We had Kapil as our guide through Kathmandu for one day. He took us to four important places and could tell us a lot about them and about the history... read more of Nepal. He was very kind and made sure the tour was pleasant for us. I would definitely recommend getting him as a guide through Kathmandu!
Easy and informative guided tour about Nepalese & Kathmandu culture - Kapil is a nice and informative guy, knows a lot about the city, history, culture and religion. You can ask him nearly anything and he seemed to be interested in... read more us as well, and told us about his personal life as well. He connects easily with people around the area, gets conversations going, which makes the trip really nice. I would totally recommend the daily tour through Kathmandu as well.
