Gentle Trekking Nakasendo Trail by JVH, 10 Nov 2023

An opportunity to experience Japan.

I had never thought of visiting Japan until Mountain Kingdoms sent out a newsletter. What a varied and interesting trip it turned out to be. It gave us a chance to experience so much - Tokyo and Nara, the trekking on the Nakasendo and Yamanobe Trails, sleeping and eating in traditional ryokan and minshuku, visiting beautiful temples and historic sites, travelling on the amazing rail system, and finally ending the trip in historic Kyoto.

I had never thought of visiting Japan until Mountain Kingdoms sent out a newsletter. What a varied and interesting trip it turned out to be. It gave us a chance to experience so much - Tokyo and Nara, the trekking on the Nakasendo and Yamanobe Trails, sleeping and eating in traditional ryokan and minshuku, visiting beautiful temples and historic sites, travelling on the amazing rail system, and finally ending the trip in historic Kyoto. I couldn't have had a better introduction to the country. The group was small and we had fun together. And the weather was perfect.

Rating for tour operator:

I had used Mountain Kingdoms for a previous 11 trips, mostly to the Himalayan region. Their trips had always been well organized, with a variety of activities and experiences. I was pleased to find it was extending its geographic area now to Japan, and signed up for its 'gentle trekking Nakasendo Trail, Japan'. It was a good choice, and an excellent trip, with a small group (something I have always appreciated with Mountain Kingdoms) - and would highly recommend both the company and its trips.;

Gentle Walking Bhutan by Rutland Ken, 29 Oct 2023
Holiday Rating:

Once in a lifetime - until we return!

A wonderful combination of easy(ish) walking amid stunning scenery and fascinating cultural insights. Everything we hoped for and more, thanks in no small measure to faultless local organization and our superb local guide for whom no praise can be too high.

This is the first time I use an U.K. tour operator (I am American) and did not have much expectation but MK staff were very responsive to my questions and booking was very smooth considering I did it during my travel in Africa.

Zanskar Dream Trek by Kiwi, 24 Sep 2023

Zanskar Dream Track

It was a challenging trekking trip in a remote part of India where you see few tourists. The terrain was hard, the view stunning. Which a great team of guides and crew we successfully completed the 31 day trip ( with 24 days on track). We rate it as one of best and hardest trekking experiences we have had.
