- Fery S0 contributionsSuper worth-it 👍🏼I enjoyed the tour so much! Got to see key highlights around Kathmandu. The program was impeccably design and professionally executed. My tour guide, Trilochan, was very kind, helpful, and informative. I loved Bhaktapur and would come back in a heartbeat.Written August 18, 2024
- Sam v0 contributionsAmazing!!We had an amazing experience during our trek thanks to our amazing guide Yaman and our very friendly porters Som and Babu. We had so much fun together. They led our family safely to the Annapurna Base Camp and back. All with all, this was a journey to never forget. Surely recommend booking with this trekking company!Written August 2, 2024
- 493tjeerdg0 contributions4 days track: Gandruk-Landruk-dhampusExcellent trip guided by Sandeep. We landscape was beautiful, walking though forests, small villages and rice fields. Due to rainy season not many mountainviews, but sitting in a hot spring while it is raining was a nice experience. Due to a recent landslide, the path was washed away but Sandeep and his team found a save passage across the landslide. There were a lot of leashes near the river but we all managed to get most timely removed. Food was also good and people in teahouses very friendly. In summary, a highly recommendable tour guided by this very heartly guide with his team.Written August 2, 2024
- 743arjenr0 contributionsReally good walkingtrip with a lovely guide, Tilak KafletWe went on a 11 days trip to Poon Hill and Annapurna base camp with a friend. It was amazing and everything was well arranged ( hotels and transport). Especially because we had an amazing guide, Tilak Kaflet. He was friendly, arranged everything, made some good changes in the tour for us, thought us a lot about de culture, the food and the people. And when I got sick, due to bacteria, he brought me to the hospital. Even when his work as a guide was over he visited me everyday in his own time and brought me when I left the hispital to the hotel. I advice everybody this company and thus guide.Written May 29, 2024
- 845judithn0 contributionsUnforgettable Annapurna Base Camp Trek!The trekking was wonderfull and a unforgettable experience! We really recommend to do it if you visit Nepal. Organisation, guiding and also the views are amazing. We had a really great time with our guide Raju Tamang and assistant guide Bikram Rai, we couldn't wish for better ones. Their knowledge, responsibility, great service and fun we made together was very nice. We will never forget this cultural and nature experience in the beautiful mountains. If you book a trekking with Royal Mountain Travel ask for Raju Tamang and Bikram Rai to guide you ;)Written May 11, 2024
- LoveTravel8244920 contributionsA group tour of NepalRoyal Mountain travel arranged a cultural highlight of Nepal with a 4 day trek to Poon Hill. I worked with Sabita their business development manager to arrange the tour and she exceeded expectations and went above and beyond. Narayan was my guide and he is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I am so thankful to work with this company and highly recommend for anyone who is coming to Nepal, Tibet, or Bhutan.Written April 21, 2024
- Departure307595282020 contributionsBreathtaking 10 days trekking to Poonhill and ABCTogether with my wife and my oldest son we had a breathtaking 10 day trekking tour from Pokhara to Poon Hill, further to Annapurna Base Camp and back to Phedi. The professional guide Sandepp Basnet supported us together with two very friendly porters throughout the tour. They were a great team with us. He gave us a lot of background information about the culture, the religion, the food, the education and the life in Nepal, which was fascinating for us. We learnt a lot about his country. Sandeep was taking great care of us. We were hiking 4-7 hours per day, in some cases steep up and down, through 3 climate zones from subtropical to minus 8 degree centigrade. We had bright skies, short rain falls, a thunder storm and snowfall. We also had the chance to watch a Buddhist temple festival for Nepalese New Year. All in all, it was a great. All our expectations were more than met. We are planning to return back to Nepsal and we will definitely rely on Sandeep‘s services again.Written April 21, 2024
- L v0 contributionsStunning eco-trekkingWonderful experience, 6 day community trekking. What an amazing trekking this was, with stunning nature, nice climbs, lots and lots of stairs 😊 and nice walks ans -luckily- some days clear view so we could see the Annapurna from Mohare hill.. what a stunning experience this was.. we felt especially in Tikot really dipped into the local culture and could have an exyhow it is to live in a village like that. The local hotels and homestays (which were actually also kind of B&bs with mostly very nice rooms especially in BAs Kharka, what exceeded every expectation also by the very friendly owners. Great food and nice companions that we met during our trip were a good extra😊 For travellers in spring: it can be warm but some nights it can be very cold😊 luckily our sleeping bags and blankets from the lodges kept us warm at night. The skilled, very friendly, patient and ever helpful guidance of Raju Tamang and Surat Lama, such truly nice people were key to the trip and made it an unforgettable experience. We had a lot of information to our countless questions and were helped so friendly.. there is a lot to learn from this attitude in Holland😊 I give this a 10 out of 10!!Written April 12, 2024
- 504heleenp0 contributionsI wish….come true!How to put into words what I have experienced so far. Imagine spending years and years thinking about travelling to Nepal and going for a 6 day trekking. Then one day it’s finally happening and on top of all that you get to have a guide like Raju Tamang and a porter like Surat Lama. The both of them went out of their way to make my trip the best experience I could have hoped for. Both of them ever so humble yet informative, both of them quiet but leading the way if necessary. Never have I felt more secure in my ways, my every need tended to and al my questions answered. A big thank you to Raju, who so quietly stayed ‘behind’ I order not to put any pressure on my slow pace going uphill. Bistari-bistari, langzaam-langzaam. A big thank you to Surat who carried the big backpack all those days. I wouldn’t have been able to do this trekking without his help. All the days spent on the trekking I only needed to submerge myself in the beautiful landscape, the breathtaking Mountain View’s, the interaction with local people and enjoying the excellent food and drinks. And how much fun it was to play a Nepalese card game all together. I will surely introduce the game once home in Holland. I could go on and on about these wonderful days with Raju and Surat, but best to experience this kind of adventure yourself. I know I will keep this in my heart forever.Written April 12, 2024
- S8645RUsteves0 contributionsWonderful experience, well organized and insightfulThe entire day was well planned out by our guide and driver. The transportation was efficient, clean and safe driving. At each and every site we were provided interesting detailed explanations about the place, the people and traditions. Our guide was proactive, patience and provided thoughtful care. Bhaktapur, Panauti and Patan were spectacular. The entire experience was flawlessWritten April 4, 2024
- rintsd0 contributionsABC Annapurna Base Camp with Sandeep and Uma NathMet Sandeep the evening before we left voor ABC and helped me to prepare as good as possible. He is a young experienced guide who knows what he is doing, knows how to plan the travel days as optimal as possible and cares for your wellbeing. Together with porter Uma Nath he forms a good team. I recommend him as your guide.Written March 19, 2024
- juliano7470 contributionsTurning wood into art.My experience learning about and practicing wood carving at Nyatapola crafts was totally enjoyable. To learn and practice this incredible craft from the people who have been immersed in it for generations was truly memorable. Monica and her team were very welcoming and made the learning fun. If you would like the opportunity to immerse yourself in this fascinating culture of turning wood into art and learning the skills to take away and practice yourself then this is an experience that I can highly recommend..

- kendY6620GY0 contributionsA wonderful experience in Bardiya NP and Naarkot with RMTI travelled with RMT back in December 2019 and was very pleased to contact them again in April 2023 to arrange my visit to Nepal last month. This time, I spent about nine days in Nepal visiting Bardiya National Park and hiking in the Nagarkot area. Sabita Khadka from RMT put together a very good itinerary which enabled me to enjoy both places in a very relaxed manner. I stayed at the Tharu Community Homestay in Bardiya and the hosts made we feel very welcomed and as one of their family with their warm hospitality. I also enjoyed the walks through the Community forest with the guides. The highlight was the two jeep safaris in Bardiya National Park where I was fortunate to see the Bengal tiger on both days. Again, my thanks to the guide and driver who were very alert throughout to make this a memorable experience. I spent half a day in Bhaktapur and had a good tour of all the cultural sights with the excellent guide, Anup and driver, Shanti. The three nights at the Country Villa Hotel were very enjoyable and the location and views of the mountains from there are simply majestic. The two treks I did from Nagarkot were very nice walking through different terrain and landscapes. My thanks to Anup and Shanti for their wonderful guiding and driving respectively. I hope to travel to Nepal in the future and use the efficient and personalised services of RMT once again.Written January 21, 2024
- G7015WBjoelb0 contributionsAmazing 5-day trek to Poon HillWe did the 5-day Poon Hill Trek with Royal Mountain and it was great! Every aspect of the trek (accommodation, food, transport) was perfectly organized. Be prepared for the cold, if you are planning to do this trek in the winter (we did it in January), but also, be prepared to get blown away by the astonishing views of the Annapurna mountains. We enjoyed every bit of it. Our guide Yuvi and porters Man & Coron were extremely helpful. Yuvi is a great trekking guide who - besides being a very nice guy - takes his work as a trekking guide serieus which makes you feel comfortable and safe. We would defintely recommend booking this trek with this organization!Written January 17, 2024

Choosing Royal Mountain Travel has been the biggest blessing of my 7 day Nepal Stay! After traveling to 45+ countries I can honestly say this is one of the most authentic cultural experience I have ever had, in any country. I walked into their office and met my wonderful travel agent Sabita on day 2 of travel, gave her a fixed budget and she made the best out of it. When my trip to Pokhara was cancelled due to weather, I was immediately rebooked with a monastery trip on the same day with adjusted itinerary, so I didn’t feel bored. Every day Sabita made sure I have a full day of itinerary at my request. My driver Guvinda speaks very good English which made my pick up very easy (I stayed at a very difficult area), he was able to pick up/drop off at my place of request without issues. Always came to work with a smile. Cared for my safety. My guide for 2 days, Anup was very knowledgeable and patient with me. All around a good guy! We are at the best Newari places at very fair price. My office agent Kabindra is also very patient when working with me. My cooking class was hosted by one of the senior guide’s wife Saveena and we had such a good time visiting local markets and just talking about life. Oh did I mention my mask painting class, wood carving class and my Everest mountain flight? 10/10 will chose this honest travel agency again. If there’s 10 stars I’d honestly give it to them. This review is not commissioned. I hope you have a good time in Nepal! ❤️🤞🕉️ last pic is me and Govinda’s goodbye ice cream. I will miss everyone here!

My wife and I enjoyed this wonderful hike with our tour guide Raj.
Raj was very professional and friendly. He gave us plenty of time to stop and take photos. He explained the area, the plants, everything round us. He is very knowledgeable and speak very good English.
He treated us to tea and went out of his way to give us the most wonderful experience during this hike.
We’re planning to do other hikes with this company and Raj.
Bravo!

This was my first hiking experience in Nepal, and I highly recommend it. The guide was amazing, friendly and knowledgeable. You work up a good appetite on the hike, before being treated to an amazing lunch at a homestay. A real experience.

Great trip! The hike is lovely, but having a few extra days to explore the Community Homestay program on my own at the end was incredibly special and gave me a slower, calmer perspective that was critical to my understanding and love of Nepal. I was able to experience two different homestay families in Panauti and I felt blessed for it. And my goodness! The food! Honestly, I had some good food in Nepal, but what I had at the homestays, cooked by the women/mothers, was absolutely spectacular. Language was a lot easier than I anticipated actually, because there's always someone from the younger generation around that speaks English. It's amazing to get to experience such an ancient culture that's so alive today, and the way to do it is not to visit as many temples as possible, go stay with a family, it's such a treat. Also, ask about the Nagarkot homestay, it's a lot simpler in many ways and more remote, but it was one of my favs, total cultural immersion.

I travelled with RMT to Nepal on a unique trip focused on their incredible community homestay program. We were lead by an amazing national guide, whose depth of knowledge about Nepal, good humor, and trip facilitation skills made him one of the best guides I have ever had. He and RMT ensured our trip was not only seamless logistically, but that we had diverse opportunities to experience true Nepali culture. Whether hiking in the middle of beautiful hilltops, or sharing a meal with our host family, or visiting ancient temples, each part of our tour was planned with thoughtfulness, creativity, and professionalism. And they ensured the food was good to boot! The community homestay program they have grown, is a really valuable an authentic way to experience Nepal as well. Welcoming host families, comfortable accommodations, and conversations and activities you won't have anywhere else!
Thank you for an amazing experience!
