          Amazing views, Amazing Guide
          We went on the Chisapani- Nagarkot hike. Was misty in June but we were blessed on the second day in Nagarkot when “the grey rain-curtain of this world rolled back, and all turned to silver glass, and then we saw it.” A panoramic view of the Himalayas. Suman went above and beyond for us on our trip and felt like we were hiking with an old friend. We’ll be back.

          Unforgettable journey into Upper Mustang by horse and mountain bike.
          Our group of five set off from Jomson for a 16 day horse and mountain bike trek into Upper Mustang. To call it an extraordinary journey is an understatement! Every day we rode through dramatic landscapes, passing villages and farms, crossing mountain passes, the Himalayas forming a stunning backdrop. After the ride we would check into a traditional tea house, then explore the local monastery before relaxing over a delicious meal. We had a jeep to transport our gear and sometimes the bikes (where necessary). This made everything very easy. Mustang is changing due to the road that has been built, but we still felt part of a timeless place. It was a huge privilege to be there. Our trek was led by the well known Nepali guide TB. It’s hard to put words to what he offered us - insights into places and people, practical advice, kindness, plus lots of fun (and some great curries). Our horseman Lukla accompanied us on foot. He never stopped looking out for our safety and had a close and caring bond with the ponies. The traditional saddles covered with a cushion and layer of carpet were surprisingly comfortable! After the horse trek we moved to the Annapurna area to visit the rhododendron forests. That was unforgettable as well. Back in Kathmandu we were looked after by Suman in the NMT office - another skilled and caring person We would heartily recommend the company and the team. They accommodated us in Green Horizon Hotel while in Kathmandu and the place became a home away from home.

          Beautiful Kanchenjunga Trek
          We had an amazing trek to the Kanchenjunga north and south basecamp with our guide Pasang Sherpa. We could recommend Nepal Mountain Trekkers and our guide Pasang, the organisation was perfect. Thanks for your support

          Langtang with the best guide
          Langtang for 7 days. We loved the nature. One is hiking from normal forests, through bamboo forests, up to scrubs and glaciers. Our guide was excellent he explained us a lot about flora & fauna. He also organized the bus, permit, lunch places etc. We (just) had to hike. The hike includes a lot of uphill stretches, so go slowly. We can really recommend the company and our guide Mod Nath.

          Annapurna Circuit Trek - just amazing!!
          It was our first experience with the Himalayas and certainly not the last one! Everything was professionally organized, from picking us up from the airport, through all transport during our stay, accommodation, meals, trekking organization and much more. Our guide, Shiva, made sure that everything was perfect, he had amazing experience which he shared with us during the expedition and thanks to our porter, Durba, we didn't have to worry about our equipment, he was reliable and we could count on him everyday. We definitely recommend taking advantage of an organized trip, thanks to which we could enjoy the beauty of nature, focus on the trip itself and not worry about organizing every little thing (and believe me, there is a lot of that during such a trip). We felt taken care of but at the same time we had a lot of privacy, which made us feel a bit like we were on an independent trip. We highly recommend it!!

          Upper Mustang horse riding, mountain biking and walking trek. Amazing.
          Ramesh and Suman at NMT and Green Horizon Hotel were amazing and very very helpful. They arranged a combination trip of horse riding and mountain biking to Upper Mustang. This worked out fantastically for all of us and our guide TB couldn’t have been more helpful. We also had a back up jeep which made the whole experience much more enjoyable. Both the horses and mountain bikes were great and I would definitely advise horse riding, if you are an experienced horse rider. Though some of our party had some health issues, these were sorted out immediately and the trek continued for the others. A fantastic, professional and very friendly company.

          An Experience of the Lifetime with the Best Trekking Service and Guide
          What an absolutely amazing experience in the Mustang Valley with Nepal Mountain Trekkers on a family trip with my two daughters, sister and 67-year-old mother. We have to thank Ramesh, Sumar , and especially, our guide Min, for putting together a fantastic trip that while never easy was was everything we could have hoped for and more. If anyone is planning a trip to Nepal, stop looking for other guide services. You have found the perfect one. From the moment I connected on email, Ramesh was clear with everything, listened to our special requests and made adjustments as necessary. If he is not booked up already, request Min for your guide. Beyond his first-rate guide skills, Min is a beautiful human being that made everyone comfortable and happy on the trip. Thank you again Nepal Mountain Trekkers!!!

          Best trekking experience ever!
          My family and I had the most amazing time exploring the Upper Mustang Valley with this trekking company. Everything was planned out perfectly, with backup plans for when things inevitably went awry. We truly could not have asked for a better experience. Upon arrival to Hotel Green Horizon, we were greeted with open arms. There was never a moment where we doubted the quality of care we had been put under. During our stay at each end in this hotel, we enjoyed lovely meals (certainly a step above your typical hotel cuisine - my family members were all fans of the momos) and lovely accommodations in this quiet city oasis. The rooms were clean and air conditioned, and the showers were hot. We had access to plenty of seating outdoors, which we took full advantage of. When it came to flights, taxi services, jeep rides, and any other transportation that was needed, everything was taken care of. We always arrived where we needed to be in a timely manner, there was never any stress or rushing involved. When our flight from Jomson to Pokhara was cancelled at the end of our trek, we had a jeep almost immediately lined up for us. During the trek itself, we were provided with the most incredible guide in the world, Min. If you ever book with this company, be sure to request Min specifically! He made our trek an absolute blast. We truly could not have done any of it without him. Thank you Nepal Mountain Trekkers!

          Nepalk Mountain Trekkers - bespoke trek Muktinath to Pokhara
          Truly amazing trek based on my previous experience to many little visited areas & with minimal use of roads . Our guide TB was clearly very experienced, & very accommodating of our bespoke itinerary & slower pace for two mature ladies. He was very tolerant & seemed to enjoy aspects of our trek which took us to many areas with spectacular scenery & few or no tourists. TB was so versatile that he "borrowed" kitchens & supplies in villages to whip up lunch when we found ourselves in places with no lodges. He also understood that we were keen to stay in lodges with optimum views. Our 2 porters Sunil & Sudip were a real bonus - both spoke English & were unfailingly helpful & good natured. I have done many Nepali treks & it is unusual to find such a good crew. Ramesh was always prompt in answering my questions whilst planning the trek from London.

          The agency is the best! They helped me since I arrived in Nepal, providing support on flights and lodging. The guide in trek was pretty nice. The experience was great and I really recommend them.

          Shiva, best of all guides
          We had a great experience with Shiva. He knew everyone at every Guest House, he gave us the best rooms in each of them, he explained everything we asked him about… If I go back, I would ask for him to be my guide 100%!

        Discovery world trekking was absolutely fabulous. Life saving!
        I got acute mountain altitude sickness half way on this trek!

        Our guide, Suresh Guranag immediately called the company owner, Paul Gurang, and they organized and prepaid a helicopter rescue for me in the mountains to Kathmandu Hospital.

        Paul, owner of Discovery World Trekking, met me at the hospital, made sure I was okay, and talked to the hospital doctors on my behalf.
        Suresh piggybacked me down to the helipad. Porter, Robbie also piggybacked me.Porter, Proson, helped and cared for the rest of my group. Outstanding service and care from Discovery World Trekking!!
        I will always use this company for trekking!!
