Sunrise at Nagarkot - I was fortunate to be assigned Ramsaran Simkhada for this trekking adventure. It felt like two friends taking a little hike in the forest/up the mountains. Ram shared stories of his life in Nepal which was both insightful and entertaining and made for a very fast journey. The day started with an early morning wake up to race to catch the sun breaking over the eastern ridge of the Himalayas. The views were amazing. If you’re coming to Nepal, this should be on your to do list. 100%.

Very pretty sunrise tour with a hike to village outside of the city. I recommend! - Very nice tour where you can see more peaceful area outside of the city. Our guide Pradip was super professional and kind. We also talked a lot about Nepal, so for me it was a highlight of the trip to know more about life here in Nepal. Sunrise was super pretty, the same bridge - very picturesque. The hike was the best when we entered the village and could see local people daily life - forest part was just okay. I think you need to book longer trip and get deeper into the forest, if you really want to explore Nepali nature. We finished the trip around 1PM, but stayed for longer together with our guide. Overall I had a great time and recommend the tour!
