Nature’s Beauty at its Best -
“The early bird catches the worm” and that what happened. My tour guide, Bijen Maharjan was already waiting in the hotel. But he came to meet me a day before the tour to acquainted ourselves. That’s a great gesture on his part. He is well-mannered type of good guy ask for him as a tour guide, good command of English, knowledgeable of Nepal’s history. Even the driver is great, he navigates and maneuvers the narrow road with ease. The Road to Nagarkot is treacherous, careless driving you end up in the ravine. Nagarkot known for its views of the Himalayan mountains which is very striking to watch while the sun starts to emerge from the mountain or when the sun settles down. Admire the rays of the sun as it hovers the sky. The wonders of God’s creations.

Outstanding - We couldn’t have asked for a better tour, driver or guide. The view was incredible and the experience was worth a lifetime of memoirs. Highly recommend this tour!
