Traveller Stories

“A great introduction to Kathmandu”

We booked the Kathmandu City Tour for our first day in Nepal, and it was a great decision. Our guide showed us the main cultural sites but also explained the stories and history behind them, which made the visit far more interesting. A relaxed, well-organized day, and MountainKick were very easy to deal with.

“A wonderful introduction to the Himalayas”

We had a fantastic few days in the Everest region with Kumar, who made the whole trip feel easy and relaxed rather than rushed. The walk to Tengboche was beautiful, and the views of Ama Dablam from up there are hard to beat. A great option if you want a real taste of the Khumbu without committing to the full Everest Base Camp trek.

“Incredible views and a fantastic guide”

Jiban was excellent throughout. Our small group of friends found the whole thing easy going thanks to him -- from the daily walking to finding the right spots to stop for tea. Gokyo itself was beautiful, and the sunrise from Gokyo Ri was absolutely worth the early climb.

“An unforgettable Himalayan trek”

Hari was a fantastic guide for our Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam trek -- experienced, easygoing, and always checking in on how we were doing. The scenery was incredible, especially the views of Ama Dablam along the way. Reaching Base Camp was a huge moment, and the whole trek was a great experience.

“An incredible off the beaten path trek”

Jeevan guided us on the Nar Phu and Annapurna Circuit trek, and the Nar Phu Valley felt completely different from the more popular routes -- small villages, old stone houses, and incredible mountain scenery. He knew the area well and made the whole journey comfortable. Crossing Kang La was a real highlight, with unbelievable views from the top.

“Perfect trek for a short holiday”

With limited time in Nepal, the ABC Express trek was ideal. Kumar kept us moving at a comfortable pace without ever making it feel rushed. The scenery was incredible, and reaching base camp in just a few days felt like a real achievement. MountainKick organized everything smoothly.

“A great introduction to Nepal”

Travelling to Nepal for the first time as a couple, we had a wonderful experience with Dilman. We wanted to see more than just Kathmandu and the mountains, and this trip gave us a great mix of culture, local villages, and wildlife. He was friendly and knowledgeable and made the whole journey feel very relaxed -- a great way to see a different side of Nepal.

“A great introduction to Kathmandu”

With only a couple of days in Kathmandu before our trek, this tour was a perfect introduction. We visited incredible temples and heritage sites and learned far more about the valley's history and culture than we would have on our own. Our guide was knowledgeable without overwhelming us with information -- a really enjoyable day with MountainKick.

“Wonderful experience with MountainKick”

Furi looked after our group of three friends extremely well -- friendly, knowledgeable, and always seemed to know when we needed to rest. We loved the villages around Manang and the dramatic scenery higher up. Thorong La was tough, but reaching the top made every step of it worth it.

“An incredible way to ride the Annapurna Circuit”

The three of us had an amazing time cycling the Annapurna Circuit with Jeevan. The route was challenging in places, which was part of what made it so rewarding -- the scenery shifts constantly, from green valleys and villages to the huge mountains around Manang and Thorong La. Jeevan was excellent with the group and MountainKick had everything well organized.
