Nagarkot Sunrise and Bhaktapur - EXCELLENT
davidsD6976AE,Feb 5, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. Pick up at our hotel was prompt (at 5:30 am!) and we arrived at Nagarkot about 10 minutes before sunrise. From there, we had a substantial (and delicious) breakfast at a nearby hotel's restaurant, hiked a couple hours through the small villages below Nagarkot, and then went to Bhaktapur. Our guide - Dipendra - is fun, intelligent, and speaks excellent English. He made the trip truly memorable and a great opportunity for us to learn more about Nepal's history, culture, and the day-to-day goings on in the country. The driver, Ram, was similarly excellent.
