          A nice half day getaway
          Shanti is a very knowledgeable guide. She explained all the detail we need to know about the temple as well as answered all our questions. She even kind enough to tour us through the stores next to the temple. 我們的導遊非常專業,詳細的講解了我們前往的神廟的歷史及神話傳說,讓我們更好的理解了印度教神話。一路上遊客很少,這裡遠離加德滿都熱門旅遊景點。逛完神廟我們又去週邊的小市集採買紀念品,這是一個很不錯的半日遊。

          Beautiful Kathmandu sights and cultural insights in a relaxed private trip
          Beautiful Kathmandu sights and cultural insights in a relaxed private trip. Ananta is a very helpful and accommodating guide — not intuitive yet super helpful and insightful. Highlights for me were the cable car ride and Hindu temple. Highly recommend.

          Nagarkot Sunrise
          This is a very good experience. Early start but worth it. You do see Everest but it is way better n the distance. The mountains you can see are stunning, especially as we had amazing clear weather. The track afterwards was also very pleasant and not too onerous. Good shoes are a must even trainers.

          See places normal tourists don’t see but appreciate the helps you appreciate the culture.
          Madam was an amazing guide. Hiking through the rural parts of Nepal was very eye opening and something most tourists don’t do. Madan was great explaining rhe history of the area as well as the temples. Great price. Be easy to walk.

          Intimate Cultural Walk Experience
          A great, intimate way to see the different villages and how the Nepal people live. Met so many friendly ppl and animals through the walk. Although we were not able to see the sunrise views due to the fog, definitely a trip worth doing. Had great, buffet breakfast as well.

          Amazing trip
          We had an amazing trip, and a big part of that was thanks to our wonderful tour guide, Ananta. He took great care of everyone and managed every detail perfectly, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience. His knowledge, patience, and warm personality made the journey even more special. From start to finish, he was attentive to our needs and went above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic time. Highly recommend Ananta for anyone looking for a professional and caring tour guide!

          Had a lovely day out with our guide, Shishir. He was knowledgeable, friendly and happy to answer all questions I had about his hiking/trekking experiences and general facts about Nepal/Kathmandu. We had breakfast at a local cafe which was a nice experience after the sunrise. We were also lucky to have excellent weather and he was very informative about the mountains. He helped take many photos which he sent later on. I particularly liked that Shishir walked at a pace that I could keep up at and was happy to chat and explain about the villages that we passed - I'm sure it was extremely slow for him! An excellent tour and will definitely recommend him to other customers and my friends

          Nice mountain trip sunrise excursion
          Very nice mountain trip sunrise excursion. I am happy to see sunrise. My guide Pankaj is a professional guide. He is very knowledgeable and pointed to us himalayan peaks and detail introduced Changu Narayan Temple. The experience is very enjoyable.

          Amazing hike! Would highly recommend!
          Could not recommend this experience more as a solo female traveler! It was an amazing day. The experience starts with a seamless pickup and drive to the sunrise lookout point, where we saw the Himalayas peeking through. Then, there is the option for either a local breakfast or international breakfast. After that, you start the hike. The hike is about 3 miles downhill. After 3 miles you can either stop and meet the driver or continue on for 4 more miles. I opted to continue my hike! It ended at a beautiful temple. My guide Pankaj was very knowledgeable and shared a lot about Nepal with me. Would highly recommend!

        Roshan is a very thoughtful, knowledgeable and flexible guide. He has accommodated all of our requests and made our experience memorable. I would definitely book with Roshan again next time I'm back in Kathmandu for tours.
