Exceptional experience - Madan was an excellent guide. Calm & knowledgeable, he provided fascinating background & history to the many exceptional temples, palaces & squares. We enjoyed his teaching so much that we booked with him again the following day. Highest recommendation.

A peaceful and insightful tour - Raj was a wonderful guide, he's a natural storyteller and told us a lot of information about the cultural and historical side of Nepal. He's really easy going, friendly and humble. We really appreciated his patience and that he gave us the space to really enjoy the tour. We walked ar our own peace and absorbed all the info in our rhythm, and we were really grateful for that. We definitely recommend his tour!

Worthwhile visit to Bhaktapur and Nagarkot - I made sure I didn't read up too much in advance so that everything that was revealed to me was new and exciting. It paid off and I didn't need to read anything. My guide Subash did a wonderful job telling me all about the sights, what I was seeing and where to take the good photos and even taking photos for me. He also answered all my questions, not just about Bhaktapur and Nagarkot but also about Nepal, the culture, people and all my weird questions about daily life and the recent events. He even recommended a suitable place for lunch and kept in mind my budget. He told me a lot about the historical aspects of everything we saw. I hope I can remember everything. Above all else, he let me go at my pace and was conscious of things I might not want to do. For example, some steps would be too steep (things like that). He was thoughtful and conscious of my needs, down to checking if I needed water or a restroom. And, we had the best freshly made yoghurt. 10 STARS. Our driver Ravi did exceptionally well navigating the Kathmandu traffic and then the windy roads. Hat's off to him for his excellent driving and caring for other drivers too. He even slowed down for a bird! All in all, it was a very rewarding and tiring day (about 5.5 hours). Would highly recommend this tour and Subash and Ravi.

Excellent tour. Deepak... - Excellent tour. Deepak knew to visit Nagarkot early so that we could take advantage of the clear skies; we had wonderful views of Annapurna and the Himalayas. We then with the Bhaktapur, where Deepak shared detailed knowledge and insight about the historical site. Great experience and would strongly recommend.

A recommended trip from Patan - We were fortunate to have Dipesh as our guide. Knowledgeable and friendly; his enthusiasm for the local culture and customs made the trip a real experience. Would highly recommend this tour and this tour company.

Friendly and Warm Guide - Amazing experience with the local guide! The guide picked up/dropped us at our hotel and shared amazing stories and history about Bhaktapur and Kathmandu. Overall the service was very nice and friendly. If you want to catch sunrise consider a weather forecast to manage your expectation. Unfortunately, we came during raining season so there was no sunrise at that time.

Great trip visiting Nagarkot and Bhaktapur - Lovely day visiting Nagarkot viewing point and Bhaktapur. Our guide, Subass (apologies if wrong spelling!) was very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. He was keen for us to have a good experience, allowing us plenty of free time to wander and take photos, and encouraging us to ask questions about anything along the way. As we visited in rainy season we knew we may not get clear views from Nagarkot. However, we were lucky in that the weather remained dry and there were occasional glimpses through the clouds of the view across to the Himalayas etc. at one point we had a lovely clear view of a valley below as the clouds parted. It was like being up in heaven! We had good views on the other side across Kathmandu Valley. Worth seeing. It was lovely to get out of the city, inhale clean air, see various plants and animals and pass through the small villages. Bhaktapur was gorgeous. Again, Subass explained everything to us and allowed us time to explore. Well worth visiting this beautiful ancient city. Special mention must go to the driver - very impressed with his abilities! All in all a great day.

Very informative and flexible itinerary - We had a wonderful trip. We got tired part of the way through, and our guide was kind enough to adjust the trip. Our guide was very knowledgable and provided lots of little bits of information as well as politics, medicinal plants, the impact of the earthquake and more. Thank you, Shankur!!!

Splendid Bhaktapur - It was great to have a little trip out of the city to Nagarkot with it's expansive views and fresh air. Bhakapur is not to be missed. The town centre has so many wonderful historic sites. Our guide was friendly and flexible enough to drop into Boudhanath Stupa on our way back to the city.
