India is simply magical - the people and their beautiful hearts, the 'organized' chaos in the city streets, the mystical charm of the villages, the raw beauty of the desert, the graciousness extended to us literally everywhere we went and our excellent Guide all contributed to make it so. Anna
Mountain Travel Sobek consistently delivers high quality trips (just finished my 6th one) where the guides are friendly, patient and knowledgeable, the accommodations are comfortable, the food is delicious and local, and the daily adventures keep you on your toes. Every trip creates lifetime memories and I keep coming back for more because I have such a phenomenal time exploring new parts of the world.
“Mountain Travel Sobek offers a FANTASTIC trip to Patagonia! The coordinators, guides and overall support are stellar. We had a personal medical emergency and our guides were amazingly helpful and supportive. They also helped us to reunite with our group when we were ready, which was WONDERFUL!!!”
I have taken two hiking trips with MT Sobek (Morocco and Patagonia). I highly recommend this travel company. They deliver what is promised to the highest standard. They seek out the best possible locations, work with local, knowledgeable guides and everything is so well organized. Their staff in the US is excellent and as a traveler you are well prepared for every trip.
Our Kumano Kodo Walking Trip was well thought out, planned and executed. Our guide was knowledgeable and dedicated to make our trip special. Meals and accommodations were all excellent. A truly cultural submersion that my family will always remember.
I did the Ultimate Patagonia hiking trip in late March 2024. The trip was truly amazing: the structure and organization of the trip, the incredible trip leaders, the group I travelled with, the food and lodging and of course, Patagonia (!!), which is a truly special place. I'd highly recommend this to anyone fit enough and adaptable enough to enjoy it (especially the weather - we experienced it all!)
This trip is almost indescribable - I have traveled all over the world and worked with animals in many remote places but this trip by far exceeded those experiences. The beauty of the animals and the diverse ecosystem of Africa will never be forgotten. We were always comfortable and every need was met by the guides and driver. The amount of knowledge our lead guide possessed was beyond expectations- I learned so much! I would definitely travel with Sobek in the future.”
There are no words to convey how meaningful and spectacular this adventure was for me and my old college roommate. Hiking through Patagonia with my group lead by Ro (and his dependable supply of chocolate) was medicine for my soul. The pacing and timing of everything (food, bathroom breaks, and intensity of hikes) made participating stress free. The duration and intensity of our hiking schedule was well balanced with relaxation to provide a sense of accomplishment without becoming burdensome. By the third day, I had already started scheming of ways to return to the rainbows and rolling trails, carved mountains, teal lakes, fiery skies, thundering calving glaciers, and the grassy… or rocky… expanses in between. I’m ready for part 2.0! Clearly, I’ve been overwhelmed by this Patagonia experience. By supporting the excellent work my guides (Ro, Eduardo, and Lucho) and adventure coordinator (Erin) do everyday, MTSobek has set a new gold standard for all my future hiking adventures!
This is my third adventure with MTSobek! Each was a great experience while each was unique they all had awesome staff, guides, hotels, and food options! I’ll be using them more!!
Our trip to Patagonia was a dream! After meeting up with our travel group, we spent the next six days experiencing the incredible beauty of this unique part of the world. Cristian and Eduardo, our wonderful guides, pointed out wildlife, geological formations, guided us on breathtaking hikes, and taught us about Patagonian culture. They were knowledgeable, kind, patient, and comical! Best of all, we didn't have to worry about a thing. We had clean and comfortable transportation with our fantastic driver, Eduardo, spent our nights in luxurious hotels with amazing views, and ate fresh, incredible meals. We truly felt spoiled!
This was my first trip with MT Sobek and my first hiking trip of this kind. I really didn't know what to expect. The experience was wonderful! I did not have much difficulty with the hikes and was able to keep up. We were a small, very compatible group of various ages, backgrounds and abilities, from all over the country. Our guides were excellent and we loved them. We all had such fun together. The accommodations and meals were excellent. And the parks, oh my goodness, were so beautiful and different and interesting. Would I recommend this trip? Oh yes, indeed!
MTS is all about serving the client. The leaders are humble and very competent and qualified. Big Bend National Park is a gem. There were so many different aspects and hidden treasures in the park. We were learning new things everyday. Our group was great. It was fun meeting people from across our country.
We love going on trips with Mt. Sobek. In short, if it's a Mt. Sobek trip, we know it's going to exceed our expectations and be worth every penny. Their planning and guides make the whole experience easy. They choose excellent itineraries, great accommodations, and provide local guides, food, and experiences.... Each aspect of the trip is well thought out. It is SO much easier than organizing a trip on our own. We can enjoy the scenery and hiking without thinking about where we will stay, eat, etc. It's seamless. All we have to do is show up ready to go. We have already booked our next trip with Mt. Sobek -- to Iceland!! Can't wait to see what they have in store.
The most recent experience in reviewing our Patagonia trip was perfect. No issues noted.
Mt. Sobek has seasoned guides that will make your family travel seamless and worry free. Explore unique locations with guides that make a difference and are passionate about the regions they work and live in. Egypt was the trip of a lifetime my teens will never forget!
Our guide, Malcolm, was one of the best that we have ever had (and we travel a lot). He was kind, knowledgeable, flexible and an overall great person. We enjoyed the itinerary and were even able to add on hikes/extensions if time permitted. Our favorite day was our hike in Tongariro National Park. What an adventure!
One of my favorite MT Sobek trips to date. Incomparably beautiful landscapes and cultural sites. Fantastic guides. I personally really value guided trips on pilgrim routes. It is a remarkable experience to spend meaningful time walking with a sense of collaboration with others over distance and centuries. I had been looking forward to this trip for several years. I couldn't have known what to expect, but I knew it would be great and it was.
“Galapagos is a magical place. We have traveled there twice with Mt. Sobek. The guides are exceptional. The galaxy is comfortable. The food is delicious. You will not be disappointed.”
“Superior itineraries and guides are what define MTS trips for me—and make them worth the extra cost—and my Jordan Passage to Petra trip was no exception. Our guide, Nader, was invaluable in giving us an unusually close view of the country, its history, its people and cultures, its outdoor landscapes and recreation opportunities, and, as a bonus, insight into the region's current and historical political challenges. Definitely a "trip of a lifetime" -- even though I've been lucky enough to have more than one of those with MTS.”
Our Kumano Kodo trip was our third trip with MT. Sobek. The previous trips were Hiking Patagonia (2017) and Japan Nakasendo Trail in 2019. All have been excellent in every way—-the itinerary, the guides, the accommodations, food, and support. Our guides provided lots of historical and cultural information and arranged for some special experiences that were a nice suprise.
