Everything was perfectly arranged—from airport pickup to daily tours. We didn’t have to worry about a thing. Even our optional mountain flight to Everest was handled with ease. It made our vacation truly stress-free.
What I liked most was how well-balanced this tour was. Mornings filled with temples and historic sites, afternoons with relaxing drives and scenic views. The hotel upgrade to 4-star was totally worth it—clean, comfortable, and in great locations. Highly recommend!
What made this tour special was the heart behind it. You could tell the guides genuinely care about their country and their guests. We learned so much about Nepal’s religious harmony and history, especially during the visit to Pashupatinath and Boudhanath.
I was deeply impressed by the living heritage in the Kathmandu Valley. Durbar Square, Swayambhunath, and Boudhanath each told stories centuries old. And just when I thought the tour couldn't get better, we reached Nagarkot—what a view! Shepherd Holidays delivered a flawless itinerary.
I had limited time in Nepal, but this tour packed in so many incredible experiences. From exploring ancient royal courtyards in Patan to sipping tea while watching the Himalayas in Nagarkot, every moment felt special. The guide was deeply knowledgeable and helped us connect with the local culture in a genuine way.
