Traveller Stories

“An amazing trek around the Annapurnas”

Kumar made the whole trek genuinely enjoyable, and as a couple we appreciated how flexible he was with our pace. The scenery changed completely every few days, and crossing Thorong La was a huge highlight. MountainKick handled everything well -- we never once had to worry about logistics.

“Perfect short trek in Nepal”

Kumar was a great guide for our Poon Hill trek -- we only had a short time in Nepal, so this was the perfect way to see the mountains without spending too long on the trail. The sunrise from Poon Hill was beautiful, and the villages along the way were a real highlight. Kumar made the whole thing easy and enjoyable.

“A fantastic short trek”

Hari made our Mardi Himal trek genuinely enjoyable. The trail through the forest was beautiful, and the views opened up more and more as we climbed. Reaching Mardi Himal Base Camp with the mountains so close was an amazing feeling, and MountainKick had everything well organized from the start.

“The ultimate Everest trek”

Kumar was a fantastic guide for our Three Passes trek. We knew going in it would be challenging, but he made it feel manageable throughout. The passes themselves were incredible, especially Renjo La, and the views along the whole route went beyond what we expected. A very memorable few weeks in Nepal.

“Gokyo was even better than we expected”

Our trek through the Gokyo Valley with Kumar exceeded expectations. He was a great guide and kept a close eye on how everyone was holding up. The views around Gokyo Lake were incredible, and seeing Everest from Gokyo Ri was easily one of the highlights of the whole Nepal trip. We'd trek with MountainKick again in a heartbeat.

“An incredible high altitude adventure”

We had an unforgettable trip through the Everest region, crossing the high passes and finishing with Island Peak. Pasang was excellent throughout, and his experience in the mountains gave us a lot of confidence on the harder days. It was demanding, but the scenery and sense of achievement made it completely worth it. Island Peak was the perfect way to close out an already incredible trek.

“We had the trip of our lifetime”

We had the trip of our lifetime thanks to the warm hospitality bestowed upon us and the beauty of such amazing country. From well-organized trips, exotic locations, cultural sightseeing to the thrill of safari, “soft” trekking to Poon Hill, everything was memorable. Our trekking guide was Shiva, apparently named after Lord Shiva and how I miss him even now. From his command in English language to his presentation skills, everything…

“Amazing EBC and Island Peak experience”

My friend and I had an incredible time doing EBC and Island Peak with MountainKick. Kishor took great care of us on the trekking portion, and Tenzing was fantastic once we got to the climb. We never felt rushed and always felt well looked after. Island Peak was easily the hardest part of the trip, but also one of the most rewarding things either of us has done.

“Brilliant experience”

Our group trekked through Gokyo Valley and on to Everest Base Camp, and it was brilliant from start to finish. Rames guided us and kept morale high even on the tougher days -- and there were a few. Having someone experienced leading the group made a real difference. Would recommend MountainKick without hesitation.

“Incredible Nepal trek”

I trekked with a small group and couldn't have asked for a better setup. Kisor was calm, experienced, and easy company throughout. The route via Gokyo before reaching Everest Base Camp gave us views that made the whole trip feel bigger than just the final destination. A genuinely great trip with MountainKick.
