All Kathmandu Tours & Excursions in 2026

Deepak took me for a great food tour but that was just the beginning. He knew about the origins and how the food was created and had a great background of all the restaurants and shops we went to. I would highly recommend this trip and look forward to going on another tour with him again in the future.

Beautiful and varied tour with a pleasant hike. We learned a lot of understandable information about Buddhism and Hinduism as well as the history of Nepal and the current situation. Guide and driver were very attentive and friendly. We thank our tour guide Purushottam for the great day.

My husband and I did a 4 UNESCO site tour with Sujan, and it was incredible! He is incredibly knowledgeable and answered all of my questions about the unique culture and history of Nepal. We had such interesting discussions that made the tour ever more fulfilling and informative. Thank you Sujan!

This was undoubtedly one of the most unforgettable experiences of our trip to Nepal, not only because of the incredible opportunity to see the Himalayas and Mount Everest, but especially because of the extraordinary kindness, dedication, and professionalism of our guide, Nawa. The Mount Everest sightseeing flight itself is a truly unique experience. Seeing the magnificent Himalayan mountain range from the air is something every traveler should experience at least once. However, what made our particular journey so memorable was something we could never have anticipated. Due to severe weather conditions, our aircraft was unexpectedly diverted from Kathmandu to Biratnagar Airport in eastern Nepal. Instead of returning to Kathmandu as planned after a short sightseeing flight, we found ourselves stranded at an airport far away from our hotel, with no clear idea of when the weather would improve or when we would be able to return. It was an extremely unexpected and stressful situation, especially as we were supposed to check out of our hotel that same day and had other travel arrangements to consider. And this is exactly where Nawa proved himself to be not just an excellent guide, but an absolutely exceptional human being. Although the situation was completely beyond his control and his normal responsibilities, Nawa never stopped looking after us. For hours, he continuously followed our situation, stayed in contact with us, checked on our well-being, helped coordinate arrangements, and did everything he possibly could to make things easier for us. He was incredibly patient, thoughtful, reassuring, and proactive throughout the entire ordeal. Rather than simply telling us that the flight diversion was an airline issue, he genuinely took responsibility for helping us navigate the situation. He kept looking for solutions, communicating with us, and making sure we never felt forgotten or abandoned. What impressed us most was that his concern never felt like something he was doing merely because it was his job. His kindness was absolutely genuine. You could really feel that he cared about us as people, not just as customers. Traveling in a foreign country can become quite challenging when unexpected circumstances arise, particularly when you are stranded somewhere unfamiliar due to weather conditions. Having someone like Nawa on your side makes an enormous difference. He turned a very difficult and stressful situation into a powerful reminder of how much genuine kindness and human connection matter when traveling. I have experienced many tours and met many guides during my travels, but Nawa truly stands out. His professionalism, patience, compassion, and willingness to go far beyond what anyone could reasonably expect were simply remarkable. The flight itself is absolutely worth experiencing, and the beauty of the Himalayas is breathtaking. Of course, mountain flights are highly dependent on weather conditions, and unexpected changes can happen. But what matters most in those situations is knowing that you are dealing with people who genuinely care about your safety, comfort, and overall experience. Our experience showed us that this tour offers something far more valuable than just a flight ticket and an airport transfer. It offers the peace of mind that comes from having someone truly dedicated to helping you, even when things don't go according to plan. Nawa, if you are reading this, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We will never forget your kindness, your patience, and everything you did for us that day. You had absolutely no control over the weather or the flight diversion, yet you did everything within your power to support us. That means more to us than you can imagine. Sometimes the most memorable part of a journey isn't the destination or the scenery, but the wonderful people you meet along the way. For us, Nawa was certainly one of those people. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience, and especially Nawa, to anyone planning a Mount Everest sightseeing flight from Kathmandu. Five stars simply aren't enough to express our gratitude. Thank you, Nawa, for being such an incredible guide and, above all, such a genuinely kind-hearted person. Nepal is lucky to have people like you representing its hospitality!

We went with an open mind and no expectations. We were met at the meeting point on time. We then had what would happen explained to us, and questions could be asked. We both found the whole experience interesting. Would recommend to other travellers who are open and don’t have expectations.

Flight around Mt. Everest is well worth the early morning. Driver picked us up at hotel and got us into the airport with minimal fuss. Gave us a light boxed breakfast as well. Be flexible on flight departure times. KTM is an international airport with only one runway so delays are par for the course. Once flight is in the air, it's not long before the Himalayas appear. Flight attendant lets you know which mountains you're seeing. Once you return, driver gets you back to hotel. Any way you slice it, it's a cool experience and worth the price and early wakeup. Viator team was helpful every step of the way.

I’ve been on many food tours around the world and this was definitely one of the best! Swoyam was an excellent guide - safely navigating me through the local alleyways, telling me the stories behind everything we saw. The food was varied and delicious - I tried many foods I had never heard of, and ones I had many times before like jalebi and lassi were the best I’d ever tried! The tour allowed me to try and see things I could have never by myself, and it was definitely the tastiest food I ate in Nepal. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

Marvellous experience with a well versed Guide Shanti who was very knowledgable and helpful showing us around. The driver was an expert at driving us safely to each destination and back. A tour packed with very interesting info about palaces, temples and places -strongly recommend.
