Beautiful Bhakapur - We went on a half day trip to Bhaktapur and Nagarkot. Bhaktapur was beautiful and interesting....lots of temples and museums and interesting alleys. Not too many tourists, which was nice. The temples were breathtaking, and the art and artisan shops had a great variety of wares....textiles, carvings, knives, paintings, pottery. Our guide, Pradeep, was knowledgeable and kept the tour to a good pace. He was great. Nagarkot was a pretty drive up the hills, but the view was non-existent, as forest fires had created a great deal of haze when we were there. On a clear day would have been amazing, we're told.

Great Mountain & Temple Trip - Deepak was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and conversant in Nepalese history and geography. This is not the right time of year to see the Himalayas but the suspension bridge was awesome.

Perfect getaway from Kathmandu - Exactly what you need if you have a spare day in Kathmandu! See local life and The Himalayas in Nagarkot, explore the Newari old city of Bhaktapur, try local Newari food and learn A LOT. These places a very different from Kathmandu/Lalitpur. I enjoyed learning so much from my guide Rabina! Asked million questions about local culture, all the small details, learnt a lot! Appreciate this opportunity! Very relaxed and peaceful day. Don't forget to have a cup of tea right beside Nagarkot tower (at the entrance stairs)!

Great tour - We liked this tour a lot. You have enough time to explore both Bhaktapur and Nagarkot. We also had Shankar, a great guide who was an important reason to make this tour so enjoyable for us.

Interesting sights with a knowledgeable guide, comfortable vehicle & good driver. - Our guide, Pradeep, was very knowledgeable & engaging. The vehicle was comfortable & Robbie a good driver. We saw many temples, palaces etc & learned much about their history. We then drove to Lower & Upper Nagarkot viewing sights but unfortunately, the sky was very hazy so no views of the Himalayas only the valley hills.

Very average for high price - Nice guide, but tour was nothing special comparing to the relatively high price (120 usd +10 usd entry ticket). I think it depends on the weather conditions a lot. Nagarkot in the foggy day is definitely waste of time.
