Nepal Trekking with Local Guides – Planned by a Founder Who Started on the Trail

Tailor-made treks, peak climbs and tours in Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan since 2004

Welcome to Mountain Delights Treks and Expedition

We take pride in sustainable tourism

Mountain Delights Treks & Expedition is a government-licensed Nepal trekking company based in Thamel, Kathmandu. Ram Sapkota founded it in 2004 after years on the trails himself, and he still plans trips with a team of certified local guides – many of them from the valleys they lead you through.

We run treks to Everest Base Camp, the Annapurna Sanctuary and Circuit, Langtang, Manaslu and Mustang, climbs such as Island Peak and Mera Peak, and tours in Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan. Every itinerary is built around your dates, pace and group, whether you travel alone, as a family or with a school.

Our porters carry no more than 25–30 kg, are insured and are never sent down alone when sick; female guides are available on request; and part of what we earn funds the Tukee Nepal Society's schooling, health and farming projects in rural Dhading.

I had an amazing experience with this travel agency on our Panchpokhari trek. The entire trip was well organized, from transportation and accommodation to the trekking arrangements. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and always prioritized our safety and comfort.<br><br>The breathtaking views of Panchpokhari made the journey unforgettable, and the agency ensured everything went smoothly throughout the trek. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a hassle-free and memorable trekking experience in Nepal. Thank you for making our adventure so special!

My partner and I booked a 4-day Annapurna trek through Mountain Delight's Thamel office, and the whole experience was excellent. The booking process was personal and flexible. We got a detailed day-by-day itinerary upfront, there was no issue when our friends cancelled last minute, and the team arranged a same-day reschedule when I got sick on our first day in Pokhara.<br>The trek itself (Tikkedunga → Ulleri → Ghorepani → Poon Hill) was stunning, and our guide Geli Sherpa went above and beyond throughout. When we decided to change our return route on day 4, he reorganized the plan and all the bookings on the spot without missing a beat. Our porter Nabaraj Dhaunya was steady and reliable the whole way too.<br>Highly recommend Mountain Delight for trekking in the Annapurna region, and ask for Geli if you can.

We had a wonderful 5-day trek to Tilicho Lake with Mountain Delights. What impressed me most was how smoothly everything was arranged. Transportation, accommodation, and daily planning were all taken care of. It allowed us to simply enjoy the mountains and the experience.
Shrawan Rijal1 reviews
An unforgettable trek with breathtaking views throughout the journey. Our guide was patient, experienced, and always had a smile on his face. The final hike to Tilicho Lake was challenging but incredibly rewarding. I would happily travel with Mountain Delights again in the future.
Ujjawal Kumar Thakur2 reviews
Everything about this trek was fantastic. The booking process was easy, communication was clear, and the arrangements were professional from start to finish. The scenery around Tilicho Lake is hard to describe; it has to be seen in person. Definitely one of the best trekking experiences I’ve had.
Digvijay Simkhada8 reviews
Had an amazing time on the 5-day Tilicho Lake Trek with Mountain Delights Treks and Expedition. The whole trip was organized really well, and everything went according to plan. Tilicho Lake was even more beautiful than the photos. The mountains, landscapes, and villages along the trail made this trek unforgettable.

I am so grateful to Mountain Delights for giving me the most incredible experience on my trek to Everest Base Camp and Gokyo Lakes. My guide, Babu, was amazing, so kind and caring, making sure my safety was always prioritised. It was such a special couple of weeks, and wouldn't have been the same without Babu.
Couldn't recommend Mountain Delights more, Thank you so so much!

I completed the Three Passes Trek with the company and had the best experience of my life! Everyone was extremely professional. Ram was very attentive and welcoming, he made sure we had everything we needed before starting our trek. Our guide, Shiva, was very experienced, safe, and respectful. I plan to come back and climb one of the peaks with Mountain Delights because I liked this first experience with them so much. 10/10 all around!

Giving back · since 2005

It started with one village school.

Ram Sapkota grew up in Jyamrung, in the hills of Dhading. While he was still a guide, he used his own savings to keep children from his area in school. In 2005, a year after starting Mountain Delights, he founded the Tukee Nepal Society.

Swedish travellers he guided visited the village, saw children studying outdoors next to a crumbling school, and set up a support organisation in Sweden. Part of what Mountain Delights earns still goes to the society, and our medical and community treks take travellers there to see it.

Where it goes

  • Schooling for 200+ children every year
  • Village health camps
  • School and sanitation building, electrification
  • Women's empowerment and farming projects
