    Amazing Nepal experience. Indeed. Guide Hemanta was very helpful, experienced with wonderful and historical knowledges i felt so blessed witnessing these buddhist pilgrimage sites. You don’t need to wipe your eyes after visiting live cremation site at pasupatinath temple once you visit all these places and new a bit about buddhism. Highly recommended.

    I greatly enjoyed my 6-day experience. Nepal has such a vast amount of cultural sites, I am definitely glad I chose the extended package. The tour providers were very diligent in providing options and curating the experience to my interests. I really felt immersed beyond my wildest expectations.
