The views of the Himalayas from the top of the hill were stunning, and the vibe at the temple was unforgettable. Huge thanks to the team for the exceptional service and guidance.

Great 1/2 day Tour, Highly Recommend! - We recommend this trip highly for those looking for a nice half day trip with a fun cable car ride, nice views of the city and surrounding hills and several interesting temple visits. On a day with less haze, views of the Himalayas would have been spectacular. What made the trip really special was our guide Biraj. He was energetic, knowledgeable and really went the extra mile to ensure we were well informed had a good time. Thank you Biraj, Five stars!

Chandragiri hills and zip lining was a really cool experience. The Monkey Temple was so lovely and rich with history, and we learned a lot! We are very happy with this experience, would definitely recommend!

A Great Day out - Brilliant tour with Prakash. I was picked up on time and given a brief overview of the tour ahead. I found Prakash to be polite and engaging throughout the day. He was very insightful about Nepal in general and found myself learning so many things. He answered all the questions I asked him and showed himself to be very knowledgable. Would highly recommend this tour
