Traveller Stories

“An unforgettable trek”

This was our first trek in Nepal, and Jiban made it feel very manageable from start to finish. The walk into Gokyo was beautiful, but the views from Gokyo Ri were something else entirely. We had a great time and really appreciated how relaxed and helpful he was throughout.

“Great local company and a fantastic trek”

We booked the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek through MountainKick and were very happy with how it went. Communication beforehand was clear, the arrangements were straightforward, and the team was helpful throughout. The trek itself was beautiful -- lovely villages, mountain views, and an amazing sunrise from Poon Hill. A great option for a shorter trek in Nepal.

“More than just a wildlife trip”

Travelling with a group of five friends, we had a brilliant time in Chitwan. The wildlife was obviously the main attraction, but we also really enjoyed visiting the Tharu village and learning about local life. The whole experience felt relaxed and personal -- MountainKick were excellent to deal with and everything went smoothly from start to finish.

“A great experience with MountainKick”

We booked as a small group of two and were happy with MountainKick from our very first conversation. Everything was explained clearly beforehand and the arrangements were simple and well organized. The trek itself was fantastic, especially the villages, local hospitality, and quieter trails -- it felt like a more authentic side of Nepal rather than a busy route. We'd definitely book with them again.

“One of the best things we did in Nepal”

We travelled as a couple and picked MountainKick after talking to a few local companies -- glad we did. Kishor made us feel comfortable from day one. He knew the route well but also took time to tell us about the places and people we passed. It was challenging without ever tipping into overwhelming, and waking up at Annapurna Base Camp with mountains all around is something neither of us…

“An unforgettable Nepal experience”

This was our first visit to Nepal and we wanted something more active than a standard sightseeing holiday. The trip gave us a great balance of adventure, culture, and time to enjoy the scenery. Everything was handled well by MountainKick and the local team were genuinely welcoming -- we left feeling we'd experienced far more of Nepal than we expected.

“One of our favourite parts of Nepal”

Our family of four loved the Bardiya safari. We saw rhinos, crocodiles, monkeys, and an incredible number of birds, and the children were fascinated by everything. We also enjoyed meeting local people and learning about life around the park -- MountainKick handled the arrangements very smoothly and made it a really enjoyable few days.

“A memorable journey through the Himalayas”

We wanted something longer and less crowded, and this trek delivered exactly that. The landscape shifts constantly, from the forests of Langtang to the high lake at Gosainkunda and then down through Helambu. The MountainKick team were very professional and our guide took great care of the group -- challenging but genuinely rewarding.

“EBC and Gokyo Valley Trek”

A few of us did the EBC and Gokyo Valley trek with MountainKick, and Kumar made it a really smooth experience. He kept a close eye on everyone, especially once things got harder at altitude. Passing through Gokyo before pushing on to Base Camp was a highlight -- the scenery along that stretch is something else. Well organized from start to finish.

“More than just a trek”

We chose this trek because we wanted a mix of culture and mountains, and it delivered exactly that. Kumar was patient, helpful, and always happy to answer our questions. The homestay experience was a real highlight, while Poon Hill gave us spectacular views. MountainKick organized everything smoothly and made the trip very easy.
