Such an interesting experience - Santosh is the guide to book with for this tour. He was knowledgeable with not only religion and history, but also culture and food. We had many questions and he answered them all to the best of his ability. The tour itself is eye opening and opens the door to different cultural perspectives. I would highly recommend!!

Highly recommend! - Our tour of Pashupatinath and Boudhanath was great, largely thanks to our guide Santosh! When we mentioned wanting to see the aarati ceremony, he adjusted our tour schedule to accommodate this special experience. Santosh's knowledge of both Hinduism and Buddhism was impressive - he answered all our questions thoughtfully and provided fascinating insights we would have missed on our own. He brought these sacred sites to life with his explanations of the rituals, architecture, and spiritual significance. The tour was perfectly paced, allowing us to fully absorb both locations while learning about their cultural importance. If you're looking for a meaningful introduction to Kathmandu's religious heritage, this tour is highly recommended!

Super interesting tour - Santos is an amazing guide, we made a lot of questions and he responded all. It’s a good idea having a guide in the religious areas for understanding the meaning of the ceremonies and all the symbolism.

THE BEST tour - This tour has been one of the best experiences I have had in Nepal so far. My guide, Santosh, was incredibly helpful from the start, and during the tour he was not only professional, extremely knowledgeable and engaging, but also super attentive to my requests. If you are thinking of visiting Kathmandu, I 100% recommend you to rely on him.

really nice tour - I was very excited about Bajey's tour, and I would really recommend it if you would like to know a lot about Nepal's culture and Hinduism. I really liked that he had a lot to say and had answers to all our questions. You noticed very clearly that he knew a lot about what he was telling. I also liked that he paid close attention to the fact that the whole group was still there after, for example, a busy crossing. There was also a moment when I didn’t want to join the tour because I found the cremations too intense to see, but I wanted to hear the information he told the rest, then he later went back to tell me in person what he had told the rest before. I really liked that. I would definitely take another tour of Bajey:)
