Nepal · TOUR REVIEWS
A fortnight in Nepal splits three ways: the Kathmandu Valley, Pokhara and the lake, and however many days you can give a trail. The 15 below are the bookings that earn their day, priced and timed, with the full catalogue underneath.
One day in Kathmandu Valley to see 7 UNESCO sites with a guided history tour and lunch, plus hotel pickup and private transport.
“Thanks to Dipendra! He told all the information we needed, took pictures of me whenever I asked and was super nice guy. The tour was as long as stated (no “cutting” time). He also commands very nice English.”
Shared helicopter from Kathmandu to Everest Base Camp area with flyovers and Everest View Hotel landing, optional breakfast, Lukla stop.
“The stay in Tea house and the Everest view was phenomenal! The whole experience is incredibly beautiful! Buddhi is very professional and looked after us very well. Went an extra mile”
ZipFlyer Nepal in Pokhara reaches 100 km/h on a 1.9 km dual zipline from Sarangkot, with return transfers and big Annapurna views.

HighGround Bungee in Pokhara is a 70m tower jump with about five seconds of freefall, plus Lakeside transfers and small group timing.
“Fantastic experience. I did both zipline and bungee and both are worth to do. If you are in Pokhara just do it”

I would definitely recommend them to anyone thinking of trekking in Nepal, they are great!”

Learn Kathmandu staples from scratch. Market walk, hands-on momo and dal bhat cooking, plus tasting and masala tea for about $9.
“This Nepalese cooking class was an unforgettable experience! The friendly staff made learning traditional recipes fun and engaging, while the super clean kitchen ensured a smooth process. From fresh ingredients that we got to shop for to hands-on techniques, every detail was thoughtfully planned. The best part? Tasting the incredibly flavorful dishes we prepared - an absolute treat! Highly recommended for food lovers and cultural enthusiasts.”
Hotel pickup to Sarangkot for a timed sunrise over Annapurna peaks, with entry included, photos time, and mineral water.
“Had a wonderful trip to Sarangkot. A must do while in Pokhara. The tour company reached out over whatsapp to confirm pick up time and location. I was picked up by my driver and guide Ranjit. Ranjit was great! He was knowledgeable and helpful. He showed me around, while also giving me space to explore by myself. Highly recommended activity.”
Private Kathmandu UNESCO day tour visiting Swayambhunath, Durbar Squares, Patan, Bhaktapur, Boudhanath, Changu Narayan and Pashupatinath.
“Pranav is a talented tour guide: well prepared, funny and easy going, a great company for a daylong tour. The time slots at the sites are calculated well, there is no rushing through feeling. At the end of the day you feel that you saw and learnt a lot in an enjoyable way.”
Kathmandu to Nagarkot for a Himalayan sunrise, then a gentle morning hike to UNESCO Changu Narayan, with packed food and pickup.
“I spent half a day with Bikram starting with the sunrise at Nagarkot. Although there was only partial visibility, the views were still worth the early start. From there, we visited the Bageshwori Nagarkot Suspension Bridge and then walked to Changu Narayan, a historic Hindu temple. We ended the tour exploring Bhaktapur Durbar Square. Bikram is very patiant and knowledgeable about the sites and the history of the area. I highly recommend him!”

“We had an excellent tour, highly recommended!! Our guide Sumit was very friendly, respectful and good at taking photos :) He knew so many things about all the sights, while Amik drove us safely through the crazy Kathmandu traffic. A huge thanks to these two! The Durbar squares were just amazing with all the wood carvings, palaces and tempels and Pashupatinath a must-see to better understand the Hindu culture.”
Evening small-group tour of Boudhanath Stupa and Pashupatinath Temple, with aarti, prayer wheels, local transport, and respectful views along the Bagmati River.

Pick the altitude, pick the city, pick the kitchen.
