Kathmandu Durbar Square, gelegen in het hart van de hoofdstad, is een historisch paleiscomplex en staat op de werelderfgoedlijst van UNESCO. Dit plein diende als koninklijk paleis voor de Malla-koningen en later de Sjah-dynastie. Het is een schatkamer van kunst en cultuur, met prachtige pagodes, ingewikkeld gesneden houten constructies, binnenplaatsen en oude tempels. De Kumari Ghar, de residentie van de Levende Godin Kumari, is een prominente attractie. Bezoekers kunnen zich tijdens het verkennen van deze site onderdompelen in de rijke geschiedenis van Nepal.
Patan Durbar Square ligt in de stad Patan, op slechts een klein eindje rijden van Kathmandu. Het is een andere site die op de Werelderfgoedlijst van UNESCO staat en waar de voortreffelijke architectuur en cultuur van Newar te zien zijn. Het plein beschikt over een verzameling goed bewaarde tempels, heiligdommen en binnenplaatsen, allemaal versierd met ingewikkeld houtwerk en stenen beelden. Het Patan Museum in het complex is een schatkamer van oude kunstvoorwerpen en kunst. Patan Durbar Square biedt een vredige en meeslepende ervaring in het hart van een traditionele Newar-stad.
Bhaktapur Durbar Square, gelegen in de charmante stad Bhaktapur, is een bewijs van de middeleeuwse grandeur van Nepal.

Our tour guide was wonderful and gave us great insight into all of the places we visited! Our driver was also excellent. However, I think this tour was wayyy too much for one day. Plus Bhaktapur Durbar Square is very far away and we were in traffic forever going and coming back so we didn’t really get to do much while there (mainly because we were exhausted and many things were closed). I’d recommend people do Bhaktapur Durbar Square as it’s own tour or maybe start with it to avoid evening traffic.
Namaste Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad you enjoyed the guidance and service provided by our team. We also appreciate your suggestions, which help us improve future experiences. We look forward to welcoming you again for a more relaxed and rewarding tour in the Himalayas. Thanks and Regards, Team Shepherd Holidays
This was a great tour. My guide, Umesh was really knowledgeable and I learned a lot about the sites we saw. I never felt rushed in exploring. He also gave me ample time to look at shops or take photos. Lunch was great and had a nice view. Best tour guide!!!
Namaste, Thank you for your kind words. We’re happy to hear that Umesh made your Durbar Square tour informative and relaxed, allowing you time to explore and enjoy the views during lunch. We appreciate your positive feedback. Thank you very much for this opportunity and we look forward to hosting you again in near future for other Himalayan experiences. Thank you.
Ananta made my first day in Kathmandu an unforgettable experience. He was so knowledgeable about every site we visited, and was just an all around great and friendly person. I feel more connected to Kathmandu and to Nepal because of his guidance. Bijay was also an expert driver for our tour!
Namaste! Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re delighted that your first day in Kathmandu with Ananta and Bijay was such a memorable and meaningful experience. It’s great to hear you felt more connected to the city and its heritage. We hope to welcome you back soon for more incredible adventures in the Himalayas! Thank you again.
This was a great tour. My guide Ananda explained everything about the Palace Squares and we visited hands on demonstrations of pottery making, wood carvings and even singing bowls. Our driver Bijay made me feel safe the whole trip. We were going up windy roads and was raining at times, but drive was so enjoyable. I would recommend taking this tour. Having a guide makes such a difference, especially at places like Bhaktapur that are spread out over a large area.
Namaste and warm greetings from the team at Shepherd Holidays! Thank you so much for your kind review. We're glad you had a wonderful time exploring the Three Durbar Squares with Ananda and felt safe and comfortable with Bijay, even through the winding roads and rain! Your appreciation for the hands-on experiences and cultural insights means a lot to us. We’d love to welcome you back again for more enriching journeys—perhaps even a trek to Annapurna, Everest or another cultural adventure across Nepal. 🙏
We loved the place, so we decided to go again. The experience was great, and Bandu’s driving skills are totally amazing. Highly recommended!

This was a great six hour trip both a mix of walking and driving. I really felt like I saw so much of Kathmandu both from the car and of course, walking the three squares of Dubar. My guides name was Ananta - he was fantastic. He is such a font of knowledge with respect to all the history surrounding the temples. Ananta was kind, courteous and always ensured my safety in the busy narrow streets. And wow, what can I say about the driver Bijaya - his skillful navigation around the streets of Kathmandu was extremely impressive. This team is a powerhouse and I thoroughly recommend this trip, particularly if you’re interested in the history of Kathmandu.
Hi, Namaste from Shepherd Holidays Thank you so much for your kind words! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the tour and had a great experience with Ananta and Bijaya. They truly are a fantastic team, and we’ll be sure to pass along your appreciation. We’re grateful for your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Nepal in the future! Warm regards, Shepherd Holidays Team
Super introduction to Kathmandu! I arrived on Saturday and booked a half-day tour for Sunday. The tour guide, Sarita Karki, was very knowledgeable and could break down the incredible history into clear time periods. Our driver was insightful on current events, economics, and international relations. I learned as much in our drive between sights as I did at the sights. Lovely relaxing informative first day.

It was a perfect day.

The guide Rajan was very informative and very helpful. He went out of his way to ensure the tour matched my requests. The company went above and beyond to make my visit memorable.
Rajan was a very knowledgeable and informative guide. He kindly adjusted the tour to allow a visit to an additional museum at my request. Throughout the trip Rajan was focused on my welfare and enjoyment.
