In March 2024 I had a great 18 days tour with Mount Adventure Holidays to Kanchenjunga Base Camps. Everything was prepareded and executed highly professional by Pasang Sherpa and his team. I had a few questions before the trip, emails were answered immediately. I was expected at the airport and got a great "Katmandu Highlights Tour" the first day by Pasang Sherpa. The tour itself was led by "Smiling" Sherpa very professional, sensitive and with passion.It was a very, very remote tour beginning of March, something sor people who do not need any comfort but like this very own character of the tour. I plan definitively my next tour with Mount Adventure Holidays for 2025.Show more

An amazing trek. Pasang and Mount Adventure Holidays provided the trip of a lifetime A a solo traveller booking directly with a local tour operator I was a little apprehensive, but I needn't gave been. Pasang met me at the airport and after that everything just worked. Mount Adventure Holidays took care of everything and kept a close watch on things like food and safe water. Pasang's knowledge of the mountains and the tracks is second to none, and he wasza fantastic host for the couple of days we spent in cities sightseeing I quickly learned to trust his advice and let him do his job as a guide. The trek itself was astonishingly beautiful. Much more so even then I had expected. I would not hesitate to recommend Pasang and Mount Adventure Holidays unreservedly.Show more

I recently trekked in the Kachenjunga region of Nepal, near Sikkim, with the owner and operator, Pasang Sherpa. Along with his assistant guide and two porters we set out on a 12 day trek through some of the most remote parts of the world I have ever seen. Pasang was excellent. Not only was he very professional, but personable as well. I left Nepal feeling like I had truly gained a friend. Pasang’s connection to the culture and heritage of the Sherpa and Tibetan people make for a very special experience. From trying wild honey to staying and eating with a herder family, we always felt very immersed in our surroundings. The service was paramount and I definitely recommend a trip with Mountain Adventure for your next trek, especially in the Kachenjunga region.Show more

This was a slightly shorter version of the full circuit, 2 full weeks instead of 3. Pasang Sherpa and his wonderful team gave us an outstanding support all the way through the 180 km trek. They were not only very well organized, but also able to adjust and find solutions to all the challenges we had to face along the circuit. We had a wonderful time together.... and enjoyed the happiness and the positive spirit of the group all the way through. Great job! Show more
