What To Expect
Swaymbhunath
At Swayambhunath, we guide you through one of Nepal’s most sacred and visually striking heritage sites. You’ll ascend to the hilltop stupa, where sweeping views of the Kathmandu Valley, fluttering prayer flags, and the energy of local devotees create an unforgettable atmosphere. The guide will explain the rich history, spiritual significance, and unique architecture of the stupa and surrounding shrines. You’ll have time to walk around the site, take photos, observe rituals, and experience the calm yet vibrant charm that makes Swayambhunath a must visit landmark on this tour.
Kathmandu Durbar Square
Located in the heart of the city, Kathmandu Durbar Square is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its ancient palaces, temples, and traditional Newari architecture. During your visit, your guide will lead you through the historic courtyards, explain the significance of the former royal palace, and highlight important monuments such as Kumari Ghar, Taleju Temple, and the Hanuman Dhoka complex. You will learn about the history of the Malla and Shah kings, local culture, and the role of the Living Goddess. This stop offers a clear understanding of Kathmandu’s royal heritage and provides excellent opportunities to observe daily life and take memorable photos.

5.00I met the tour operator owner, the driver and guide all at my hotel lobby at the appointed time, which gave a solo female traveler confidence that I was in good hands. Manesh the guide was a font of knowledge and used the driving time to fill me in on the history and significance of what we were about to visit. He gave me lots of space to pause wherever I wished and take photos before resuming his very detailed explanations of the places and things we were seeing. The car was new, clean and comfortable. The whole experience was perfect. I highly recommend this tour operator especially if you are traveling alone.

5.00It was amazing to see the main sights in Kathmandu with Kunjan. He picked us up promptly in a very comfortable car for sightseeing. He expertly drove us around the city and this isn't easy at times and took us to the main sights. He speaks great English so can communicate well and explain what you are going to see, what the admission charges are and he also made recommendations where to eat. He was more than willing to arrange a guide for the tour but it's also possible to pick up guides at various sights for around 10 USD. That way you can make the decision yourself if you want to be guided or wander at your leisure. We didn't have to agree pickup times since I could message him and he was always nearby ready to pick us up and take us to the next sight or back to the hotel. I can wholeheartedly recommend this tour and you'll be in safe hands and well looked after by Kunjan and his company who will put you at ease and make you feel very welcome in Nepal.
A very nice trip in Nepal
