Traveller Stories

“A trek I will always remember”

The Annapurna Circuit is one of the best travel experiences I've had. Trekking with a small group, I really appreciated the slower pace through the different valleys and villages. The scenery around Thorong La was spectacular. MountainKick handled the practical side of everything, which meant we could just enjoy the journey itself.

“A truly unique biking trip”

We had an unforgettable time cycling through Upper Mustang with Ramesh. The scenery was incredible and every day felt different. Some of the riding was tough, especially with the altitude and rough roads, but that made reaching the villages and viewpoints all the more rewarding. Ramesh was excellent throughout, and MountainKick handled the logistics well.

“Hard work but completely worth it”

Kishor was great company for two weeks on the trail. The higher sections were demanding, but he kept us at a sensible pace and checked in regularly on how we were feeling. The views from Thorong La were incredible, and we also really enjoyed the villages and shifting landscapes along the way. A brilliant experience overall.

“Worth every step”

Lok Raj was brilliant from start to finish -- calm, knowledgeable, and good at judging when to push on and when to slow down. The trek was physically demanding, particularly on the higher passes, but we always felt well looked after. The views from Cho La are something I won't forget.

“Lovely few days in the mountains”

Jeevan was excellent and very easy to travel with -- he took his time, explained things along the way, and made sure we were comfortable each day. The trek suited our group well and the scenery was beautiful. We especially enjoyed the quieter trails away from the larger villages.

“Great guide and an amazing trek”

Hari looked after our group of three really well -- he knew the area and the trail thoroughly and was always happy to explain things along the way. We had some beautiful weather and the views around Langtang were incredible. This was our first trek in Nepal and a very memorable one.

“Challenging but absolutely worth it”

Hari was friendly, experienced, and very good at keeping the group comfortable on the long walking days. The scenery around Manaslu was incredible and kept changing as we gained altitude. Larkya La was the hardest part, but standing at the top looking across the mountains made all the effort worthwhile.

“Great experience from beginning to end”

Gopal looked after our group of friends really well -- easygoing, knowledgeable, and always seemed to know when we needed a break or a bit of encouragement. The villages, waterfalls, and mountain views made every day of the trek enjoyable, and reaching Annapurna Base Camp was a genuinely special moment. MountainKick's arrangements were clear from the start, no surprises anywhere.

“An unforgettable few days in Nepal”

We wanted a taste of the Everest region without the time commitment of Base Camp, and this trek was exactly right. Sher was a fantastic guide who kept us comfortable throughout. The trail through the forests and villages was beautiful, and arriving at Tengboche surrounded by mountains is a moment that's stuck with us.

“Two incredible highlights in one trek”

Hari was fantastic with our group of friends -- he knew the trail well and was constantly checking that everyone was comfortable. Tilicho Lake was spectacular, and the views from Thorong La were just as impressive. It was a demanding trek, but the route gave us something new almost every day.
