What I thought started as a tour ended up being just me and my guide, Mani - and what an absolute legend he was!!
We wandered through the heart of Old Kathmandu, away from the main tourist paths and into ancient courtyards, bustling markets, Buddhist shrines, many dating back centuries. I loved seeing how traditions sit side-by-side throughout the city, woven into everyday life.
We explored Kathmandu Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and I even got to see a living goddess - the Kumari. Incredible to witness a tradition that has been part of Kathmandu’s cultural history for centuries.
One of the things that really struck me was seeing the impact of the 2015 earthquake. So many of these beautiful historic buildings and temples were devastated and have had to be painstakingly rebuilt and restored. Mani was super knowledgeable and provided just the right amount of information needed to develop an understanding of the history and culture of this beautiful city.
He was also forthcoming with great suggestions for a solo traveller like myself to experience the local life.
And then Mani absolutely made my day by taking me for a proper cup of Himalayan coffee. Delicious !! Another great day in this beautiful, and fascinating city. Great tour - 100% recommend for all.

Exceptional Walking Tour
My tour went super enjoyable with my experienced guide Mani, who was very knowledgeable about all cultural things, which really enriched my experience and he was open to all kind of questions. I was guided to small alleys and encountered daily life of Nepalese that usual visitors may seldom have chance to see. Something unexpected happened before my tour and I really appreciated Three Jewels to accommodate my special need. Highly recommend them if you are looking for something exceptional.

You're so kind.
I stayed in Tameru for four days. As I was traveling alone, I was anxious and lacking knowledge, so I joined this tour. The tour was very intense, and it went around efficiently, explaining a lot. They helped me a lot with everything I wanted to know and was having trouble with, even if it was about something other than what I was visiting on tour. I've seen many different guides in different countries, but I've never been so kind. I hope to revisit Nepal again soon to participate in another tour. Thank you very much.

Highly Recommend!
I had such a fun and educational day with my tour guide, Amber. I had the chance to see Kumari, the living goddess, and enjoyed delicious street food as well as Nepali and Indian sweets at a hidden gem of a shop. This tour really deepened my understanding of Nepal's religion and history. I shared with Amber where I had already visited (Pokhara and Bandipur), and he made connections, helping me understand the significance of those places in a new light. I highly recommend this tour—it truly makes every temple and view more meaningful and contextual!

One of a kind city tour in Kathmandu
This was a one of a kind city tour in Kathmandu. I discovered the neighbourhoods where tourist do not come in, visited several temples and saw the living goddess Kumari at the former royal palace. Other sights included local medicine plant stores, pottery workshops and public baths. My guide Amber was very kind, knowledgeable and able to answer all my questions. At the end of the trip, I had dal bhat which is a delicious traditional meal in Nepal. I heartfully recommend this tour and guide, if you want to experience Kathmandu off the beaten track.

Perfect tour to get a bit of everything; the musts and some places you would have never thought of.
I am really glad I did this tour. It perfectly combines some of the must-see popular places in Kathmandu with strolls down the lesser-path streets. Which was a perfect, much-preferred way of travel for me. Especially if someone has limited time. I was presented with much history and information to help me understand Nepal as I embark on a two-month trip here. And we closed it off nicely with a great meal at the end of the tour. Highly recommend.
