From here, you can see on a clear day several of the world’s highest mountains including Mt. Everest.

Wonderful morning adventure in Kathmandu, seeing the breathtaking sunrise view of the Himalayan mountain before undertaking a hike to witness the Nepali way of life. It is indeed a great way to spend your morning to afternoon time in Kathmandu. Guide Shishir was amazing, very informative and a big point plus - a great photographer. Thank You!

You really have to do this trip! We had a lovely day. Also educational. ”Our” local guide, Shishir Thapa, learned us a lot about gods and inhabitants life.

We have just come back from a wonderful sunrise view and day hike tour.
The day starts early but it is so worth it! The sunrise view is spectacular. You then go onto have a nice breakfast at a nearby hotel and go on to the hike. I would recommend this hike to get a taste of the beautiful countryside near Kathmandu. It is a gentle downward hike so it is particularly good if (like me) you are not an experienced hiker.
We then went onto a beautiful ancient temple (oldest in Nepal) and spent some time with the friendly and welcoming local people.
The biggest standout of this tour for us, though, was our guide, Shishir. We have done a few tours now in the Kathmandu area and he has been by far the best guide we have had. His English is very very good, and he was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Nothing is too much trouble and he really takes the time to personalise the tour to what you are looking for, and explain the cultural and religious significance of the various sights and temples you see during the tour.
Our driver was also very friendly and a safe good driver (very important here given road quality and traffic!).
Overall, I would definitely recommend this tour - it is one of the most pleasant and authentic tours we have done in Nepal.
