“Had a fabulous day with Anon in Kathmandu. Great guide accommodating all requests, very knowledgeable and good companion! I did not do justice to Kathmandu trying to cover all 7 UNESCO sites in one day - probably worth 2-3 days - but Anon was very generous with his time, and we went well into the evening to meaningfully cover the itinerary. Krishna, our driver had been great too, very safe and careful transfer around the city. Has learnt a lot about culture, architecture, people, food, religion. A well balanced trip! Highly recommended.”
Watch sunrise over the Himalayas at Nagarkot, then hike through villages, forests, fields, and across a suspension bridge to Changu Narayan.
“The views were amazing, we could see the mountain peaks and the sunrise even though it was a little foggy. We were given enough time to take pictures or enjoy the view. There was also a hike to a waterfall and suspension bridge. Some parts were a little steep and the steps were uneven but our guide Pradip helped me and tried his best to ensure that I was comfortable and didn't fall. He also checked in with us consistently and made an effort to get to know us and share everything he knows. Thank you so much for this wonderful hike 💛”
