Perfect tour - highly recommended! - Perfect tour, highly recommended!! Pick Up from our hotel in a very comfortable mini bus and because of low season, we were only two people which was fantastic! We visited all the seven UNESCO highlights, had very good lunch (self paid) in between. The guide has an enormous knowledge and is friendly and funny, he was also open to talk about the general problems and life in Nepal. The driver was always there, we basically never had to wait for him to pick us up. Highlight for us was definitely the visit of the crematory side! Thanks a lot again!!

Great Experience - This was such a fun experience. I got to experience all the wonders of Nepal and the main temples and areas that most folks try to do in one trip, I was able to do in one experience. It was just me on the tour and at first I was nervous that it would be awkward, but my guide was so friendly, and we really got along. He allowed me to take in everything at my own pace, there was no rushing, and I was able to really explore and learn so much. The whole experience was amazing and I would 100% do it again, and recommend others to do it.

Culture in a day - Great tour with Suresh, he was really knowledgeable about all the sites, very good communication in English and Hindi. Definitely recommend this tour if you want to cover all the main cultural sites in one day with quick overview of each. If you want more in-depth and more time at each place then better to split and do max 3-4 sites per day especially if it’s hot. I travelled solo but joined a group tour with another couple, group tours were not so easy to find in low season/Nepal, with feedback being that visitors prefer private tour guide. Luxury holidays were also very professional and on time/early for pick up.

Great tour - Great tour covering all the major unesco spots saving a lot of time and hassle of trying to go around on one’s own. Hemant, my guide, was very knowledgeable and nice :)

Exceeded expectations - Guide Namaraj was excellent and very flexible. It took us about 12 hours to see all 7 UNESCO sites (because we were slow). Some guides might become frustrated with this or say we have run out of time to see them all, but not Namaraj. It felt as if our experience was the most important aspect for him and he went out of his way to ensure it exceeded expectations. Highly recommended and excellent value.

Informative Tour - I read below that Sujan wasn't knowledgeable about the tour, and I completely disagree with that. He was punctual and gave amount of time to prepare, explore, and explain things during the tour. He was considerate and respect your time and asked if you have any questions or doubts during the tour. Overall, it was a nice tour and you will be able to learn more than what it is included in the tour.
