What To Expect
Changu Narayan Temple
Check out Changu Narayan Temple—the oldest in Kathmandu Valley, tucked away in a quiet forest with serious ancient vibes. Built way back in the Licchavi days (around 450–750 AD), this two-tiered pagoda-style temple is all about Lord Vishnu, one of Hinduism’s biggest deities. Before you head in, swing by the Changu Museum (Nepal’s first private museum) to get a feel for the local history. The place is packed with old-school charm, spiritual energy, and some seriously cool craftsmanship. If you’re into ancient sites with a laid-back, mystical atmosphere, this is your spot.
Bhaktapur Durbar Square
At the heart of Bhaktapur lies the enchanting Bhaktapur Durbar Square, a captivating destination for tourists. This square encompasses four distinct squares: Pottery Square, Dattatreya Square, Taumadhi Square, and Durbar Square. Within its boundaries, you will discover remarkable attractions such as the 55 Window Palace, the majestic Nyatapola Temple, and the iconic Lion's Gate. The brick-laden pathways, intricately carved woodwork, unique nepali-pagoda-style temples, and historical monuments leave a lasting impression on visitors. Take a leisurely stroll through Pottery Square for a truly unique and immersive experience.

5.00Shreya took us on a city tour of Kathmandu. She was very knowledgeable and kind. She took her time to show us the sights and to teach us about the history and culture. She was easy to talk too and easy to understand. Would definitely recommend Shreya to anyone wanting to learn more about Nepal’s history and culture.
Incredible, insightful, engaging, and fun!

5.00I took a very well-curated and in-depth tour of Patan Square with Frankie, whose knowledge of the area and enthusiasm for sharing it were top-notch. He led a fairly diverse group, making sure that he accounted for each tour-member's individual interests. Also, it was marvelous to discuss Nepal's economics and foreign relations with someone who loves and understands history! 10/10 would do again.
A wonderful Experience in Nepal

5.00Sandip was a knowledgeable and fun guide with the secret super power of coming up with the most creative individual nicknames. He made my tour a great experience that I fully recommend! In addition to Boudha Stupa and Pashupatinath, I also got to visit a Tibetan Monastery and had an intensive sound healing bowl introduction.
My perfect Kathmandu day!

5.00This was one of the best tours of my trip! The Stupas and Temples were remarkable. My “team for the day” was incredible! My guide was Pranav and our driver was Bijaya. I can’t imagine having a better day. It was a private tour and these two men had everything worked out perfectly and we went at my pace. Use this company with confidence and you will enjoy every moment!
The perfect Kathmandu tour!

5.00This was a wonderful tour! Because it was private, we went at my pace. Pranav was one of the best guides I’ve ever had! He was knowledgeable, accommodating, kind, and spoke beautiful English. He had a personal understanding of the Stupas and Temples we visited, and was happy to let me participate in the rituals as much as I was willing (which was a lot…). I think what touched me the most personally was seeing the cremation sites at Pashupatinath Temple. It was meaningful and a very respectful site. Please use this company for your tour needs! It was run well, my driver Bijaya was top notch and was extremely skilled at navigating the crazy Kathmandu traffic! Ask for Pranav to be your guide extraordinaire! They made the perfect team and provided me with not only a unique experience, but a lifetime of memories!
Great information and a fun tour
