Reviews About Trip

Our 4-day trip to Pokhara Valley with Mountain Rock Treks. The trip from KTM was nice, with all activities arranged perfectly.

The Pokhara tour was just so good to see the best view in Pokhara Valley.

Love boat trip in Phewa Lake. The guide was too friendly and so efficient. Truly a relaxing trip in Pokhara; surely come back again.

Doing the Everest Luxury Kongde Trek with a helicopter return was luxury and adventure combined. Mountain Rock Treks organized everything to perfection, making it one of the most stress-free and enjoyable trips I have ever been on. The trek itself was amazing; we walked around 4-5 hours per day on beautiful trails passing through Sherpa Villages. The lodges were of a premium standard, and the food was exceptional. However, the absolute highlight was the helicopter flight back to Kathmandu, where we flew over Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar, getting stunning views of Nuptse & Lhotse as well as many other mountains. I can’t thank all of you at Mountain Rock Treks enough for such an unforgettable trip. Would do this trek again in a heartbeat.

I trekked EBC 3 years back and wanted to do something a bit bigger challenge than just EBC; Gokyo Chola Pass Trek popped up the perfect plan. As per my friend's recommendation, I also used Mountain Rock Treks. They were fantastic at organizing everything. The trail was really hard, especially the climb to Chola Pass. Still, our guide kept motivating us, making sure we were fine. Tea houses across the Cho La Pass are basic, not as good as EBC ones, but still pretty decent compared to how remote that area is. 

Shared jeep was great value compared to helicopter backups. At 4:30 AM in Thamel we were picked up by Mountain Rock;s guide. The good conditions of the Jeep handled Salieri's steep hills with ease. While seats were rigid, the crew provided fleece blankets and thermoses of hot water. We reached Surkhe by 7 PM, exhausted but thrilled to have avoided Luka’s fog. The company guides at the Lukla had our permits ready—no wait whatsoever. This route adds one extra day but cuts out all weather anxiety as well as the cancellations and Lukla flight postponement. Perfect for monsoon trekkers.

That acclimatisation day at Cheram saved my trek. I felt strong at base camp while other people from different groups were struggling badly. Safety before speed is obviously Mountain Rock Treks' motto. And that attention to detail is precisely what you want on a trail this remote.

Mountain Rock Treks was efficient to get in most of the highlights of Bhaktapur Durbar, the Golden Gate, Vatsala Temple, and Bhairavnath in one day. Our funny and interesting guide kept things moving at every stop, and he got us through the very busy squares of Bhaktapur very well. Transport from the hotel to the site and back was timely and comfortable.

The festival at Tengboche Monastery is so energized and spiritual. The costumes and dances are incredible to witness, not to mention an up-close look into Sherpa culture. We also got to explore the surroundings, where we were literally breathless by some of the world’s tallest peaks. The staff took great care of us throughout, with yummy food and interesting explanations of the local culture. If you want more than just a trek in the mountains, don’t miss this festival trek! You won’t regret it.

The Short Everest Base Camp Trek with Mountain Rock Treks was worth every moment, effort and penny. The trek, although shortened to ten days, did not feel compacted. Our guide, Dorje, was amazing- his knowledge and excitement made the trip seamless. The sheer beauty of the Himalayas, from the mountains to village lifestyles, was indescribable. The team made sure we were well-acclimated and comfortable, providing nice hotels and meals all along. I enjoyed learning about local culture on this journey surrounded by adventure. If you want a thrilling, AMAZING adventure without a huge time commitment, Mountain Rock Treks is for you. Thanks for an amazing trip.
