5.00We had a great time and learned a lot during this tour. The 4 sites are super interesting and not to be missed by anyone travelling in Kathmandu. We also had a nice lunch break in a lovely rooftop restaurant next to Buddha Stoupa and had time to absorb more the local atmosphere. Our guide, Rem, gave a lot of interesting information and was very prompt to any arrangements we needed. Our driver Bizey made the experience comfortable. Thank you both for making our experience memorable!

5.00Our guide Ananta took time to ask what places we were most interested in, then helped us plan the best route and schedule based on our preferences. I truly believe that having a great guide is so important — they can make your journey so much better! He was incredibly attentive and thoughtful, and he explained the architecture and local culture with so much passion. We’re really thankful for him!
