"Absolutely amazing - holiday of a lifetime "
My husband and I trekked the Manaslu Circuit with The Mountain Company in April 2024, and can honestly say it was a once in a lifetime experience. The guide and porters were amazing, the scenery was phenomenal, and the trekking itself was not as challenging as I'd expected (which was a bonus!). The whole team took amazing care of us, and I would book again with The Mountain Company in a heartbeat. Roland (the owner) is always on hand to answer any questions or help organise anything extra, and you really feel like you are in a safe pair of hands to explore the beauty of the Himalayas!

"Fantastic Manaslu with Tsum Valley Trek"
I can highly recommend the Manaslu Circuit with Tsum Valley trek. This was my second visit to Nepal and I wanted to get up into the high Himalayas and a bit more off the beaten track. This trek did not disappoint.
If you can find the time adding the Tsum Valley to the Manaslu Circuit is a must. It is a wonderful hidden valley of ancient Buddhist monasteries and temples. For me that was the highlight. Despite the remoteness the tea houses were better than I had expected. The joy of the trek is the journey through a stunningly beautiful landscape at walking pace.
The Mountain Company is spectacularly efficiently run. It was reassuring to know that if anything did go wrong they would have it in hand.
The trek was an amazing adventure.

"An exceptional trekking company!"
The Mountain Company (TMC) are truly an exceptional company. Unlike many of the other trekking companies out there, TMC really does provide a personal service and the company MD Roland Hunter personally meets all trekkers for a pre-trek briefing prior to heading off into the mountains. There is a wealth of useful information on the website, with detailed trip itineraries, pre trip information, training guides, kit lists etc, and the thought and detail that has gone into these is clear. Roland is on hand to answer any questions, and whenever we did have a question we would always receive a detailed and comprehensive response within a matter of hours.
The organisation of the treks is second to none. We have done two teahouse treks and one camping trek, and each have run so smoothly. The crew we had with us on the camping trek were truly remarkable, with 14 people looking after our group of four: a guide, an assistant guide, a cook, three assistant cooks and 8 porters. Always smiling, always helpful and could not do enough for us.
Next time I plan to head to the Himalayas, I would not hesitate to give TMC a call to discuss options.

"MCT 2023"
Overall, an unforgettable adventure in this part of the himalayas for its natural beauty and people. The fantastic fellow trekkers and of course the reliable support of the ground crew have made this tough circuit trek achievable and worth every step, sweat and breath. I must say that this may not be for someone who dislikes long bumpy rides along narrow dirt roads on the way to and from the trailhead, but its all part of the experience to be in this remote part of the world. Meals were typical healthy Nepalese meal offerings in the lodges. Accommodation was good enough to have decent shelter to recover but get ready for an interesting night in a small settlement before the pass, experiencing it once is enough. Good choice of hotel in KTM. The TMC provided great support and communication throughout the duration of the trek, much appreciated the group debrief feedback with RH post the trek.

"Everest Base Camp Trek"
An enjoyable and beautiful first trek with the The Mountain Company. The itinerary, including greater time for acclimatisation and an interesting alternative higher route on the return, greatly helped in making the trek a real pleasure.
Roland was super helpful with advice and guidance before the trek and TMC's organisation, logistics, comms and local team were excellent throughout.
Would highly recommend and already planning future treks with TMC.

"Everest Base Camp Trek"
My trek to Everest Base Camp with The Mountain Company was a fantastic blend of challenge and enjoyment. The itinerary, slightly different from the usual, proved effective for acclimatization, making the journey physically demanding yet thoroughly enjoyable. The return journey, featuring an alternative route, added a unique dimension with its own set of challenges, showcasing the diverse landscapes of the Himalayas.
What set The Mountain Company apart was their excellent communication and seamless logistical support. From permits to accommodations, every detail was taken care of, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the trek without worrying about the logistics. Any concerns were promptly addressed by their attentive team, adding an extra layer of reassurance to the entire experience. In summary, The Mountain Company crafted an exceptional Everest Base Camp trek, combining a thoughtfully designed itinerary, strategic planning, and top-notch customer service for an unforgettable Himalayan adventure.

"Manaslu Circuit"
We did a trip around the Manaslu Circuit with the Mountain company in October-November 2023, and were very impressed by the level of organisation and attention to detail. Roland helped choose a good first trek, and the logistics on the ground were seamless. The local guides and porters hired by the company were great, and the whole experience was stress-free.
