Razz is the best guide!!!! - I loved hiking through the villages. Was very peaceful and serene. Sadly, it’s the monsoon so we weren’t able to see the mountains but the hike alone was worth it.

Sunrise and hike - Nagarkot - We booked a private Nagarkot sunrise tour with BreakFree, plus the hike to Changunarayan. It ended up being a cloudy morning, so we didn’t really get the full sunrise, but the trip was still worth it. The hike took about three hours and included crossing a pretty cool 250m suspension bridge along the way. It was an easy walk overall and a really nice way to get a glimpse of local life. Our guide, Razz was great, and our driver, Sujan - super calm with all the crazy traffic.

Wonderful sunrise and walking tours - Razz and Sujan are the perfect guides! The staff were very friendly, patient and helpful. We saw a lot of animals along the way and were particularly surprised. The village residents are warm and friendly, the sunrise is stunning and the hiking experience around the village is superb. It was a memorable and wonderful journey and highly recommended!

A lovely morning stroll - Our guide Deepak was really fun and informative, he was very laid back allowing us to walk at our own pace and full of information regarding Nepal, Hinduism, history, politics and more. The walk and view were beautiful and though it was very cold we arrived early enough to see the mountains before the morning mist and sun began to cover the view. The temple was beautifully decorative and a very interesting experience.

Very good experience! - Very good experience. Our driver and guide were excellent although we didn't have a great view due to the clouds. No fault of the company obviously. Found a great place for breakfast near the temple also. Better to pack your breakfast if you are running a bit late. Highly recommended!

Amazing Walk with an Amazing Guide - This was a wonderfully organized walk. Before we started, Shankar asked about our preferences to make sure the experience matched what we wanted. We had many questions about Nepali culture, and he explained everything in a very engaging and insightful way. He also adjusted to our pace and patiently waited whenever we stopped to take photos
