5.00Really enjoyed the experience with Deepak! Great overview and walk through Bhaktapur, definitely recommend in the morning as a way to get out of busy Kathmandu.
Special thanks to our guide, Bidhaya, who was fantastic with our kids. Our driver, Kancha, deserves a shout-out!

5.00Bhaktapur & Nagarkot Tour – Culture, Views & Comfort Combined Our day exploring Bhaktapur and Nagarkot was a perfect blend of history, beauty, and comfort. Bhaktapur’s UNESCO World Heritage sites are incredibly impressive—rich in culture, architecture, and stories that take you back centuries. The trip up to Nagarkot was equally stunning. The mountain and city views from there are absolutely breathtaking, and it offers a peaceful look into life in rural Nepal, away from the city buzz. Special thanks to our guide, Bidhaya, who was fantastic with our kids (12 and 13). She adapted the tour pace to keep them engaged and made sure we didn’t linger too long in historical deep-dives they weren’t into—super appreciated! Our driver, Kancha, deserves a shout-out too—safe, calm, and always on time, even on the winding roads up the mountain. Highly recommended for families looking for a culturally rich but relaxed day trip from Kathmandu!

5.00A wonderful day trip from Thamel! The tour started right on time with pick-up from hotel. Vidya was a great guide, highly knowledgable, very flexible and friendly. Since the day was rainy and we would not get a great view from Nagarkot, she suggested we see Changu Narayan Temple. A unique and local experience! Thank you Vidya for the great day!
