My boyfriend and i decided to do a short trek in Nepal which would be our first trek ever. We found Mountain Mart because it already had so many good reviews, and we can only agree with them because we had the best time ever! It all started when we met our guide Ram Bhandari who was really a gift from heaven for us! When we first came to the office we got a clear explanation of how the trip would be, and we were totally reassured with his perfect planning for our short trek. The nature and the hikes were beautiful and we can only recommend it to everybody who wants to discover the mountains and jungle of Nepal in a short period of time. The accommodations were also always the best, because Ram found and gave us every day again the best of the best! He asked every time out feedback and what we would like, and he realized everything for our needs. The fact that he speaks good English helped a lot to make this as agreeable as possible for us. He was really 24/7 available, and even before and after he arranged a lot to help. During the walks we also learned a lot about the Nepalese culture as he taught us many interesting things and was always open for discussion. A true recommander!We are from Indonesia (Batam & Jakarta). It was a wonderful experience which has an amazing view to ABC, comfort lodge, delicious foods, helpful-kind & strong guide-porter that provided by mountain mart. They treat us like a Queen & King.

I joined Mountain Mart ABC 8-day trekking private tour. From the beginning to the end, it's a really fantastic experience. First, Dolakh answered every question before the trip starts. Then upon arrival, our guide Ram Bhandari picked us up at the airport. Everything was smooth. On the mountain, Ran set up everything every day. We don't need to worry about anything. Almost location during the trek, we got great hotels. Ram also managed to provide hot shower every day (which is very important to me). Every night after dinner, Ram also provided great fresh fruit. Throughout the trip, Ram took care of my physiological and psychological health. Our porter, Delip is also great throughout the trek. He's strong to carry to our heavy backpacks. And also helped Ram to take care of everything. I'm so lucky to have joined MMT tour and got Ram and Delip. If I'm coming back to Nepal, I'll definitely join MMT tour again and trek with Ram and Delip :)
