Well-paced
A superb combination/contrast in this two centre trip, really well-paced and giving time to explore both places well.

Off-the-beaten-path
Well-organised and good itineraries. In each destination there were days when we did not see other tourists.

Stunningly beautiful
I remember reading Thor Hyerdahls book Aku Aku when I was about 14 years old. I thought it was the best book I'd ever read and it left an indelible impression on me. Later I saw a re-run of Thor Hyerdahls Kon Tiki film and I promised myself that one day I would visit Easter Island. It did not disappoint, it is a stunningly beautiful island and the mystery still remains.

Excellent service
As always, the general organisation and ease with which the trip went off was excellent. Even the packed lunches were superb! We like being able to fully trust all the arrangements and recommendations that you make. We will book with you again very soon!

Excellent all-round
All went perfectly as planned. Galapagos extension was great and would be happy to recommend ... Trek, accommodation and guide all excellent. And my biggest worry, the airport transfers, all very efficient. And you even arranged perfect weather.

Good choice of activities
Everything about the cruise was fantastic. Each day presented a new experience with a variety of activities on offer. Both guides were very good at explaining what would be happening and their insight into the islands and wildlife made each trip a worthwhile experience.

Inspiring
What a fabulous trip! This holiday offers one of the most inspiring and varied experiences of any of Mountain KingdomsÕ many trips. One day you are climbing the slopes of a snow capped volcano in the high Andes or wandering the colonial streets of Quito and staying in great lodges and hotels, while the next you marvel at the stunning wildlife of the Galapagos Islands, have close encounters with unique birds such as the Blue Footed Booby, meet ancient tortoises and walk through enormous colonies of sea lions, with opportunities to swim with penguins or snorkel amongst exotic fish, all from the comfort of your own high quality yacht.
Small group, nice atmosphere, caring guide, in depth knowledge of the trip from staff at the MK office, easy to talk to, patient and accessible. A very enjoyable trip. I shall continue to recommend your company to my friends.
Liked-minded group. Our guide was helpful and cheerful. We liked the way we had our own porter for our kit and tent. We saw more animals/birds/plants than we ever thought we would. We appreciated that there were no extra costs.
Very well researched itineraries. Excellent trek leaders with good local knowledge. Reliable support infrastructure. Amazing choice of walks, hotels etc. A good balance between caring for the clients' needs, but also allowing them to enjoy the freedom of trekking.
Always excellent accommodation, particularly the Eco Domes. The main guide was magnificent and knowledgeable, with a wonderful smile. It was a superb holiday during which we had the chance to see some spectacular scenery in a lovely part of the world, in the company of a really wonderful guide, thank you.

No praise high enough
ItÕs difficult to find praise high enough for the Ausangate lodge trek. The scenery is incredibly varied and stunning.
