Booked a four day trek up to Annapurna base camp with very short notice and got both fantastic service and guide: Nabin! I was on a tight schedule and needed to get back to Kathmandu directly after the tour and they made sure everything went as smoothly as possible and managed all details of the trip with ease.

My guide,Ram, was truly exceptional — professional, kind, and approachable throughout the entire trek. The day I met Ram, his first words were: “I want you to speak to me sincerely from the heart, because I will do the same with you.”
And his eyes reflected true nobility. From the very first day, he understood my needs perfectly and adapted to my rhythm with constant dedication and care. He worked tirelessly to meet my expectations and made every day of the journey special, I will never forget the Sukuti house. He’s well connected up there in the mountains and that gives him an big edge over a tourist solo trecker. Beyond his professionalism, it was his human quality that made the experience stand out. I felt that I wasn’t just walking with a guide, but with a friend who shared this unforgettable adventure with me.
I would also like to thank Dolak, the owner of the company, for his kindness, patience, and attention — and even more for his honesty and efficiency in organizing a private trekking tour with a guide from one day to the next, without prior notice. He advised me at all times about my options and made everything easy.
An unforgettable experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.

This was my first time in Nepal and I had always wanted to hike ABC. I joined the MMT&E solo trip. My guide, Ram, was very professional and experienced. He gave me a lot of information on the mountain and arranged all the food and accommodation. I could then enjoy the trip with peace of mind.

Mum and I did the Mardi Himal trail, with a visit to the high view point. It was an incredible experience. This was our first trek, and we would highly recommend it. The view point, in particular, is truly unique and breathtaking - definitely worth the 4am start! Our guide, Ram Bhandari was very experienced and knowledgeable and lead us safely on our journey, planning our stops and booking lovely tea houses for us to rest overnight. Nothing was too much trouble to ask. Our porter Santosh was strong and reliable, and took very good care of our belongings. We would highly recommend both Ram and Santosh!

My daughter and I have just finished our 7day Mardi Himal trek with Mountain Mart. Our guide was Ram Bhandari, porter Santosh. We were both first timers. I am 64 yo so was a little concerned. Although I am fairly fit, Ram took care not to push us. He chose the best tea houses for us to stay in and gave good advice about what to and what not to eat, and how to handle the little bit of altitude sickness that we had. I cannot praise Ram highly enough for his experience, excellent advice and kind attention to our wellbeing throughout the trip. It made the trek so enjoyable. If you are thinking of doing this trek - go for it, just be sure to train to get your fitness up and in particular train for a lot of stairs (both up and down). Then treat yourself with a couple of days R&R in Pokhara and try some yoga at Mudra Yoga Studio to ease those tired muscles!
Thank you to Dolakh Thapa at Mountain Mart for arranging the trek and for allocating Ram as our guide and Santosh as our porter.

This was my 3rd trek with Mountain Mart Treks. I brought my 2 sons and their friend. The trip was well organised by Dolakh. Everest Boutique hotel in Kathmandu is superb. Our guide again was Nabin. He is the absolute best guide. He has become our mate and I wouldn't use any other guide. Our porters were Ram (aka Rambo 😀) and Nawa. They carried all our stuff through rain and mud no problems. We all had fun playing cards after a hard day walking. Can't wait for my next adventure with Mountain Mart Treks and Nabin.

The most incredible trek!! We saw sunset high above the clouds with Machhapuchhare so close we felt like we were hugging the snow-kissed mountains! Nabin, our guide, and Anil, our porter, were the best. Knowledgeable and so thoughtful! They took care of everything: our stay, our food, even hand cleaned our utensils (not necessary but this is the level of attentiveness they brought!) Really sweet guys, took us to the best photo vantage points and had the perfect mix of sharing information while giving us quiet space to soak it all up! We played Dutch Blitz with Nabin one night haha he is a fun sport, highly recommend!!!

Our trek in Nagarkot, Nepal was a truly enjoyable experience, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide Ram from Mountain Mart Treks and Expedition. The trek lasted around five hours and was completely worth it, offering beautiful scenery and a very pleasant pace.
Ram was very approachable, supportive, and professional throughout the journey. He took great care of me and my wife, guiding us every step of the way with patience and friendliness, which made the entire trek comfortable and stress-free.
He also gave us excellent recommendations on places to eat and helped us identify authentic mountaineering gear, which was extremely useful for our travels in Nepal. His local knowledge and genuine willingness to help really stood out.
We were so happy with his service that we are planning to have Ram as our guide again for our future trips to Pokhara. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and kind trekking guide in Nepal

We had an amazing trekking experience in Nagarkot Day Hiking, Nepal, thanks to our guide Ram from Mountain Mart Treks and Expedition. The trek was about 5 hours long and absolutely worth it from start to finish.
Ram is extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. He guided me and my wife throughout the entire trek in a very caring and relaxed manner, making us feel comfortable and safe at all times. His guiding skills are excellent, and he shared useful insights along the way.
What really stood out was his excellent advice on where to get great food and genuine mountaineering kits, which was incredibly helpful. He genuinely cares about travelers and goes the extra mile to ensure a great experience.
We were so pleased with Ram that we plan to use him again as our guide for our upcoming trips to Pokhara as well. I highly recommend Ram to anyone planning a trek in Nepal — you will be in very good hands.

This ABC trek in Nepal was truly unforgettable and perfectly completed! We successfully reached the summit, witnessed the magnificent snow-capped mountains and the stunning golden sunrise over the peaks. The scenery along the way was breathtaking and picturesque.
A special thank you to our guide for his thoughtful and professional service. He gave clear directions, arranged the pace reasonably, making the whole trek comfortable. He also helped us take photos and videos to capture all the wonderful moments. Moreover, he always paid close attention to our physical condition and safety, being careful and responsible.
With such a reliable guide, the journey was safe and enjoyable. It was a perfect and memorable trekking experience, highly recommended!

This was my 3rd trek with Mountain Mart. My daughter and I did Annapurna Circuit with Ram! I requested Ram as our guide as I know him from my previous trek. I cannot recommend Ram enough, he is the best guide. He was always there making sure we were capable, safe, comfortable, and having fun. Request Ram as your guide for the best mountain mart trekking experience!

Highly recommend asking for Ram Bhandari for the best mountain guide. He’ll handle all the trekking arrangements and make sure you have the best possible experience. I’ve been trekking in Nepal for 10 years, and Ram delivers the best experience.

Ram (the mountain guide) is the reason I am a returning costumer of Mountain Mart - he is the best!! His rapport on the mountain with the locals is top tier. He knows the best tea houses for accommodation and food, all the mountain knowledge and is a genuine and cool human being. I’ve trekked many times in Nepal and Ram is the only guide I keep coming back to. I contacted Mountain Mart through their WhatsApp number and was quoted $7,000 per person by Dolakh for a trek that is listed on their website for $1,595. As a repeat client this did not sit right with me. Be smart and firm on the pricing, I paid website pricing. Demand Ram Bhandari as your guide! Enjoy and make the best mountain memories.

Already during the booking phase we had a lot of help from Dolakh who was always at hand to answer any questions we had. Once booked the excellent help continued and even though one of our trek members had to cancel last minute due to back injury there were no problems with replanning the itinerary. Once we arrived in Kathmandu we met with Dolakh who set us up for the trip in a great way. We left for Pokhara the next day and met up with our guide Nabin and our two porters Ganesh and Sujan. They instantly made us feel welcome and we set of for our trek. Nabin was a fountain of knowledge and always happy to assist us with anything we needed. My 67-year old father who was with us on the trip got so well taken care of by the guys we couldn’t have asked fo more and that gave us the best start we could imagine. The trek itself was amazing, great weather, awesome views and the best team to take care of us. The last day up to ABC was hard work but it really did pay off when we got up early the next day to see the sunrise on the Annapurna range, it was a moment we will always remember.
I can’t imagine there is anyone better suited as a guide than Nabin with his wealth of knowledge and eagerness to help combined with a great sense of humour. Sujan was always glad to teach us new Nepalese card games and Ganesh was our own Nepalese Ninja - light footed climbing up mountains always with a smile on his face making sure we were all enjoying ourselves. We could not have been better taken care of and next time we go to Nepal we sure know who to book with and which guide and porters to ask for! 5 star all around!

The nine-day ABC (10/29-11/5/2018) tour ends with a quick and somewhat relentless schedule. Guide Makar led two pickers (Lupes and Dawa) who served us well, especially Makar, patient and knowledgeable about mountain views, tirelessly telling us the names of mountains, pointing maps, explaining our itinerary and making reasonable adjustments. Especially on my fourth day, I had a worsening cold, my strength dropped, and I had to fall behind at the end, while Makar waited patiently, with me around, encouraging me from time to time to help me overcome my difficulties, eight hours of hiking, nearly 15 kilometres, and climbing more than 1,000 metres), which was very difficult. Every time we arrive at the inn, Makar is sure to bring hot tea first, help with ordering and arranging accommodation, all in great detail and with care. We're arriving at ABC tomorrow and it's an experience of a lifetime! Makar is highly recommended as your guide!

I and my friend (2girls) joined Mountain Mart 8 Days ABC Trek from 4 Nov to 11 Nov. This is a memorable trip because it is NOT too easy for me - Use 5 days to up ABC and use 2 Days down. Luckily , our guide (Ganesh) and porter are excellent. Thus, I do it! They well prepared breakfast, lunch , dinner, fruits and snack for us. In these 8 days, our guide and porter really take care us very well. I highly recommend Mountain Mart. Now, thinking whether will go EBC in next years
我和我的朋友（2girls）從11月4日到11月11日加入了Mountain Mart 8 Days ABC Trek。這是一次難忘的旅行，因為它對我來說並不太容易 - 使用5天來上ABC並使用2天下山。幸運的是，我們的導遊（Ganesh）和Porter非常出色。因此，我做到了！他們為我們準備了早餐，午餐，晚餐，水果和小吃。在這8天裡，我們的導遊和Porter真的非常關心我們。我強烈推薦Mountain Mart。

Found Mountain Mart through this tripadvisor forum and I must say the reviews were super helpful, the actual experience was in fact far better than we expected! We had a fantastic time with our guide Bishal and porters mongol + sheetal. The three of them took super good care of us, always trying to arrange the best accommodation in the tea houses and making sure we ate well (daily snacks on the trek, biscuits for tea when we finished, an amazing large fruit platter after lunch and dinner - we were so pampered!). Every night, Bishal would brief us through for the next day, and record our pulse/oxygen levels to ensure we are in good condition. He's so sweet and patient with us and we really love how earnest he was! It was our first time trekking and so we went a bit slower, taking lots of photos along the way too. He wouldn't rush us and would patiently go with our pace while ensuring we're still on track. 2 of my friends had a bit of headache at base camp, and he helped to fill our hot water and gave them garlic soup to help ease the aches. Even though my friend missed the sunrise views because she was unwell, he made sure she didn't come all the way up for nothing and quickly brought her for a quick walk to check out the ABC views before we left. That was quite thoughtful. On the route back, he offered to help with her daypack so she can ascend the steep steps at a more comfortable pace. Bishal may be more reserved at first but we really enjoyed our conversations with him, especially when you ask about his hometown and personal experiences. Would love to have him as our guide again if we come back next time! Also Dolakh the managing director is very welcoming. We met him at the office before the trek and he gave us a thorough briefing. He's also super responsive via Whatsapp and would try his best to answer any of your questions before the trip began. All in all, Mountain Mart is a great agency and I would highly recommend them!

Myself and two of my other friends are so happy/satisfied with the services given by Mountain Mart Treks & Expedition. All thanks to Mr Dolakh for making a smooth process/booking for three of us for this trip. Our guide, Mr Tilakh a.k.a mamanla and two of our porters Mr Rajoo a.k.a shy/ express guy and Mr Rupi a.k.a boss have been a great brother/friends to all of us throughout the trip. All three of them have always been making sure of our safety and taking good care of us. We really appreciate it alot and always communicate with us. Mr Tilakh was a super good guide to us, he’s very knowledgeable and a funny guide when he communicate with us. Mr Rajoo have always sang nepali love songs during the whole trip. Overall we are very satisfied for the experience given by MMT. MMT is totally recommended for those coming to Nepal for any activities.

I enjoyed my trek to ABC with mountain mart trek guide, Thilak, and porter Raju and Rupi. Thilak is an experienced guide and has vast knowledge on the mountains in Nepal. Thilak, Raju and Rupi were very accommodating and made my friends and I feel welcome. We soon bonded and felt like family during the course of 9 days. I would recommend engaging mountain mart for their services. You would not be disappointed. =D I would rate them more than 5 stars if I could.

We are 2 people and did a 7-day trek: Poon Hill + ABC (Annapurna Base Camp), with 9 full days in Nepal in total (1 day Kathmandu-Pokhara, 7 days trekking, 1 day Pokhara-Kathmandu).
We liked the itinerary; ABC is a highlight. Difficulty: medium, some days are long.
We recommend having a guide and a porter, it makes everything easier (especially if you are short on time).
Mountain Mart Trek & Expedition was great (especially our guide Nabin). Good sleeping bags and trekking poles were provided.
Thank you for everything!

We originally planned to for EBC but could not proceed as the Lukla airport was closed for several days.
After several attempts, we decided to go to ABC. Dolakh was swift and accommodating of the change request. He also ensured all logistics for the EBC attempts and ABC trip were arranged properly.
Very special call out to our trek guide, Makar Tamang. He was courteous, knowledgeable, very helpful, and became a good friend along the trek. Even our porter, Roopesh, became close and a friend to us by the end of the trip. This experience has indeed become more special and logistically seamless because of them.
Thanks for all at Mountain Mark for a great ABC experience. Looking forward to EBC in the future!

We did a 9-day ABC trek thru Mountain Mart. Mr Dolakh was extremely experience n gave us good info abt the trek. Our guide, Raju, was juz magnificent. He was v experience, knowledgeable n organised our trek v well. He made sure tat our lodging n food was good n we r comfortable thru-out the trek. He even ensured tat we r able to get hot showers daily. Most impt, he ensured everyone of us is safe thru-out. I was the slowest in the group n he accompanied me all the way. I left my power bank at one of the guest house and he went back to collect for me. The to/fro to collect the power bank took 1.5 hrs. The porters, Rutdra n Prakas were also v hard working n courteous. I definitely put a 5-star service for Raju’s performance n leadership. A truly wonderful guide to have. He also have good knowledge abt many subjects n I learned much abt Nepal thru him. Highly recommend to use Mountain Mart n Raju n team as guide n porters for treks.

9 day trek inclusive of Poon Hill and ABC for 3 Pax in their 50s. Pre trip communication was excellent with responsive replys from MMT’s Dolakh ranging from potable water to what to expect on the trek. The assigned guide Raju was thoroughly professional and provided direction and leadership to cheerful and hardworking porters Rudra and Prakash. Guide Raju organised rest breaks and lunches, and ensured that the night rest accommodations were to the best standards. Hot water for bathing, clean sheets and comforters, and meals orders including delightful fruit platter were expediently provided for. Guide Raju provided after dinner briefings on what to expect on the trek the next day and ensured that we were clothed right, made sure we had sufficient potable water and even tested our blood oxygen levels, and enquired on our general health and well being. That all said, my trek with my fellow companions turned out to be excellent and a wonderful experience. Guide Raju, porters Rudra and Prakash shared their knowledge of the Annapurna mountains and local culture along the way. Guide Raju singing folk songs along the way was delightful and made the trekking distances much shorter. The teams smiles and encouragement constantly buoyed our spirits. Dolakh was also quick to arrange the flight back to Katmandu as the 6-8 hour bus ride might be too arduous after our trek. The MMT team was excellent and I highly recommend Guide Raju for his spirit, care and leadership of our cheerful and hardworking porters Rudra and Prakash. Thank you MMT Dolakh for making our Annapurna trekking experience a terrific lifetime experience and achievement. Cheers!

Excellent professional service from Mountain Mart owner, Dolakh and assigned team; guide Raju and porters Rudra and Prakash. Mountain Mart website was comprehensive and well designed with detailed Everyday itinerary. Dolakh was Super fast in addressing questions and concerns. On the trail, Raju managed our expectations really well, briefing us what to expect on the weather and trek the next day, and how to dress. More importantly, they monitored our health throughout the 10 days of trek making sure we did not hv signs of altitude sickness with the oxymeter, and checking with us on how we felt on the trek. Having a guide and 2 porters for the 3 of us was ideal. We had one to one company at our pace throughout the trek.
All in an excellent experience and I would hesitate to recommend Mountain Mart and their excellent guides and porters.
A Very Happy Customer,

It is hard to express in words what an amazing trip I had, breath taking scenery, deep soul searching and new friends. Our guide Makar really made the trip special and I hope to do another trip with him one day, anyone considering this trip I recommend using MMT as the porters are super hero’s who make you life so easy all you have time to do is enjoy yourself and laugh.
Massive thank you MMT and special thanks to Makar, bishal and pasang for making it the trip of a life time.
