The perfect day trip - Excellent service, knowledgeable guide and driver and trusted advice. They were flexible to adjust my start time as I had some arrival delays. Pickup and drop off at hotel. It’s a long day to see all 7 but so worth it. You get out of the city a little bit so get to also see a little of the countryside in bits and pieces. The guide was very helpful with some shopping I wished to do but there was no “hard sell” of any kind. We had a nice lunch stop and the he helped me get some great photos. Do this is you want a comprehensive tour of all the highlights.

Great Day in Kathmandu - We did the seven UNESCO site tour with Breakfree Adventures. Our guide Shankar was very knowledgeable and passionate about Nepal and the sites we toured. The tour itself provided a great variety of locations. Our driver Ravi was very safe and navigated the chaotic streets of Kathmandu like an expert. I highly recommend this tour with Shankar as the guide.

Kathmandu world heritage sites - I really enjoyed this tour. It’s a lot to fit in one day, but if you’re short on time, it’s worth it.
The temples and palaces are amazing. My guide, Dipendra, was friendly and professional. He explained everything so well at each site. It really helps to get that knowledge of the history and culture of each site from a guide.
The driver was also really good. He did a fantastic job of negotiating heavy traffic.
I highly recommend this tour.

Kathmandu UNESCO experience - I had a great tour with Dipesh. Very knowledgeable and professional guide and driver. With limited time in Nepal, this tour enabled me to see all the major sites in one day. I would recommend the experience to anyone interested in visiting Kathmandu and learning more about the history and culture of the city.

Kathmandu in one day! - I only had a layover in Kathmandu for less than a day but still wanted to see the most of the city and use my time the best. That is when I found the 7 UNESCO World Heritage Site trip on Tripadvisor. Typically the trip would kick off in the morning but I only arrived to the city at noon. That is when Deepak, my great host and guide in Kathmandu came to the picture who was willing to do the extra mile and have our trip late to the night to finish all the 7 sites. It was an amazing journey through Nepal and Kathmandu’s history and present. Lots of sharing that gave me a chance to learn about local life. The city is amazing and definitely needs longer time to explore everything but in one day miracles can be achieved as well. Thanks to Deepak I had the best time in Kathmandu and fully recommend him to anyone.

Superb experiecne - Our guide was friendly and excellent in every way. His has a great command of English and his knowledge of Kathmandu and Nepal history was impeccable. We were particularly impressed by his own personal history of coming from a remote village in Nepal to pursuing higher education in English literature in the city. He coordinated well with the driver and we saw all the sites efficiently. Absolutely worth it if you are short on time and want to pack the most of Kathmandu in a day.

First time in Kathmandu - book this trip! - we had a great tour with a lot of insights to the history and relegion of Nepal. Our guide (Shankar Bhattarai) made the best out of one day! We really enjoyed the whole day and also the local food in the restaurant recommended by Shankar was perfect.

A must do trip with Viator as it covers all you need to visit in Kathmandu - It was an excellent solo day trip covering all UNESCO sites. The tour was conducted by Mukesh Shah as the tour guide who was very knowledgeable and cooperative. He was able to explain all history of monuments, the importance of spiritual background of all temples. It was a long tour with lot of walking and climbing involved but visiting the sites was not tiring as the experience was unique. The driver Shyam also was very gentle and careful in driving the air conditioned vehicle. I highly recommend this tour and specially Mukesh as the guide. Happy sightseeing

A must-do tour in Kathmandu - The tour was fantastic, done meticulously by my guide Mukesh Shah. The driver, Shyam, drove very carefully, and it was a pleasure to visit all the UNESCO sites and the temples. I really liked all the sites but Bhaktapur was the best. Pashupatinath temple visit in rains was exceptionally rewarding. All the best to Mukesh whose knowledge was up to date. Thanks for an excellent trip
