Mountain Monarch Trekking & Climbing

I had a fantastic time on the 21 day 3 passes + Island Peak trek in Everest region. Could not recommend mountain monarch more highly! My guides were Ngimanuru Sherpa and Dorjee Sherpa. They were very attentive, helpful and organized for the whole trip. They shared valuable insights into local culture and customs. Also, they allowed flexibility in the schedule so that if we wanted to add / remove any sections this was possible. I'm from England. It took around 10 days to acclimatize fully to the 5000m altitude. Mountain monarch allow good amount of time to acclimatize so that we can enjoy the mountain while challenging ourselves walking. Highly recommend 3 passes trek to avoid Everest Base camp swarms. Island peak, guided by Chetten Sherpa, was also fantastic. Chetten has summited IP over 200 times so I knew I was in safe hands. Thank you very much all at Mountain Monarch for giving me such an unforgettable experience!

Mingma was our guide for our recent trip to EBC. He was a true gentleman very knowledgeable and gave us lots of information along the trek. I am very grateful to have met Mingma he has given us an appreciation of Nepal. He kept us safe the whole trip. It was well organised from meals in the tea houses to our accommodation. Thank you Mountain Monarch and Mingma for an amazing adventure!

Mountain Monarch team are really A1. It was my third time with them, in 2010 for Everest Circuit Trek via Gokyo Lakes and Chola Pass, in 2015 for Island Peak Climbing, via Renjo La Pass, Gokyo Ri, Chola Pass and EBC, as well as a short trip to Chitwan. Last March-April 2024 for Langtang Gosaikunda Trek as well as a short week in Pokhara. They are amazing, knowledgeable, responsible, accountable, really nice and talented sherpas and porters not to forget the management. They are a real team. They take good care of you throughout your trip. When I or my wife needed special assistance, they were always there for you. It’s very comforting to book with them. And they are a local Nepalese company where people matters. If you look for an experience trekking-climbing team, I know I would not hesitate a second to go with my friends of Mountain Monarch. I recommend them at 100%. Thank you to our sherpas Roshan (2024), Dipen (2015), Ngima (2010), our last porter Passang, our driver Dipendra, our city guide Ram, and many more that I don’t remember their name, and for sure our manager Pradip and his team. They are the best! Rejean A.

They looked after all my family.

Mountain Monarch are incredible. They go above and beyond to make your trip amazing and get you to the top. We did Mera peak and from start to finish, Mountain Monarch were outstanding. Pradip (the owner) was brilliant. Quick and easy communication and nothing is a problem. Every aspect of the tour is excellently organised and Pradip sorted everything we needed without breaking a stride. They supply great equipment and each member of the team was excellent. Our main guide was Ngimanuru Sherpa and I can’t rate him highly enough. A great guy with a great sense of humour. His subtle but absolute command of every detail gives the most enjoyable and safe experience in getting to the summit. He has a real passion for what he does with great knowledge of the mountains, trails and terrain. Ngima constantly made sure our gear was in good condition, that our water was properly boiled day and night and did his absolute best to make sure we had a safe and unforgettable trip. . Whenever I go back I will be requesting if he can guide us. Pasang (our assistant guide) is someone you want on your team. If anything was to go wrong you know he would be the man you need. He was always making sure we were happy and comfortable. A brilliant guy. Mountain Monarch pride themselves on 1 Sherpa to 1 trekker. Other companies have 1 Sherpa to 2 trekkers loading the Sherpas up to 50 kilos so please make sure that is something you consider when booking any company in Nepal. Our Sherpas, Prabin, Buprendra and Ramesh were fantastic. Always smiling and friendly. Without these guys none of this would be possible. I wouldn’t want anyone else on any trek so thank you to Mountain Monarch for an incredible adventure. Overall if you are doing any hiking in Nepal, Mountain Monarch are the team you want. 5 stars
