Nagarkot zonsopkomst bekijken en wandeltocht van een dag in Kathmandu

Te bewolkt om de zonsopgang te zien, maar het uitzicht op de vallei was prachtig en perfect weer om de berg af te lopen.

Mooie ervaring. Shihir was onze gids, die geweldig gezelschap was. Heeft ons goed begeleid tijdens de route, vriendelijk om mee te praten en zijn kennis te delen over de verschillende plaatsen die we bezochten. De wandeling was gemakkelijk, gaat door een aantal prachtige uitzichten en bossen. Het was geweldig. Alleen voor Viator vond ik het een beetje prijzig.

Deze trek was een geweldige ervaring. Sunries over de Himalaya met een gemakkelijke wandeling door de vallei

Had a great time. The sunrise was pure magic. And the walk down the hill was filed with breathtaking scenery and cute baby animals.

Amazing tour with an amazing guide! Make sure you wrap up warm! The walk is the best bit! Very informative!

Great experience. A short hike and temple visit. Guide was super friendly and had great English. Went the extra mile to make sure i enjoyed every minute.

This day trip was the very first thing we did when we arrived in Nepal, and it was one of the very best things we did. Yes - it was a very early start but watching the sunrise was spectacular! After watching the sunrise we stopped for breakfast (very yummy) and then had a short hike across the countryside which was very pleasant indeed! Our guide and driver were exceptional - so knowledgeable- so friendly. Cannot recommend this highly enough!

First and foremost if you book this tour expect a high chance of not seeing the sunrise or even the mountain range. My guide told me that (mid-October) out of the 4 days he did the sunrise tour only 1 of those days was clear enough for a view. I did not set all of my expectations on the sunrise and view so I was not too disappointed. The trip started with the driver and my guide (Madan) picked me up at my hotel at 4:20am. We took a very bumpy ride to Nagarkot (don't expect to nap on the way there!) and arrived about 20-30 minutes before sunrise. As it was foggy, we went into the village and had breakfast (not included in the booking). Madan was nice enough to lend me cash since I didn't have any on me at the time. I paid him back at the end of the day. After breakfast and Madan and the driver took a smoke break, we started the walk. If you're a fast walker, it could take 1.5 hours but if you top and take your time like me to take photos and chat with Madan it could take 2.5-3 hours. I was expecting a hike through a small trail but actually we just walked through the villages the whole time. You get to see how people like in the hills, children going to school, and lots of farm animals! We also stopped at a recently build Buddhist monument with a great view of the hills and valley and afterwards a Hindu temple before meeting up with the driver. Madan and I had some great discussion and he answered all of my questions and was easy to understand. The driver then took us a few kilometers to a more touristic town (Madan paid for the entrance) with Hindu temples. The drive was beautiful and the driver was kind enough to stop when I was taking my photos! If we had more time, you could stop and buy some things but we were all a bit tired at the end so we did not stay long there before heading back to a lot of traffic jams in Kathmandu. They were also kind enough to drop me off near Thamel instead of my hotel when I asked. Overall I would recommend this tour or the tour without the sunrise (if you want a bit more sleep) if you are looking for experience to see how people in the hills live and want to get out of the busy capital for a day. The hike is also very easy!

Sunrise was beautiful, then we strolled down hill through mountain villages and got a real glimpse into Nepal village life. A very enjoyable few hours. Bidur our guide was great.

Nice Hiking and easy one :), we have enjoy amzing views and the traditional life on the village while heading down from Nagarkot. Guider has explained us about Nepal's life, culture and religions, it was quite interesting. The only thing i didnt like, it was that the guider was like pushing us too much to go or stop only in specific store for people he knew; even when we understand you guys are supporting each other; sometime the tourists/people just need to make a quick stop for water, regarless is we are close or far from your preferred place. Also we really apprettiated all the religions explanations but for us it was sometimes too much, kind of fanatic and on top not respectfull at all with other belivings, even when we are open minded and not attached to any religion, for any other tourist or people could be offensive and not nice at all. The people working in this touristic field need to understand that we should be open and respectful about other cultures, religions, etc. I like to trave a lot to lear about other culture, reigions etc.; but when the conversation turns into fanatism or lack of respect about others, I completely loose my attention to the guider, as for me is not interesting anymore, specially when you want to demostrate that a culture/reigion is better than another; i will respect your opinion but my interest for your explanation or conversation is gone, as i will not keep same motivation to listen, it's a shame. Appart from that, the experience it was really good.
