Would recommend! - This was such a fun experience! Our tour guide Biraj patiently explained the history and significance of each site to us, which enhanced the experience. Chandragiri hills and zip lining was a really cool experience. The Monkey Temple was so lovely and rich with history, and we learned a lot! We are very happy with this experience, would definitely recommend!

A Great Day out - Brilliant tour with Prakash. I was picked up on time and given a brief overview of the tour ahead. I found Prakash to be polite and engaging throughout the day. He was very insightful about Nepal in general and found myself learning so many things. He answered all the questions I asked him and showed himself to be very knowledgable. Would highly recommend this tour
