Super . I was lucky to get very professional both a guide and a driver. A guide, Pradip, is a gem of this company. Fantastic personality, encyclopedic knowledge. Recommend to book.

Although Pradip is a very interested guide and made the most to assure a quality hike, the weather conditions weren't the most suitable to appreciate the natural landscape. I can't help feeling it was a bit overpriced...

This trip was great. It was worth going up to the mountains and walking down through the hills and seeing how village people live. I would recommend this tour.

If you are looking to experience the culture of rural Nepal while burning some calories, I highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide, Pradip, was amazing. He hiked according to our pace, and took the time to ensure we had the best possible experience. Pradip was very attentive to our interests and was able to tell how much I love animals especially goats. He went above and beyond and asked the local farmers if I could pet and hold their baby goats. It was such an awesome experience. He let us swing on a handmade swing made out of bamboo. That was a lot of fun. Pradip was more than willing to take pictures of us and even knew how to use a higher quality camera, Canon EOS Digital DSLR. He was such an awesome guide and I would definitely booking this tour.

Great day hiking through Nagarkot. The peaceful hike, the guide's knowledge, the beautiful landscape: All of it was superb. I'll absolutely do this again on my next visit to the valley.

We were picked up from our hotel on time in a clean, large SUV. Our driver and guide were very friendly and our guide told us all about the city. The drive up to Nagarkot is quite bumpy, but the view of the Himalayas at the top is breathtaking. The hike down is amazing as well! Would recommend!
