trip
A well-organised trip with excellent attention to our health/welfare (e.g. diet and acclimatisation). Everything worked! The guides/sherpas were clearly well equipped for emergencies (not needed fortunately).
Gentle Walking Nepal (formerly Mid Hills & Village Heartlands)
We like the mix of sightseeing and walking and also the small groups.
Another wonderful trip by Mountain Kingdoms
Excellent organisation/backup from administrators/office staff. Small group. Varied itinerary. Good choice of hotels, excursions, etc. which showed that there had been a lot of research into the country/area/places of interest/history. It was certainly an adventure, and with a lot of variety. Thanks again, Mountain Kingdoms, for another amazing trip.
Golden Trails of Burma
I loved the fact we used local staff, facilities, travelled with locals, met locals etc. We were so lucky to have Nyi Nyi as our guide. He was efficient, helpful and good-humored. He was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble. Brilliantly organised, fantastic friendly local guide, gorgeous people. A truly wonderful experience.
