5.00We had an incredible experience with Deepak as our tour guide in Nepal. From the very beginning, he was warm, friendly, and genuinely caring, which made us feel comfortable and well looked after throughout the entire trip. Deepak has a wealth of knowledge and explained everything clearly, giving us a much deeper understanding of the places we visited, the culture, and the history. Visiting places like Boudhanath Stupa and the temples at Pashupatinath, he explained everything in a way that really stuck, giving context to what we were seeing without it ever feeling rehearsed. What really stood out was his flexibility, he was always happy to adjust plans to suit our needs and made sure we got the most out of our time. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and his calm, attentive nature made the whole experience seamless and enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend Deepak to anyone visiting Nepal.
Perfect tour for limited time in Kathmandu

5.00I would highly recommend this tour. Had a limited amount of time in Kathmandu and chose this tour based on reviews I read on Viator and TripAdvisor. The tour did not disappoint. Prashant was my guide and he was great at sharing information while also checking how much I wanted to hear about each site - perfect balance. He also gave me some free time to explore at a couple sites which was appreciated and he didn’t then have to explain everything to me. The driver was fantastic getting us around the traffic in Kathmandu. Final stop with a quick bite and drink was much appreciated. Only wish I had more time to explore other sites with this tour company.
Ideal tour for a short stay in Kathmandu

5.00The day was very informative and relaxed. A lot to see and take in, but there was no hurry and the guide took care of the tickets purchases etc. and kept us up to speed at all times. Journeys between the sites were also interesting, and we got to see a little bit if the "true Nepal" as our guide pointed out. Pick-up was punctual and everything went smoothly as scheduled. Knowledgeable guide and a skillful driver, who got us through some tight spots. 😄 A long day but definitely worth it. High recommendations!
Great one day trip for family and small group.

5.00An excellent tour which enables you to visit so many of the important sites in Kathmandu with ease and comfort. Our guide Dipesh was fantastic. He gave us so much historical, cultural and religious detail about all the places we visited whilst also letting us just drink in our magnificent surroundings. I would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kathmandu.
