What are people saying about Bhaktapur

Sindhu_K, May 2026

Krishna Dai was Amazing

Booked the trip just a day prior. They confirmed and contacted me with guide information. My guide Krishna Dai and driver was very prompt and arrived on time to pick me at my location. We drove to Nagarkot for sunrise and had yummy breakfast. Krishna Dai even customized my itinerary and took me on a hike knowing my interest in hiking. He was very professional and I learned a lot about Bhaktapur’s history. I had a great time with Krishna Dai and I recommend this tour and the guide!

The best part of KTM

This was the best guide in KTM. We scheduled tours via our hotel but this was much better. The tour was nice, the storytelling was good and the shopping was better. Probably the best area in KTM

Bhaktapur Heritage City and Nagarkot Viewpoint Tour

Bhaktapur Heritage City and Nagarkot Viewpoint

I would recommend this tour. Madhu, our guide, spoke good English and gave us helpful information about the places we visited which included the Bhaktapur Heritage City and Changu Narayan Temple, the oldest Hindu Temple in Nepal. We ended our tour at the Nagarkot Viewpoint but it was too hazy to see the mountains. Nevertheless, we very much enjoyed this tour which took us outside Kathmandu.
