A great way to start your day with a sensational view and then an interesting 11 k Walk - many thanks to Madan Thapa for taking us
It was rainy in that day so we could not able to go to Nagarkot, but Agency arranged us a temples Tour with a so kind and great guider. I do not remember exactly his name, maybe is SOM. Thank you so much for your supports us in Kathmandu. I will recommend you to my family and friends if they come to Nepal. Thanks a lot
Amazing trip amongst local villages, beautiful views with a superb guide and staff, I would highly recommend it
I came to Nepal on business, which unfortunately did not leave a lot of time for trekking and being outdoors. This day trip was a really convenient, easy, and straightforward way to experience some of the reasons people come to Nepal. Watching the sun rise over the Himalayas was a magnificent way to start the day, and the day hike was a great opportunity to see country life up-close. Shishir, our guide, was knowledgeable, accommodating, and willing to go above and beyond to ensure we had a positive experience. I highly recommend both him and this day trip.
Our guide, Shishir, was wonderfully kind and knowledgeable on the sites of Nagarkot. He made sure our group was comfortable the entire trip. The hike itself was mostly downhill and not difficult, but we opted out of the 2nd half of the hike due to the heat. The hotel pick up and drop off were also very good. Overall the trip was good and would recommend to any traveler.
The guide, Cecil, was very nice and knows a lot! Unfortunately the weather was cloudy, so we could not see the sunrise. The trek afterwards however did compensate this completely. We had the chance to see some of the real life in Nepal, after our 4 day Global Health Conference. I recommend all people who have only one day to book this trip! Maybe you never come back to Nepal! Probably you want to see more after this trip ;-)
This tour was fantastic! We had such a great time and Harry our tour guide was lovely. It was a private tour with Just the two of us and Harry, and we got to see a beautiful sunrise and then walk through many villages to reach the beautiful temple. Would definitely recommend!!
Beautiful sunrise and great hike. The scenery was lovely and the day was clear so we could see the mountains. Our tour guide was nice, knowledgeable, and spoke English well. We had a great time.
Great hike! The sunrise was breathtaking and so was the hike through Nagarkot. Our guide was very knowledgable and friendly. I highly recommend this hike.
