We felt throughout that we were in the hands of accomplished experts in the field. We particularly enjoyed taking a trip that was so far removed from many other tour packages. The tour combined awe-inspiring scenery, local contact, expert insights into a serene way of life, deeply committed staff, good accommodation (for that part of the world) and mostly excellent vegetarian food that is so hard to find in many places elsewhere.

Enjoyable adventure trip
It was a very enjoyable adventure trip, well planned and full of interest. The way the places we stayed in gradually built up in altitude was very helpful. It was a tough trip in physical terms but a great experience.

Remote and cultural
When I review the 1000+ images of the trip, I was very pleased I went - met my expectations of the remoteness and culture. Will happily travel with Himalayan Kingdoms (now Mountain Kingdoms) again.
I thought the festival was quite amazing and completely mediaeval, as was Lo Manthang itself, a wonderful reward for six days hard walking. Unforgettable.
An excellent trip all round, especially the compatibility of the clients, and the firm and cautious leadership.

Bhutan trek - great trek crew
Our trek leader and his team throughout the trek could not have been more helpful - they were all knowledgeable and could not be faulted in anything they did. The food that was prepared for us was incredible compared to similar holidays we have been on.

Excellent trek
Congratulations and many thanks to all of you for an excellent trek and wonderful experience.
I can only say that I enjoyed every minute of the adventure with an excellent group of individuals who became fellow trekkers and friends. An excellent experience made possible by MK's professional and personal attention to detail and planning.
Wonderful, we felt it gave a great picture of Bhutanese life, culture, flora and fauna and the people.

Dramatic mountain scenery
The generally warm, dry conditions and the long days of sunshine are powerful client recruiting factors, along with perhaps the world's most dramatic ice-snow-rock mountain scenery ... this is the true 'Roof of the World' as Tibet or Nepal have nothing this extensive and this high. Northern Pakistan is a world apart culturally, religiously and security-wise from the Afghan/Pakistan border areas. A great trek!

Merak-Sakten Trek - another world
What an amazing insight into Bhutanese culture. The east of Bhutan is like another world.
