Amazing experience!

I did the Smells of Kathmandu walking tour and had an amazing experience! My guide was patient, knowledgeable and took me to explore streets and alleys I would have never found on my own as a tourist. He took many amazing photos and videos of me too. A unique experience that I am very glad I did.

The perfect tour to get an insight into the colorful hustle and bustle around Durbar Square

Thanks, to the company that they give me a german guide, Rajendra. He spoke perfect German and explained everything, absolutely everything, to me during our walk. Thank you so much for the magnificent impressions of Kathmandu.

The Kathmandu not every tourist sees

As the tour description promises, Sunil took me into the narrow streets and alleys of old Kathmandu. Most tourists don't venture there as they would get lost in no time. It is busy, colourful, crowded with pedestrians and scooters. Just locals going about their daily lives. Sunil is very knowledgeable and very happy to share this aspect of his city with a visitor.

A tour of a unique Kathmandu. Do not miss!

We spent a very interesting afternoon with Sunil discovering the hidden side of Kathmandu, strolling through the small streets, discovering squares, monuments on every street corner, and soaking up the Nepalese culture and smells . A visit not to be missed to get off the beaten track and discover the “real” Kathmandu!

Wonderful experience!

It’s such a privilege to have Sunil as my guide for exploring the hidden gems in Kathmandu and Patan. He is a one-of-a-kind guide who is gentle, sophisticated, thoughtful, and sensitive to others’ needs. He makes sure you feel comfortable in this overwhelming city, and helps you understand and appreciate the authentic charms of the local community and food. He speaks prefect English and explains things in an easy-to-understand manner, which is extremely helpful when it comes to complex cultural and religious topics. I would definitely recommend Sunil and the company to anyone who wants to explore Nepal in a more cultural and spiritual way!

Great walking tour with knowledgeable guide

Had a great walking tour with Sunil. Learned a heap about the culture and society in Nepal. It was the quiet season so I was the only one on the tour but Sunil ran it anyway. A great way to get oriented in Kathmandu. Highly recommended.

Great walking tour with friendly and patient guide

We enjoyed going off the beaten path and seeing the real Kathmandu and local shopping areas. Our guide, Sunil was a very knowledgeable and friendly person. Would definitely recommend this walking tour to access some difficult to maneuver spots in the city, learn about locals, and see nearby attractions.
