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!

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.

Excellent tour
An excellent tour with very good to excellent accommodation, at a nice pace, plenty to see but not rushed, and we got to see parts of the real India. Chhatra Sagar was particularly good. In Kashmir everybody was doing their best for us and I felt safe at all times.

Finest mountain views
We had a view of the whole length of the Zemu Glacier which is one of the finest mountain views I have ever seen. Once again I run out of superlatives in describing the crew. Everyone of the 17 man crew were excellent.

Highly recommend
I would highly recommend a Srinigar houseboat stay to anyone - the boats are floating works of art with exquisite wood carving throughout the interior.
Firstly we really enjoyed the holiday and thought that the pre-trip advice and organisation was excellent. Accommodation was excellent, with the Chhatra Sagar visit the definite highlight. The visit to Udaipur coupled with the trip on the lake was first-rate. The houseboat stay in Kashmir and additional extra visit with the guide up to the mountains was memorable. Overall the food during the whole of the visit was excellent.

Faultless accommodation
What we enjoyed was the selection of the places we visited, and the accommodation could not be faulted both in terms of quality but also in the way they fitted so well together. The luxury tents was rated 'tops' by us all; it was hospitality of the kindest and most sensitive.
From start to finish everything was superb. All hotels were varied and of a high standard; food arrangements excellent and walking was in wonderful woodland areas as well as through villages off-the-beaten-track. Delhi, Agra, Jaipur extension was extremely well-organised. All staff helpful & informative and top quality hotels. What really made this special for us was the driver - Bachan Singh who many times went out of his way to give us extra time and additional surprising temples etc. The group of eight like-minded people was just right. Thank you again for a wonderful adventure.
Thank you to all the wonderful people, seen and unseen, who have contributed to this unique experience. We will never forget this week. May MV Mahabaahu achieve the recognition and success it so richly deserves.

Rewarding
The trip was rewarding in all aspects - leader, group and the opportunity to camp in remote areas not otherwise accessible to individual travellers.

Great service
This was my 6th trip, so MK must be doing something right. The liaison with the office is very efficient and prompt.
