Kathmandu Durbar Square
Our experienced history and culture guide takes you by private transport to Kathmandu Durbar square, which is an ancient royal palace. There are lots of pagoda temples with well-carved windows and more. The temples are very historic and sacred, which were made from the 12ve century to the 17th century. Living Goddess (Kumari) is one of the most highlighted to visit in Kathmandu Durbar square.
Swayambhunath stupa is located on a hill station, from where the view of Kathmandu valley and white mountain can be seen very well. It is a Buddhist site and very much holy for Buddhism. Swayambhunath is also known as a monkey temple because lots of monkeys are living around here. Colourful Tibetan Buddhist prayer flags, stupas and lots of other ancient monuments are the things to explore in this place.

We had an amazing experience exploring Kathmandu with Frolic Adventure, and our guide Rajesh truly made the day unforgettable. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and religious significance of each site we visited, including Pashupatinath, Boudhanath, and Swayambhunath. His passion for his country and culture shone through every explanation, and he was always happy to answer our questions in detail. Rajesh was also friendly, professional, and made us feel completely at ease throughout the tour. Everything was perfectly organized and timed, allowing us to relax and enjoy the experience. If you're planning a day tour in Kathmandu, we highly recommend Frolic Adventure — and be sure to ask for Rajesh!

The day tour included places all around Kathmandu, such as the Monkey temple, the Palace, the Bouddahanath, Durbar Square, the Kumari, Art galleries, and Pashupatinath. Rajesh was very knowledgeable about the history and stories of each place, and allowed time for a bit of wandering, inquiries, and photos. We drove to most sites, but there was a lot of walking from place to place as well, so comfortable shoes are a must! It was overall very fascinating and a wonderful way to spend the day exploring and learning.
