I recently set out to Kathmandu from Bangalore to see around Guhyeshwari Shaktipeeth, Lord Pashupatinath Temple, Jal Narayan/Budhanilkantha Temple, and other pilgrimage sites in Pokhara, Janakpuri, Lumbini, etc. Arranged a touring package through Mountain Rock Treks. Since I began contacting them, they have always stood by my side to help with my visit to Nepal. They offered me a 13-day pilgrimage package deal at a very affordable cost with which I visited both the pilgrimage places. Dipak from Mountain Rock Treks was at the airport to pick me up, and he handled the tour itineraries to make my stay there. I also visited these places and watched Bagmati Ganga Aarthi in the evening.
During our EBC trekking, our flight from Kathmandu to Lukla was cancelled because it was peak travelling season. Fortunately, Mountain Rock Treks had arranged a flight from Ramechhap to Lukla, saving us important days. Initially, I was a little unhappy with this change, but I later discovered the Ramechhap option was rather nice. It was a flight of sorts, though scenic, and I saw the Himalayas that I would not have seen otherwise. We were also surprised with how efficient Mountain Rock Treks was in dealing with the rerouting. They immediately rearranged our bookings and ensured a direct link to the Ramechhap flight. This is flexible, and if you do not mind moving around a bit, this can be good, especially in the high trekking season with Mountain Rock Treks.
The hike from Mountain Rock to Gosaikunda last year was not only about travelling to the place but also about the trip of self-exploration. This was a spiritually-centred voyage. The Langtang region's pristine beauty and the quietness of Gosaikunda filled me with a unique sense of peacefulness and spirituality. Mountain Rock Treks did an excellent job in this aspect. The experts made us feel safe & secure but also filled us with knowledge about this day's customs and purpose. We joined in the festivities with the other pilgrims alike, and hence, we experienced a reality beyond that of the physical journey.
I did the Tilicho Lake trek with my family, and I had my parents (they are in their 50s) traveling with me who love to trek, but I knew the entire trek would not be possible for them. Mountain Rock Treks has organized a mix of trekking and jeep rides so that it makes it easier for everyone. The team was extremely cooperative; they adjusted the pace according to everybody so that we all enjoyed our time there! For me, doing Tilicho Lake with my family is something I will always cherish; if you plan a trip with your family and want some adventure plus comfort, this is definitely the way to do it.
Nepal unfolded like a holy tapestry on our 13-day pilgrimage. Mom and Dad, their faces etched with familiar devotion, visited Pashupatinath, the vibrant chaos a symphony to their prayers. We stood by the ghats, the Bagmati whispering tales of life and rebirth. Janakpur's charm unveiled Sita's story, leaving us with a newfound respect for our epics. Muktinath, perched high in the Himalayas, tested our resilience but rewarded us with the golden glint of Vishnu.
Hiking during this time was never easy, and our trip to the EBC was no exception. Luckily, Mountain Rock Treks offered a rescue – Ramechhap to Lukla flight. This changed the Itinerary; however, this was not a problem because Mountain Rock Treks were very flexible. The team was able to rearrange our flights in a very short time and make our trip to Ramechhap as easy as they could. The flight was also thrilling as we got a plane view of the Himalayan mountains. When we first landed in Lukla, we were energetic and ready for the actual trek because of Mountain Rock Treks.
Our Mt. Everest base camp (EBC) trek got off to a bump because my friend showed signs of altitude sickness at Namche Bazaar (3443 metres). Worrying about him, we contacted the company Mountain Rock Treks, and in a couple of hours, they arranged evacuation for him by helicopter to Kathmandu. An effective team that specialised in the transfer ensured a smooth and speedy process, with safety as a priority. Eventually, fortunately, he made a prompt recovery at a hospital in Kathmandu. Since one of us was suffering from altitude sickness that was limiting us from continuing our trek, the chopper service by Mountain Rock Treks made the medical evacuation a great one without a single worry of suffering.
I recently completed the 14-day Luxury Annapurna Base Camp Trek with Mountain Rock Trek, and I can confidently say it was one of the most unforgettable travel experiences of my life.
From start to finish, the professionalism, organization, and attention to detail by Mountain Rock Trek were exceptional. Upon arrival in Kathmandu, we were greeted warmly by Mr. Dipak and transferred to a beautiful boutique hotel. The accommodations throughout the trek—whether in the city or in the mountains—were far more comfortable than I expected, especially considering the remote locations. The upgraded lodges along the trail were cozy, clean, and offered warm showers, delicious meals, and even Wi-Fi in some places!
The trek itself was breathtaking. Each day offered something new: lush forests, terraced fields, charming villages, and, of course, the jaw-dropping views of Himalayan. Reaching Annapurna Base Camp at sunrise, surrounded by a 360-degree panorama of Himalayan giants, was beyond words. The sense of achievement, peace, and beauty in that moment is something I’ll carry forever.
What made this trek feel truly “luxury” wasn’t just the accommodation and food—it was the level of service, personalized care, and the stress-free planning that Mountain Rock Trek delivered. Every detail, from permits to transfers to dietary preferences, was taken care of seamlessly.
This trip is perfect for those who want to explore the Himalayas in comfort while still experiencing the authenticity and adventure of trekking in Nepal. I wholeheartedly recommend Mountain Rock Trek and this itinerary to anyone looking for a high-quality, enriching, and comfortable Himalayan journey.
Namaste and thank you again to the entire team for making this a dream come true!
