Wonderful Tour - highly recommended! - I went on this Tour spontaneously after doing a free Walking Tour in Kathmandu First. This experience was truly stunning and the Moment of the Sunset with all the Himalaya mountain range in Front of you is Just incredible! We did a little Hike for approximately 2,5h Afterwards and my Guide showed me Lots of little mountain villages and told me many Stories and facts about the culture and History of this Region. If you dont want to do the Hiking you can also skip this Part or Just do half of the hike. We also went for a local breakfast which was super tasty and stopped to See Bakhtapur on the way Back. It was a perfect Tour and I would really recommend it to anyone!

It was truly a wonderful day exploring the serene hills of Nagarkot, the Changu Narayan Suspension Bridge & Bhaktapur. - Sobit is such lovely young man. He was very polite and helpful and had lots of expert knowledge about Kathmandu, and wider Nepal. He, was a very good driver.

an amazing trip, definitely will come back - I want to sincerely thank Sobit for the organization! everything was on the highest level: from accommodation to the guiding. he told me everything about Nepali culture, knew answers on all my questions about temples etc.Sudan Karki was my guide for a 3-day trek, he was very nice and optimistic, helped with everything, served food and was really kind. with him you won’t get bored during your trip, knows everything about mountains, highly recommend him as a guide! After a trek we went to Chitwan, where a guide Harry was able to notice animals from a mile and recognized types of birds only by the sounds they made, that’s impressive. Sobit is always ready to answer my messages and help me to solve any problems. 11/10, i’m more than satisfied with this trip. i’m sure i’ll come back and ask Bald Himalaya to organize one more trip for me. thank again!

Beautiful Nagarkot Sunrise Tour with Great Hospitality - I am Basanta, a Nepali who has been living in Portugal for 17 years, and I returned to Nepal last April (2024) for a memorable experience with Bold Himalaya's guide, Sobit. The Nagarkot sunrise tour was truly mesmerizing, with breathtaking views of the snow-capped Himalayan range that I still vividly recall. The hospitality provided by Sobit was exceptional—warm and welcoming throughout the journey. After soaking in the stunning scenery at Nagarkot, we returned to Bhaktapur, where Sobit shared fascinating insights into its rich history. His detailed explanations made the experience even more enriching.

Kathmandu to discover - Beautiful day, despite the splashy rain typical of here!
Sobit proved to be a very knowledgeable and helpful Guide, he introduced us to a super characteristic Kathmandu and full of wonders!
From the local Point of Sale, to the gorgeous buildings and stunning views from Monkey Temple!
We then had lunch with him in a typical Nepalese restaurant, all very delicious!
This day will remain for us an indelible memory of this country to discover!

Outstanding trip - Met Sobit through his brother Suresh during a recent visit to Nepal. We did a small trek with an overnight to Nagarkot with a stop to Bhaktapur on the way back to Kathmandu. Sobit is very knowledgeable about Nepal's fauna and flora, as well as Nepal's history. During the trek, the views of the Himalaya peaks started to come into view. We stayed at the Viewpoint Hotel and caught sunset and sunrise. The next morning, we hiked to a lookout tower with the best views yet. The trekking part of the trip ended with a pleasant and informative stroll through the countryside.
We concluded the trip with a history lesson at Bhaktapur. This was a nice was to close out our time together by seeing some truly amazing Nepalese history.
All during our two days together, Sobit was very attentive to anything I might have needed. In fact, he personally saw me off to the airport and provided a parting gift of a Nepalese hat that I mentioned liking - a very thoughtful gesture.
Really can't say enough positive things about Sobit and the two-day experience. Highly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to use Bold Himalaya again.
