Peaceful Trekking with stunning views

Just go with the flow. Trekking together with Ram (Owner of Mountain Eco Treks) you will leave Nepal as a friend. It is not only safe it's furthermore fun, full of joy, and an authentic Nepal experience. Hiking side by side along some of the remotest paths towards or in the Himalayas region can literally bring you back to peace and its ceasing of your mind when you enjoy a spectacular view at 4800m or even higher altitude, sharing local Dhal Bat (don't dare to taste the real Nepali version) incl. an Everest Beer and have some nice conversation about the past and the very present is an experience what I enjoying since more than 5 years now bc. of Ram. His more than 13 years of lasting guiding experience will lead you to many better places even on the beaten tracks due to the many connections he has with almost everyone in that area plus he with his company takes care of his country through sponsoring an orphanage in Kathmandu too.

Lovely companionship in Jomsom

Dev and I met in Jomsom in Kali Gandaki valley, when I was on my solo-trek there. We came to sit in a tiny restaurant/bar as it started to rain heavily outside. So we started chatting and enjoyed tea after tea. Dev is a really experienced guide and kind person. In the evening we met again for dinner together with his trekking group. It was such a funny, lovely evening together and the girls and guys kept on raving about how lucky they were with Dev as a guide, he couldn't have made any better choice :) I really enjoyed the sympathetic companionship that evening and valued the talk with Dev a lot who explained me about Nepal, its mountains and culture.

Annapurna Base Camp - AMAZING LIFETIME EXPERIENCE

I got in contact with Dev before leaving for Nepal. He made sure I was well welcomed in Nepal and organized my pick up arrival with his brother as he was trekking.

We then met in Bhaktapur while I was traveling and drank a nice tea together.

He organized my bus tickets to Pokhara from Kathmandu and return which was really helpful. He came to the bus station with me to make sure everything went well.

We then met in Pokhara for the trek. Dev was very flexible as I brought along with me two friends who joined the trek.
We had the best time with him, his son, and our porter Bijaya He really created a familial and safe space during the whole trek.
Singing, dancing, and eating well was our daily program along with long hours of walking of course.I would send all of my friends to Dev. He knows every corner of every tour.
Not to mention that he saved people during the trek when a snowstorm hit Deurali and further to ABC. He made sure we were fine all the time.
Thank you so much Dev.
Best regards,

BEST AGENCY if looking to hike Annapurna / Everest Base Camp / Langtang!!!

My friends and I hiked the Annapurna Base Camp trek and really enjoyed our experience. Our guide was super fun and knowledgeable, the logistics were perfectly planned by the agency (accommodation, transport, etc), the price was fair, and we always felt that we could go at our own pace without feeling rushed. I'm planning to come back again to do Everest Base Camp and will for sure reach out to this agency again.

Unforgettable experience!!

Traveling with Dev and his small team was like walking with friends. He is incredibly attentive and generous with his time and effort, and other hikers remarked how family-oriented our group felt. We felt safe the whole way, despite some adverse weather conditions. Sometimes in life, you get very lucky, and with Dev and his team, this was one of those moments. Highly recommended.

Annapurna Base Camp - wonderful!

My friends and I travelled to the Annapurna Base camp (I didn’t quite make it due to the altitude) and we had a wonderful time with Dev, his son and our porter Bijaya! I highly recommend Dev he created a really lovely atmosphere, we felt like we were with family, and we felt very comfortable and safe throughout the trek. Not to mention that during our trek the weather got quite scary as we got closer to ABC to the point where there was a snow storm and 8 people got caught two avalanches. Dev ended up saving these 8 people while also ensuring that we were safe! A very big thanks to Dev and his team!

Enjoying magnificent Annapurna Base camp trek!

We decided after a recommendation to do our first trekking in the Himalayas with Mountain Eco Treks & Expeditions. Dev was helping us with every kind of question planning therefore we got exactly what we were looking for: a unique experience in the Himalayas during a very nice organized trek.
Moreover, Dev was engaged concerning everything - organizing the lodges, TIMS-card, our well-being, and for moving safely in the Mountain too. His kind and funny character made the Himalayan experience even more pleasant for us - Additionally, our time with Dev allowed us to get to know more about people, culture, rituals, and flora, especially in the Mountain regions. Therefore I can definitely recommend Mountain Eco Treks & Expedition and I am looking forward to my next Trek in Nepal with Dev and his trekking agency.

unforgettable trip in the world of mountains!

In the end of September 2018 we (a group of 3 young women) decided to take the opportunity being in Nepal to do a trip to the Annapurna Basecamp in the heart of the Himalaya.
Well, what shall I say - it became one of the best things i've ever experienced in all my life. Not only that the nature is so stunningly beautiful and the atmosphere in the mountains itself is wonderful - but also that we had Dev as our guide made this week of trekking an immense gift to us. I can only highly recommend Dev! If you want, he explains everything about the Napli culture to you, he is always very polite and ready to help you.
thank you so much Dev for this wonderful week!

Dev Lama's POON HILL TREK aka

Dev was an amazing guide and has become a great friend. I was in Kathmandu when the Earthquakes of April 2015 occurred and he not only kept us safe, but he made the trip enjoyable even when it was a scary time. Along the way, he made sure we went to both touristy and local places, he found the most authentic food and drinks for us to try which were amazingly tasty, and to top it off he taught us traditional card games that we all still play with our families! He was also a great hiking guide, he maneuvered the schedule to avoid dangerous areas, but made sure we still saw amazing sights. He read our group quickly and new what we wanted to see, what rocks we wanted to climb, and would let us know whenever we were near something cool! He was also very considerate and would watch for our cue that we were tiring out to take breaks without us even having to ask. He is a very gentle and fun man, excited by the beauty the world has to offer and happy to share this with everyone he comes across! I have recommended him whole heartedly to my friends and family whenever they have gone to Nepal and I recommend him to you as well!

Unique Experience. You cannot get closer to Nepalese

We had an amazing time in Nepal. Ram, who started with us as a guide and ended as a friend, made everything possible and showed us cultural as well as natural highlights. We would never experience those feelings without a friend like him. Thanks again! We will definitely come back.
Regardless of whether you are looking for amazing hiking trips, safari, or cultural experiences Ram will make your wish come true.
Thanks Ram!

Poon Hill Trekking

When I was in Nepal I did a five day trekking-tour to the Poon Hill. The nice tour with amazing views was guided by Dev Lama. He is a well-trained guide with a lot of knowledge of the Nepali culture, the nepali flora and fauna and is always happy to share his knowledge with his guests. He is a good english speaker so it was not a problem to have nice conversations with him. 
Dev always tried to make us feel as comfortable as possible. In the evenings we sit together and had dinner, played cards or where just talking and enjoying our time. Even after our tour Dev took care after us. One of my friends became sick and Dev did not hesitate to help us finding a hospital. He also helped us talking to the doctor whos english was not so good.

If I have the possibility to visit Nepal again I will definitely contact Dev as my guide again!

Professional, fun, amazing

Ram and Neil led our group of 6 to Everest Base Camp and back safely and we had the time of our lives! Their knowledge of the area and ability to change plans as we needed made our trip smooth, fascinating and down right one of the best treks we have ever done. The guys were fun and joined in the laughs and were able to fix any issues swiftly along the way, including our lost luggage and cancelled flights!
I couldn't recommend this company more highly. You will be in good hands, I will be back for sure!

Himalayan adventure trek

I want to thank Ram of mountain eco tours for the extra care above and beyond that expected. Our backpacks for the everest base camp were delayed several days and we were 3 days into the trek before they arrived in kathmandu. Ram spent significant time coordinating their delivery to us while on the trek by utilizing porters to get our gear to us. In addition having a local guide with contacts enabled us to exit lukla by helicopter when many other travellers were stranded awaiting the cloud to clear. Some had been waiting several days and had missed their international flights but we were extracted the same day as our scheduled flight at minimal expense. Ram pays close attention to all trekkers and constantly monitors their health and well being. Both Ram and his porters are welcoming and they feel part of our extended trekking family. I have no hesitation in recomnending them to anyone who would like a safe, authentic Nepalese experience.

Great Experience

We had a great time in Nepal and amazing experience!! All the prep and communications were with Dev who is extremely knowledgeable, polite and has lot of patience to answer questions (and I trust me I had a lot of them!). We trekked the Everest Base Camp with Mr. Ram as a guide (Dev’s partner). He was very experienced, knew everyone along the way, he could probably do the trek with his eyes closed and we felt safe and welcome in the places we stayed on this trek. When I got sick, both him and our porter (Sushan) took good care of me.

In addition, after the trek, we visited both Dev’s and Mr. Ram’s families, had homemade Nepalis traditional food – it was delicious! Both kept in touch after the trek till this day.
If you want a no hassle, enjoyable, safe, and hospitable experience you cannot go past Dev and his team!! They are the best; I would highly recommend exploring Nepal and trekking with them. They can find a trek suitable for your needs. Amazing! Thanks for everything, Guys!!

Amazing guide to EBC on a 10 day Trek

In October 2017 we trekked to EBC with Ram as our guide. We met Ram the day before our trek, where he gave us all the information we required before we left for our Lukla flight at 5am the next morning. Ram ensured as a tour group we were organised to ensure we made the first flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. Attention to detail was paramount with Ram from the beginning, even advising us to sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views as we fly towards Lukla.

Once we landed in Lukla we took breakfast and as a group began to get to know each other, as for the next 10 days we became a team.
Ram consistently monitored our health throughout the trek to ensure we had the best experience along the journey, from testing spO2 levels to our diet and sleep, this assisted us all having a great trek. The continuous monitoring of us ensured symptoms of Altitude Sickness were dealt with swiftly and appropriately.
We could not have been any happier with Ram and his skills, we look forward to returning to Kathmandu to trek again with Ram in 2020 where we will complete a longer trek. Ram is amazing and highly regarded and anyone that treks with Ram will have an amazing and safe trek!!
Well done and thank you Ram!

Not much words needed to give Dev a review. We still look back at the absolute best guide we have ever had. Dev is a real expert, very gentle and adjusts his pace to the audience in front of him. We did a 5 day eco trekking which we really liked. Without Dev our Nepal experience would not have been such a succes.

Dev went out of his way to help!

I would not go back to Nepal without contacting this company and Dev first. I was only trekking to Namche Bazaar, yet having Dev along was a huge help. Not only did we not get lost, but we also arrived safely. He also went out of his way to help me in a situation that came up. He also took us to see Mt. Everest from the Everest View hotel, which was an out-of-the-way hike. I can honestly say, I would not have made it to Namche Bazaar, and I definitely would not have seen Mt. Everest if Dev had not been along. I would definitely recommend this company, but especially having Dev as your guide.

EBC trek

My trip to Nepal and the trek to Everest base camp were pretty spontaneous. I got invited to join while I was Indonesia. Not an offer I could say no to. Unfortunately the group I was invited to join ended up not really being my preferred cup of tea. There was a bit of drama. But, thanks to Our guide Dev and his nephew Probin, I was able to focus on how rad they were and how amazing the trek was. By the time we reached base camp and prepared to head back down, Dev and I were the only two left in the group. The others had to head down early due to the affects of altitude. Just a matter of luck really. That was when I really discovered the meaning of “jam jam”. We jam jammed from EBC to Lukla In just a few days! We probably could have placed in the EBC marathon that’s was taking place at the time. We wanted to get down to the others as soon as possible. Dev was a great guide and used solid judgement when it came to pushing limits. He has been trekking the Himalayas since a young kid. He’s very savvy to the whole environment and the tole it can take on an individual. When it comes to locals, and whether or not they actually care about you, he’s one of the good ones. If you find yourself in a predicament that you’re not sure how to solve, he’s the man to help you. He can make things happen if needed.

Thank you Dev and Probin! I hope to see you again soon!
