A fabulous trip to k2 in Pakistan Perfect weather great group and flawless execution by the mountain company

Great organization and wonderful local support and staff Every detail was accounted for and personal accommodations were handled without any hesitation

I totally enjoyed my trip to K2 Base Camp. The Mountain Company with on-site support from Hunza Guides in Pakistan make sure the trip went without a hitch from booking until our return to Islamabad for the return home. Our western leader, Robert, was extremely helpful and well-liked by all the trekkers. Our Pakistani guides were also very helpful and friendly. Even the weather cooperated to have magnificent views of K2, Broad Peak, Trango Towers and neighboring peaks. I won’t hesitate to book another trip with Mountain Company in the near future.

An amazing Trek in a stunningly beautiful remote location. The isolation and scale of the Karakoram range are very humbling and make you feel very privileged to be there and really appreciative of the Universe we live in

The mountain company is very organized feel very well looked after from the minute I picked up the phone to Roland to enquire about the trip

A 3 week trek in the Gilgit Baltistan Region of Pakistan to Concordia and K2 Base Camp, reaching an altitude of c. 5200m. This was a ‘self sufficient ‘ 3 week trek with no settlements , using tents and camp sites , with all equipment and food portered. The arduous trek included c. 75 miles walking/camping on glaciers. The trip went well, largely due to the excellent pre trek planning, trek leadership, in country organisation and management by The Mountain Company. Their attention to detail , particularly in respect of safety and well being was exemplary. The trek was the experience of a life time!

The Mountain Company were an excellent trekking tour company, differentiatied by their attention to detail and providing an experienced UK trek leader, ably supported by the leading in country operator ( Hunza Guides)

Great experience, well managed by the Mountain Company both in the UK and in Pakistan. The Guides and support staff were very amazing.

The Mountain Company is an experienced and knowledgeable operator, who are very well managed. The information and guidance prior to our departure was very good and ensured everyone was well prepared for the trek. The Mountain Company's Pakistan based support staff and guides were amazing, very helpful and knowledgeable of the local area, often going out of their way to meet our needs. The food whilst very nutritional, could be improved upon, with a bit more variety for lunches and evening meals. All in all an amazing experience, in a country not known for tourism, we felt safe and well looked after, I would highly recommend the Mountain Company.

A 220 kms return walk up the Baltoro Glacier to Concordia then Broad Peak Base Camp, lastly it was on to the base of K2. A challenging hike that was constantly rewarded with stunning rock and ice scenery akin to being in a different world. You won't see anything like this anywhere in this World.

The Mountain Company: A UK based company with excellent and very trust worthy locally based staff in Pakistan.

A challenging 18 day trek from Askole to Concordia and K2 Base Camp with a 5 day walk out back down the Baltoro Glacier. A completely self sufficient and remote camping trek that involves c. 10 days of glacier walking. The itinerary takes c 9 days to reach Concordia but it is worth the effort; the views with good weather are simply astounding with 21 7000m peaks within a 360 panorama with the unparalleled K2 standing alone at the head of the Godwin Austen Glacier. The Mountain Company and their local operator worked extremely hard to ensure the trip ran smoothly and their detailed and experienced approach worked well, in particular, having a Mountain Company UK leader working with the local operator.

The Mountain Company have a very detailed and methodical approach that ensures everything is well planned. The logistics on arrival in Pakistan, flights to Skardu, jeeps to Askole and the return journey went without problem. Their relationship with the local operator was excellent. Their approach to safety was the best I’ve seen with satellite phones, GPS plotter and an extremely comprehensive medical kit + Gammow Bag ( for emergency AMS ). I’d highly recommend The Mountain Company for future treks.

The Mountain Company organised our amazing Trek to K2 Base Camp, Pakistan. The trek is tough over glacial moraine but the spectacular scenery made every step worthwhile. Travelling in Pakistan is remarkably easy and felt quite safe.

Both the Western Leader (Jo) and the local leader (Zahid) were exceptional with a strong focus on quality and safety ..... and having great time! They were well supported by amazing local men. The Mountain Company is the most organised trekking company I have been with. Pre-trek communication is excellent, all questions are answered promptly, service and facilities during the trek are exemplary and safety is a high priority including satellite phones, comprehensive medical kits, a Gamow bag, clear leadership and good support from the UK when out on the trek. The ability of the family at home to track our trek was also really positive.
