MT Sobek Reviews 

Had a great trip hiking Kilimanjaro. The leadership of the guides was very helpful and made the trip a success

I have taken at least six trips with Mt. Travel Sobek and I rate them right at the top of all adventure travel companies. Their office staff are responsive to questions and trip details, the guides are fantastic, and overall, I'm totally satisfied with this company. I'll be traveling with them again!

Been on 2 separate expeditions with MTS both excellent in every manner. Once things get back to normal, I plan on booking several additional trips.

Took the MFS trip in July 2020 great crew and arrangements
Good far better than I expected
Highly recommended!

Trip was great our guide was the best very friendly and knowledgeable!
Somethings seemed a little pricey but overall we enjoyed it !!

We have traveled with MT Sobek for several decades and over a dozen trips -- on desert tracks, mountain paths and white water rivers -- from Kathmandu to Timbuktu. Each adventure was extraordinary. So many wonderful memories.

Andy, Mandela and the Sobek crew were phenomenal -- I wish I was with them now :)

China trip was amazing. Our guide, Chao, was amazing. I felt very comfortable in his hands. He was very friendly and knowledgeable.

The trip was fantastic. The guides were excellent. I traveled with MTS once. I take 3 active vacations/ year.

Please - find a way to stop penalizing solo travelers. Your supplements are steep. Other travel companies are minimizing the fee. As such, I have taken my business elsewhere.

BEST EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD. Service was amazing. The people were amazing. The experience felt authentic. I felt very taken care of.

Overall, my several experiences with MTS have been exceptional. The treks have all been well thought out and planned

***Additional comments: after my initial review was posted, the CEO reached out to me and we had a productive exchange. Based on his explanations, apology, and a frank conversation, I am willing to give MT Sobek another chance and will hope for the best. My rating has therefore gone from one star to three; hoping after my next experience with them that I can give them 5 stars!***
Our first trip w/ Mt Sobek was great, especially due to the guide, Laurent Langoisseur (in Chamonix, France). The second trip had some issues (also due to the guide) and we reported those upon our return. Mt Sobek handled that to our satisfaction, including giving us a partial credit for use on a future trip. That trip (a cruise in the Gulf of St Lawrence with One Ocean), our third and last ever with Mt Sobek, was filled with issues. We reported all of our concerns upon our return. A representative called me and I was able to explain fully what our issues were (as well as to highlight some folks who had provided great service). She said she would be taking the same trip soon and would contact me within a month for followup. I never heard another word from her or anyone at Mt Sobek, so our concerns were never addressed. Frankly, being repeat customers who gave requested feedback (including praise for those who gave great service), we were surprised that our opinions apparently were of no concern to your company. We have had very different experiences with both Wilderness Travel and Backroads, and will continue to travel with them and other providers who value our business.

Well organized , reliable , great guides, good food! .
Thoroughly enjoyed our trips to kayaking Glacier Bay, Alaska and to the Galapagos Islands.

MT Sobek provided a wonderful family trip for us during the summer of 2019.
We had booked with another company that went out of business without warning. Thankfully, our travel agent was able to rescue our long planned vacation by connecting us with the great folks at MT Sobek. They did a great job of taking over and making our trip a wonderful experience! We are very grateful for their gracious and professional way of doing things.

This was one of the most amazing trips I have taken with my family. It was so well planned out and every detail thought of. We would definitely use MT Sobek again.

My husband & I went on our first MTSobek trip in February 2020 and it was absolutely fabulous. Very well organized, knowledgeable and friendly guide (as were the additional local guides), great food (and wine!), perfect weather and the best “co-travelers” and first class accommodations.
Any questions or concerns before our trip were promptly answered. I highly recommend MTSobek

We had an amazing trip to Cape Town, Botswana and Zambia with MT Sobek. Our guides in Cape Town really knew their stuff, were so friendly and clearly they wanted us to have a great time. The two camps we stayed in the Okavango Delta were superb. The camps themselves were quite luxurious and the guides were incredibly smart and spoke excellent English. The guides could pick animals out of swaying grasses and rising dust....we saw and learned so much from them. Everyone at the camps wanted us to have a wonderful time; they went out of their way to make us happy. This was a trip of a lifetime.

Great service. Well thought out itineraries. Guides are excellent - knowledgeable and highly professional. I would definitely recommend MTS!

Enjoyed a wonderful visit to the Galapagos with my wife and nephew. well organized; informative; relaxing; invigorating experience.

seamless in every detail, staff cordial, meals excellent, Luis our coordinator/guide/instructor/leader, well versed a pleasure to have met him.

truly a stress free vacation in a unique wonder of nature.

Our trip to Tasmania with Mt Sobek was like stepping into another time. Original growth forests. Towns so small they were not much more than encampments. The natural world was on grand display from Cradle mountain to wildlife we had never before seen and which are not found anywhere else.

Our two guides led by Maddie were attentive to our every needed. The small group size enabled each of us to learn a lot about each other Nd the guides whose training and lif experiences were special. We had traveled many times before with Backroads and like them very much. My Sobek probed just as good Nd at a somewhat lower price point. We would definitely consider them again when we are blew to travel again.
