Moving and spectacular
Reaching the mountains near Goecha La was deeply moving and spectacular - such fresh evidence of glacial movement and stunning morning scenes. The trekking staff were dependable - courteous, attentive and pleasant and the flights and drives all ran to plan.

Great trekking team
The trekking team were absolutely great, the food on the trek was very good, varied and the team were really helpful in every respect, with Pemba taking great care to manage expectations. Overall we enjoyed the walking and the mountain experience as we are well used to winter walking conditions.

Impressed
This is the third time we have travelled with MK and on each occasion we have been particularly impressed by the quality of the guides and local staff. Also impressed by the efficiency of MK documentation, organisation and appreciate personal contact with staff.

Wonderful Himalayan views
The quality of the leader and assistant leaders on this trip greatly enhanced our enjoyment. They were all well informed as well as concerned for our welfare, working very well together. The trip provided ALL we expected including wonderful views of the Himalayas!

Thoroughly enjoyable
The local staff were excellent; the trek and sightseeing was well organised. I thoroughly enjoyed the holiday.
Trekking beneath the legendary peaks of the Karakoram was an incredible experience, and one I will never forget.

Dramatic mountain scenery
The generally warm, dry conditions and the long days of sunshine are powerful client recruiting factors, along with perhaps the world's most dramatic ice-snow-rock mountain scenery ... this is the true 'Roof of the World' as Tibet or Nepal have nothing this extensive and this high. Northern Pakistan is a world apart culturally, religiously and security-wise from the Afghan/Pakistan border areas. A great trek!
The itinerary was fabulous and it really gave us a fantastic idea of life in Sri Lanka. Our guide was really enthusiastic and we could not fault his care of us for the whole trip. By including all meals, the cost was kept down and we were impressed that the trip went ahead, even with just two of us.
Everything was very well organised and ran smoothly. Hotels were of a very good standard throughout, as was the food. The itinerary was very comprehensive, we really felt we had a full and varied experience of life in Sri Lanka, its history, culture and way of life.
I am just back from yet another superb trip with MK. We had a fabulous time. The itinerary was rich and diverse providing us with a very broad experience of a large amount of the country without feeling rushed or pressurisedÉ A great trip all round.
This was an excellent trip. The itinerary was well organised and I think contained all the most interesting places in Sri Lanka. It had a combination of interesting historical temples, good walking, coastal scenery and wildlife. The hotels and meals were of a consistently high standard. Everything was well organised.
The standard of food and hotels was very good throughout. The size of the group was just right. The guide, driver, and assistant were always helpful and attentive. All round good experience.

Thank you very much!
Our feeling is that the ethos of your business is remarkably genuine, and you have attracted like-minded people to help you. Thank you very much! A unique holiday and better than anyone else could offer in Sri Lanka!

Beautiful and welcoming country
Sri Lanka is such a beautiful and welcoming country, it has such a variety of places to visit from cool tea plantations, stunning beaches, fascinating temples, mountains, a plethora of wildlife and some excellent hotels. And did I mention the food? It is almost worth going there for that alone! Having just returned from the country I cannot recommend it highly enough.
