"fantastic Everest Base Camp trek"

Thanks to The Mountain Company for all the expertise, insights and advice that made a trek to Everest Base Camp an unforgettable, amazing, successful experience! Their attention to detail, well-planned itinerary, safety protocols, lodging, meals, selection of a superb guide, etc. made for a superb first visit to Nepal and introduction to trekking.

"Great trek to K2 Base Camp/Gondogoro La with The Mountain Company"

A great trip to Pakistan with The Mountain Company. The support was excellent throughout, delivering what was promised and I would certainly travel with them again.

"Very happy trekking customer"

I have been trekking in the Himalayan region since 2001 and since 2008 have been on 9 treks run by this company. The treks are thoroughly researched and recce'd and the pre trek support and service on all their trips is exceptional. The trekking leaders are highly qualified and experienced. The guides and crew are knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. And Roland Hunter (who runs the company) looks after them - in the aftermath of the terrible 2015 earthquake in Langtang and during COVID the company has continued to support and care for its Nepali crew with a hardship fund on the gofundme web site.

The combination of Roland's dilligence, talent with logistics and deep understanding of the Himalayan region make all the treks his company runs a thoroughly enjoyable experience. This is augmented by the personal touch that Roland brings to all the treks - Mountain Company is a small enterprise, but in the many years that Roland has spent in the Himalayan area he has got to know all the best people. This is reflected in all the treks he runs.

"Gokyo 2018"

As first time 'trekkers', and at relatively short notice (about a month), we asked Roland Hunter of The Mountain Company, if he could organise a trip for us in November 2018. Because our aim was to visit our daughter who was working at high altitude rescue posts in Machermo and Gokyo, Nepal, we didn't fit into any of the scheduled trips already on offer at that time. Right from the start, Roland communicated well with us, and in putting together a bespoke trek for us, we felt he had taken into account our levels of fitness, age and experience, to make the whole trip very appropriate for our aims. The pre-trek communication and information was very comprehensive, not only in terms of essential kit needed, and the risks of altitude sickness, but also useful tips such as how to navigate Kathmandu immigration. It became clear on the trek that he chooses and treats his guides and porters well, since we witnessed several other incidences involving other trek companies, which didn't go so well. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, reassuring and kind, and we felt the whole time we were in good hands.
The attention to safety was extremely good, especially in relation to our wellbeing, with our oxygen saturation and heart rates monitored each evening, to detect any signs of altitude sickness, before we might become unwell. We remained well during the whole trip which is a testament to Roland's itinerary planning and our guide's attention to detail every day, making sure each day's walk was not overtaxing us. Although we were fully expecting the accommodation to be very basic, perhaps the only area which fell well below our expectations was the standard of cleanliness of the toilet facilities in the tea houses, and we put that down to our lack of experience on this type of trek. Overall we would wholeheartedly recommend Roland Hunter and The Mountain Company, as being a responsible trek company. The attention to detail and safety during our trek was outstanding, and made our trip extremely enjoyable and memorable.

"Great trek with great people"

Did a marvelous, well-planned, well-led trek into Everest Base Camp with The Mountain Company. Had some travel challenges getting to Kathmandu and they were very helpful sorting it all out. They were hyper-vigilant about trekker health and always on guard for signs of difficulty, and remarkably accommodating and helpful to all trekkers. A great experience thanks to their skilled team and expert planning.

"Everest Base Camp Trek"

We travelled with the Mountain Company back in October 2019 for our trek to EBC, the whole experience was amazing from initial enquiries with Roland from the Mountain Company to the end of our trip with an extended stay in Kathmandu. The trek itself was an amazing experience with the accommodation, our guide and porter throughout, planning and organisation of the trek, the scenery and of course the ultimate achievement of reaching EBC. Throughout the trek our health was checked daily with oxygen levels whilst at altitude which was very reassuring for us as we neared EBC. We would have no hesitation of booking another trip with The Mountain Company, their hospitality and knowledge is fantastic in every aspect.

"Fantastic Adventure. We used The Mountain Company to…"

We used The Mountain Company to organise our trip to Nepal in November 2019. We went for the Annapurna Luxury Lodge trek. We had looked on line at alternatives but TMC offered the trip/trek which fitted exactly what we wanted from trekking in Nepal. The organisation from start to finish was superb and every question/query we had was answered quickly and positively by Roland or by theirs representatives in Nepal. Going to Nepal for us was slightly daunting but because it ha d been so well organised it went as smoothly as one could have hoped. It turned out to be the most wonderful experience and over and above our expectations to the extent we would certainly return to Nepal. TMC were simply exceptional and made it the trip of a lifetime.

"Two trips with TMC"

I've been on a couple of trips with TMC (Manaslu Circuit/Tsum Valley in 2017 and Kanchenjunga Circuit in 2019) and honestly would not use anyone else. Excellent preparation, great attention paid to the details, and solid, experienced leadership. The trips were both very well managed and any issues were dealt with promptly and efficiently. Would not hesitate to use them again!

"Excellent Trekking Experience"

The Mountain Company is a very good travel company. I would highly recommend The Mountain Company. I have travelled with a few other companies however in my opinion The Mountain Company is far superior. Roland Hunter ensures that the participants experience excellent service and very safe adventures. Roland works very hard to make this happen. I would certainly travel with the Mountain Company again hopefully in the very near future.
