Mera Peak Expedition in Nepal Traveller Reviews

We joined a trek to Mera Peak in Nepal. The trek was for 18 days in the mountains including a summit attempt on Mera Peak, the highest non-technical trekking peak in Nepal. Unfortunately the weather precluded us reaching the summit but the group all had a wonderful time and were awe inspired by the views from our highest camp.

The Mountain Company is a highly professional company run by Roland Hunter- a mountaineer himself. From first contact an extremely personal service is offered with abundant information and advice from their informative website and on the phone. Arrangements in Kathmandu are made by a local agent who is also very personable and extremely efficient. The equipment provided on trek such as tents etc is of top quality and far surpasses that of most competing trekking companies, the porters and local crew are paid fairly and not exploited and are properly equipped and insured for high altitude trekking. Details which make all the difference in comfort and morale are taken seriously and the trek food is of high quality. This is the 4th time we have trekked with The Mountain Company as we consider the quality of their trekking arrangements to be superior to most of the industry. I am sure that we will travel with them again and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
