Highly recommended! - We had a wonderful and memorable trip with our guide, Pankaj! He and the driver picked us up at the hotel as agreed (punctually), after which we headed to Nagarkot to view the sunrise over the Himalaya. If you're uncertain whether it is worth getting up for at 3.30 at night: Yes, it is! We had a clear blue sky and the views were magnificent. After plenty of time for enjoying the magic, we had a very good breakfast at Club Himalaya. Then a two-hour pleasant and easy walk in the hillside, which gives insight in Nepalese rural life. We finished the tour with a visit to a world heritage hindu temple. Pankaj spoke good Enhlish, was very pleasant to be with and very knowledgeable about the places that we visited. The driver drove responsibly and carefully, so that we felt safe all the way (there were seatbelts also in the back of the car, which is not that common in Nepal). I would definitely recommend taking a tour with Pankaj!

Breathtaking View Of Nepal - Wonderful morning adventure in Kathmandu, seeing the breathtaking sunrise view of the Himalayan mountain before undertaking a hike to witness the Nepali way of life. It is indeed a great way to spend your morning to afternoon time in Kathmandu. Guide Shishir was amazing, very informative and a big point plus - a great photographer. Thank You!

Beautiful sunrise, perfect way to spend a day in Nepal - We have just come back from a wonderful sunrise view and day hike tour. The day starts early but it is so worth it! The sunrise view is spectacular. You then go onto have a nice breakfast at a nearby hotel and go on to the hike. I would recommend this hike to get a taste of the beautiful countryside near Kathmandu. It is a gentle downward hike so it is particularly good if (like me) you are not an experienced hiker. We then went onto a beautiful ancient temple (oldest in Nepal) and spent some time with the friendly and welcoming local people. The biggest standout of this tour for us, though, was our guide, Shishir. We have done a few tours now in the Kathmandu area and he has been by far the best guide we have had. His English is very very good, and he was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Nothing is too much trouble and he really takes the time to personalise the tour to what you are looking for, and explain the cultural and religious significance of the various sights and temples you see during the tour. Our driver was also very friendly and a safe good driver (very important here given road quality and traffic!). Overall, I would definitely recommend this tour - it is one of the most pleasant and authentic tours we have done in Nepal.

Beautiful sunrise with a short hike - An early pick up at 5am from hotel to catch the sunrise and the scenery is spectacular. Breakfast is not included in the tour but you can choose from international buffet or local breakfast. Then we started a downhill hike to experience their local tribe culture and witness some buildings post earthquake in 2015. This tour is suitable for those who wants to have an easy hike and experience the local tribe culture.

Lovely scenic hike - This half-day hike starts early in the morning with hotel pick-up and drive to Nagarkot. There you watch a spectacular sunrise over the Himalayan peaks, followed by breakfast at a nearby hotel. Then you hike from Nagarkot to the Changu Narayan temple. It is said to take four hours, but we did it in three. It is mostly downhill, although there is a rather steep uphill portion right after the halfway point. You pass through rural villages, and a nice stretch through forest. Our guide, Bidur, was excellent and we really enjoyed the experience.
