Visiting the north of the island while it still has few tourists was a privilege and greatly interesting and enjoyable. It was an authentic experience and to be encouraged for anyone who is not afraid to go off the beaten track a bit.
It was a great experience to cycle around the Kathmandu valley rim. To reach the fascinating and historical site of Bhaktapur and the hill resorts of Nagarkot and Namo Buddha on two wheels felt very satisfying. Having a support vehicle to accompany you on the entire journey gave you that added peace of mind. Cycling to Chitwan and spending the day there spotting wildlife in a dugout canoe and on foot was a particular highlight.
We would just like to say what an adventure we had in Ethiopia, the trip was everything we could have asked for and more. The itinerary was superb and the days we spent in the Simiens was an ideal break between the historical sites. Ethiopia is a fantastic countryÉ Once again, many thanks for all your help in planning our holiday and we hope to travel with Mountain Kingdoms again in the future.
Nyi Nyi was an exceptional guide. His ability to communicate and engage with everyone we met along the way made the holiday very special. Very much enjoyed the walking aspect of the holiday. It was good to exercise as well as see the wonderful sights. Walking and meeting village people gave us a better insight into Myanmar and its people.
The Bagan, Mandalay, Inle Lake itinerary couldn't fail to impress with the history, culture, scenery & amazing pagodas. Our guide was knowledgeable, enthusiastic & seemed to know everyone in Burma, so he would stop & chat & introduce us to all sorts of people along the way. He gave us an insight into the everyday life of the villagers that most tourists don't get the chance to experience.
What we enjoyed was the walking as well as sightseeing. An excellent and charismatic local guide who gave us a unique insight into the life of Myanmar's people.
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.
I have been lucky enough to ride my bike in many different countries around the world and I truly struggle to think of a country more suited to exploring by bike than Burma. The rolling landscape and the traffic free back roads and farming tracks all help to make this an amazing way to see this incredible country.
Mountain Kingdoms never fails to deliver! We are already thinking about where our next Mountain Kingdoms destination will be and would like thank you for making our holiday such a fantastic experience.
The whole trip is so well organised from start to end. I have full confidence using Mountain Kingdoms for any trips. They are very helpful and go out of their way to answer any queries or concerns. I have never encountered any difficulties.
