A unique experience and a must do.
Great guide too! Beautiful temples and you get to experience the everyday life of the locals, walking around the city, in the local markets, not the tourist ones.

I had an absolutely amazing tour with a guide names raja or something (cannot remember his full name). This guide had so much knowledge, my soul is filled with ancient wisdom, spirituality and Nepal knowledge. Furthermore I had fun and very interesting conversations about life, happiness etc. with this guide which I really really liked.
He gave me all the time I wanted to stay at a place, he answered all my questions and the whole experience was better then I expected. I will def book a tour here again. If you doubt: do it! It's Great

Rabi was an excellent guide with a calm, laid-back and friendly demeanor. He is extremely knowledgeable of many sites and Buddhist and Hindu traditions. Would def recommend his tour if you’re looking for something more personal in a smaller group or privately.
