Fabulous and varied trip
What a fabulous trip! This holiday offers one of the most inspiring and varied experiences of any of Mountain Kingdoms' many trips. One day you are climbing the slopes of a snow capped volcano in the high Andes or wandering the colonial streets of Quito and staying in great lodges and hotels, while the next you marvel at the stunning wildlife of the Galapagos Islands, have close encounters with unique birds such as the Blue Footed Booby, meet ancient tortoises and walk through enormous colonies of sea lions, with opportunities to swim with penguins or snorkel amongst exotic fish, all from the comfort of good standard accommodation on three of the islands.

Bhutan on two wheels
We experience the wonders of Bhutan on two wheels and joined the celebrations at the Punakha Tsechu, one of BhutanÕs most impressive festivals.
Rewarding trek
Stunning! I can't imagine a better way to discover Petra; the trek through Dana Nature Reserve and camping under clear desert skies were a real pleasure. I would highly recommend entering Petra from the 'backdoor' - a great reward at the end of a beautiful trek. This trip was culturally rewarding from start to finish.
Magical lack of crowds
I just wanted to add my personal thanks to you guys for such a superb trek. Truly the best ever: wonderful scenery & cultural environment, a magical lack of crowds, vigorous enough without being too much, perfect weather, good equipment & food and a professional and experienced guide and team that worked professionally and seamlessly and were a pleasure to interact with.
Excellent Sherpas
Very well organised - gave us confidence. Excellent Sherpas who made us feel cared for, friendly office staff, a really good combination of two treks, was ideal for a first visit to Nepal.
Superb!
It was a holiday and experience of a lifetime; I look forward to another trip. Sirdars made the experience extremely interesting with their willingness to share the knowledge about their country. Superb!
Stunningly beautiful
I remember reading Thor Hyerdahls book Aku Aku when I was about 14 years old. I thought it was the best book I'd ever read and it left an indelible impression on me. Later I saw a re-run of Thor Hyerdahls Kon Tiki film and I promised myself that one day I would visit Easter Island. It did not disappoint, it is a stunningly beautiful island and the mystery still remains.

Most-impressed
So many very happy memories, thinking about next year now and can't decide where to go! Too many wonderful trips to choose from. We will certainly travel with MK again, most-impressed.
Fantastic trip and life memories
We enjoyed everything! We felt that we were in safe hands. The whole experience was beyond our expectations. Overall a fantastic trip and life memories, thank you so much.
First class
Can't say enough about Jigme, our guide, he made the trip for all of us. His attention to health and details were amazing. Everest Summit Lodges staff were also first class. Overall very impressed with MK, will use again for sure
Stunning scenery
A really excellent experience with stunning scenery and the weather could not have been better.
Wonderful experience
It was a wonderful experience. I particularly liked the scenery, company, leadership and the friendliness of the Nepali people. The comfort of the en-suite facilities in the lodges were greatly appreciated.
Another wonderful trek
We would like to take this opportunity to thank MK for such a wonderful Trek. This was our 3rd MK holiday and we have been absolutely delighted and inspired by each of them.
Another superb trip
I returned from MK's Cardamom Mountains trek yesterday and want to thank you and the teams here and in Cambodia for yet another superb trip. Our in-country guide was outstanding. His generosity of spirit, knowledge and language skills fostered absolute confidence in him. He was attentive, patient, meticulously organised and had a wonderful sense of humour.
Memories will last a lifetime
We just wanted to say a personal thank you to you for all your help in arranging what has been the most fantastic holiday we have ever had. Everything was perfect from start to finish and we have many wonderful memories that will last us a lifetime.
attention to detail was excellent
The guides were all good. What I enjoy about travelling with Mountain Kingdoms, are the interesting locations, attention to detail and tourism with a conscience.
Remote
The trek was the ideal way to explore Jordan. We trekked through the beautiful Jordanian mountains and stayed in remote camps that were pitched for us each night in the best spots. Approaching Petra from the 'back door' meant avoiding all the crowds. Two other big highlights of the trip were the warm welcome that we received from the Jordanian people and the delicious food.
Quality service
MK provided that little extra comfort, quality and personal service to enable full enjoyment of the trip.
