Ein schöner Tag mit Guide Kapil: Charmant, intelligent und kenntnisreich Wir hatten das Glück, mit unserem Guide Kapil einen perfekten Tag zu verbringen. Er begleitete uns zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten, die auf unserer Wunschliste standen und kannte die Stadt wie seine eigene Westentasche. Kapil beeindruckte uns mit seinem Charme und seiner Intelligenz und konnte uns ausgezeichnete und detaillierte Informationen zu jeder Sehenswürdigkeit geben. Es war faszinierend zu erfahren, dass er sein Wissen auch an Schüler weitergibt und dabei sogar ein Buch über Nepal schreibt. Während wir gemeinsam durch die Gassen schlenderten und plauderten, war Kapil immer angenehm distanziert und hielt sich zurück, wenn wir die Ruhe genießen wollten. Aber zur richtigen Zeit hob er die Distanz wieder auf und lieferte uns weitere Informationen. Dadurch hatten wir die perfekte Balance aus Information und Entspannung. Wir können Kapil als Guide nur wärmstens empfehlen!
