A great day out in the foothills - A big thank you to Shishir for a wonderful trip. Watching the sunrise over the mountains was the highlight of our trip to Nepal. We also enjoyed the time walking with Shishir down through the countryside and through the local villages. We hope to come to Nepal soon and use his guiding again. Big thanks. Nicki and Charles

Amazing tour with fantastic guide, Shishir - Had a lovely day out hiking from sunset to midday with our guide, Shishir. He was knowledgeable, friendly and happy to answer all questions Nepal/Kathmandu. I really enjoyed learning more about his experiences leading tours, trekking to base camps and climbing summits. Very interesting and insightful.
After pick up and the sunrise point, we had breakfast at a local cafe. This was a good experience. We were also lucky to have excellent weather throughout the day and he was very informative about the mountains we passed. He helped take many photos which was much appreciated.
I particularly liked that Shishir walked at a pace that I could keep up at (I'm sure it felt like a lifetime for him!) and explain about the villages that we passed. An excellent tour guide and day. Will definitely recommend him to other customers and my friends

Lovely sunrise and day out in Nepal - Shishir was a very lovely and kind guide who answered all our questions! He and the driver took us to our sunrise viewpoint where he took lots of good photos of us, then we had some local breakfast foods, before he guided us on our hike to Changunarayan temple. Then we were dropped off at our hotel. Thank you for the wonderful day Shishir!

Amazing trip - Shishir is so knowledgeable, friendly, and most of all invested in your experience in Kathmandu. Not just for this hike, but for my whole stay. What you actually see on this is really dependent on your luck with the weather and cloud cover, but no matter what you get you will enjoy yourself! I only had a little over two days here, and he did everything he could to help me make the most of it. Strong recommend!

Great day in Kathmandu with Shishir (Best Tourguide in Nepal) - I booked the trip 'The most beautiful 1 day experience in Kathmandu Nepal' and it was amazing. Shishir picked me up at 5 am from my hotel and drove to Nagarkot for sunrise view to start my day. Weather was so nice, the sunrise view was amazing on the Himalaya. His knowledge about the history of Nepal and the culture was very profound, he answered every question of mine. We hiked through local nepalese villages and the people we met have been very hospitable and friendly to me. It was a great way to see the sides of Nepal you normally dont get to see. We also visited the Changunarayan temple which was one of my personal highlights, the ancient architectural gem of Kathmandu Valley. I loved the tour, especially the nature and the knowledge of Shishir made this day one that I will never forget. Thank you Shishir for every single effort to make my day, I will come back next year for the Everest base camp trek with you. 🗻 Dhanyabaad🙏

A super cool activity! - A super cool activity! The sunrise was enchantingly beautiful and the hike afterwards fantastic! Beautiful views and on the route small villages with all kinds of activities, many animals, beautiful flowers, tasty fruit.
Shishir has guided us super fine, knows a lot about the environment and Nepalese culture, religions and customs. And is also a warm person, nice interlocutor and pleasant company. He was also cozy with our 10-year-old son.
Recommended! ✨🙏 Thanks Shishir for a special day!

Definitely the most beautiful day in Kathmandu - I would definitely recommend Shishir and this tour to anyone visiting Kathmandu! While the weather did not allow for a view of a spectacular sunrise over the Himalayan mountains at Nagarkot, the rest of the tour was certainly unforgettable. Shishir was very passionate about sharing his knowledge of the area and answered my many questions. The hiking component was mostly downhill so is also accessible for most!
