Go for the views but stay for the weather (May) - Fantastic views from the top and a smooth cable car ride. At an elevation of 2000+ meters, the whole Kathmandu valley can be seen and in the distance the mountain ranges. Unfortunately it was a cloudy day and the mountains can't be seen clearly. However, the weather was fantastic and the cooler climate make this trip worth it. Again, I have a fantastic guide, Ram who arrange this together with the monkey temple (Swayambhunath Temple) visit and t was a smooth and seemly visit. Ram is very reliable, pleasant and really appreciated his service, despite it being a last minute tour.

Brilliant afternoon with guide Paras - Great communication from the start with Guide Paras. He offered us a flexible start time as our arrival in the city was unclear. Super conversation all afternoon, more like being with a friend than a guide. Excellent transport and driver throughout the tour.

From Kathmandu to the mountain! They have it all! - The views were amazing! We had a nice walk to the hilltop resort, and had a little wander around the temple. The guide was very knowledgeable and flexible. After the hill top excursion, we had a wander around the old town market and finished off with with a nice meal! The tour guide does several different trips and can easily arrange for additional outings...

Great Day Out - As our flight was leaving late in the afternoon, we wanted to have one more adventure in Nepal,. We chose to go to Chandragiri as the day promised to be sunny and we chose to go with Himalaya Holiday Service because of the previous great experience. As before we were able to customize the tour to include not only the cable car but also a stop in the Kathmandu Durbar square. The driver, Anil was flawless, calm throughout all the city traffic and always smiling, and the guide, Paras, accommodating, an excellent photographer, with a very good command of English and with an excellent knowledge base. A truly enjoyable experience!
