Reviews About Trip

Mountain Rock Treks was recommended to me by a friend, and they did not disappoint. The price of the package was more than reasonable considering how well organized and supportive this company is. Our guide, Dawa, took incredible care of us, making sure we were safe, happy, healthy, and able to immerse ourselves in the Himalayas without worrying about anything else when we weren’t trekking. From our airport pick-up upon arrival to helping us find places to rent gear we hadn’t brought with us (specifically sleeping bags), this team’s hospitality can’t be beaten. Not to mention that the trail you hike with this trekking trip also has views of Everest, Cho Oyu, and Gokyo lakes, which are breathtakingly beautiful in person.

Our Annapurna Base Camp trip with Mountain Rock Treks was nothing less than amazing. The scenery was, of course, breathtaking—but it was the people that made the experience.

Our guide, Prabin, and porter Rajan, both went above and beyond every day to keep us motivated, smiling, and safe. The logistics were seamless, and the tea houses were all chosen with purpose and comfort in mind.

We also appreciated the little thoughtful touches—hot tea at all the right moments or a little word of encouragement on the steep climbs. A wonderful group that we will use again.

The helicopter transfer from Kathmandu to Lukla was smooth and thrilling, and what a way it was to bypass the regular trekking challenges. Hotel Everest View is an entire luxury property amid the mountains. Sleeping in the heart of the Himalayas for a night opened memories of some fairy tales. The helicopter tour we took up further from Kala Patthar got literally within touchable distance of Mount Everest. I still can’t believe it actually happened—it felt like a dream. Every detail of our journey was well thought out, and the hospitality was next level. If you want to explore Everest in style and luxury—just go for Mountain Rock Treks.

I found Mountain Rock Treks on an online forum, and I thought I'd book the Nepal-Bhutan tour. I was impressed with the logistics and other support in Bhutan. The guides were helpful and knowledgeable. I was so impressed to have a cultural experience combined with nature's beauty and will never forget the trip.

Mountain Rock Treks organized an amazing pilgrimage to Kailash Mansarovar. As a Bon pilgrim, it was my first time, and I appreciated the effort that had been put into not disturbing our setting with non-Bon pilgrims. Our guides were experts on both organization and spiritual matters, which enriched the journey. The overland part of the journey was made more fun by having a group and its organizers that tried to make everybody comfortable and safe while each day being exposed to new experiences. The trip was worth every penny if you are looking for both adventure and spiritual growth. It is simply beautiful. I am happy every moment I got on this trip.

After a full day of paragliding around Pokhara, I was still a little wired and looking for a different kind of aerial experience, so I booked a hot air balloon flight with Mountain Rock Treks. Floating quietly in the air was an entirely different sensation from all of the activity before. It was great to go with a team of experienced professionals, who provided outstanding service, and to see the Annapurna range and Fishtail mountain from above. Absolutely stunning.

I was only in Kathmandu for a short time so I made a half-day tour. I could not have been happier. Mountain Rock Treks made it easy. From the 5-star hospitality I received when being picked up from my hotel to being dropped off at our hotel, Mountain Rock Treks had it all. The guide, using his narrative, made the old temples, and moving about a busy city a little more magical. The air conditioning, on the transportation provided, was a blessing. 

We booked a small group, from Lhasa to Everest tour, with great luck with Mountain Rock Treks. Guide Rooney was friendly and approachable, and always checked with each traveller, especially those who were struggling more with altitude. He was very respectful of all religious and historical details.
