Mount Chomolhari - great service
Fantastic holiday! What we enjoyed about Mountain Kingdoms was their personal service and their choice of adventure and walking holidays.
Excellent food and service
All airport and hotel pickups were very smooth and timely. DwarikaÕs hotel was amazing and also enjoyed Fishtail Lodge. Ker & Downey lodges were exceptional Ð excellent food and service and very clean and nicely kept gardens. Our guides on trek were local and informed and spoke very good English.
Exceptional - Annapurna and Everest
Ker & Downey lodges were exceptional - excellent food and service and very clean and nicely kept gardens.
Off-the-beaten-path
Well-organised and good itineraries. In each destination there were days when we did not see other tourists.
Well-paced
A superb combination/contrast in this two centre trip, really well-paced and giving time to explore both places well.
Truly memorable holiday
The crew were cheerful and smiling at all times and dedicated themselves to making sure that we were comfortable, well looked after and having an enjoyable experience. The food was excellent, Bhakhat, our fantastic, imaginative cook prepared wonderful, varied food for us. All in all we had a truly memorable holiday from start to finish.
Varied tour
A very interesting and varied tour led by an excellent and understanding guide. I would definitely recommend the experience.
Great Wall of China
What we enjoyed was walking on remote sections of the wall that is not crowded with tourists.
Ideal group size
Small group tour. Excellent local guide.
First class service
The whole trip was well organised from start to finish, and the trek team could not do enough for us. First class.
Well looked after
Having travelled with Mountain Kingdoms several times previously, we felt confident that we would be well looked after. The trek crew were very supportive and great fun to be with.
Excellent
Firstly we really enjoyed the holiday and thought that the pre-trip advice and organisation was excellent. Accommodation was excellent, with the Chhatra Sagar visit the definite highlight. The visit to Udaipur coupled with the trip on the lake was first-rate. The houseboat stay in Kashmir and additional extra visit with the guide up to the mountains was memorable. Overall the food during the whole of the visit was excellent.
Faultless accommodation
What we enjoyed was the selection of the places we visited, and the accommodation could not be faulted both in terms of quality but also in the way they fitted so well together. The luxury tents was rated 'tops' by us all; it was hospitality of the kindest and most sensitive.
Excellent tour
An excellent tour with very good to excellent accommodation, at a nice pace, plenty to see but not rushed, and we got to see parts of the real India. Chhatra Sagar was particularly good. In Kashmir everybody was doing their best for us and I felt safe at all times.
Well-organised
The tour was well organised but flexible, sometimes we did something different because there happened to be the opportunity.
Holiday of a lifetime
Thank you for allowing me the holiday of a lifetime. The two weeks felt like a month and every day was a treasure. The Druk Path Trek is a wonderful experience and the walks beforehand and sightseeing afterwards were well organised, brilliant experiences. I felt very safe and well cared for throughout this exciting program.
Off-the-beaten-path
Being in a small group. Visiting the Haa Valley which seemed to be off the regular tourist circuit. My fellow travellers were delightful. Our local guide Karma and drive Sangay were both excellent and most helpful. I especially enjoyed our visit to the Haa Valley and would recommend that it become a regular feature of trips to Bhutan.
Excellent trip to Bhutan
It was an excellent trip... We really enjoyed the contact that he gave us with his family. We really enjoyed the Paro festival and the dzong.
Away from the crowds
Visiting the north of the island while it still has few tourists was a privilege and greatly interesting and enjoyable. It was an authentic experience and to be encouraged for anyone who is not afraid to go off the beaten track a bit.
Cycling to Chitwan was a highlight
It was a great experience to cycle around the Kathmandu valley rim. To reach the fascinating and historical site of Bhaktapur and the hill resorts of Nagarkot and Namo Buddha on two wheels felt very satisfying. Having a support vehicle to accompany you on the entire journey gave you that added peace of mind. Cycling to Chitwan and spending the day there spotting wildlife in a dugout canoe and on foot was a particular highlight.
