Fantastic 5.0
I booked the tour about a week in advance, and it was very reassuring to be able to communicate directly with the tour operator via WhatsApp beforehand. Their responses were very prompt, and they not only sent the e-ticket but also genuinely helped with rescheduling options in case of bad weather cancellations, which allowed me to feel at ease on the day of the tour. On the day, the pickup arrived 10 minutes after the scheduled time, but it seemed that 10 minutes later was the actual pickup time, so we arrived at the airport without any issues. Regarding seating, although everyone was guaranteed a window seat, it was a bit disappointing that I unfortunately ended up with a seat directly over the wing when checking in at the airport counter. Also, it was quite cloudy on the morning of the tour, and I was worried it might be canceled, but after waiting for the weather to clear at the airport, we took off safely. Once airborne, I was incredibly moved to witness the magnificent, clear view of Mount Everest with not a single cloud in sight—it was beyond words. The wing, which I had been concerned about, didn't turn out to be a significant obstruction to the view. After the flight, I received a commemorative certificate, and I was able to meet up with the driver smoothly for the return trip. The support, from pre-tour assistance to on-the-day follow-up, was excellent, and I'm truly glad I went. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the spectacular views of the Himalayas up close.

the coaches are so nice and professional 🪂my little sis was afraid of it at the beginning, but the coaches encouraged her and gave her clear information and instructions. My sis and me enjoyed the flight so much! The view was great! It’s cold though, better bring a jacket or hoodie!!

It's truly a very unique experience with the Shaman. Thanks to the translation from Prash , we are able to understand the history of Shamanism and also better understand ourselves. Healing process is comfortable and we feel relaxed afterwards.

It was absoiutely worth it! Visiting seven World Heritage Sites in just a single day sounded ambitious, but it was an incredible and seamless experience. Because it's the non-peak season, the tour ended up being just me and one other traveler instead of a large group. The pickup vehicle was exceptionally clean, modern, and comfortable, making the day's travel a breeze. Our tour guide, Sumit, was fantastic. He provided detailed and engaging explanations at every stop, giving me a deep appreciation and understanding of the history behind all seven heritage sites. On top of that, Sumit was incredibly attentive and went out of his way to help take wonderful photos. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area—and if you get Sumit as your guide, you're in for an absolute treat!

I have always been curious about Nepal and its beauty. this trip has finally answered that question of mine and grow my curiousity even further to know more about Nepal and its beauty. I will definitely be back. truly enjoyed the trip because of Epic Adventures Pvt Ltd guide, Mr Gyanashwor and his two porters, Sanjaya and Vhola. They have made the trip a lot more enjoyable with their hospitality to welcome foreigners like myself to experience their culture. Love every bit of it.

On time pick up. Our guide Bikram is knowledgeable and driver Suraj is safe in driving making the day tour smooth and comfortable. Hiking speed just nice for me and my wife. Hike terrain is easy to navigate. Weather is kind to us although we did not manage to see the sun raise and Himalaya mountains due to heavy fog.

Our visit to Chandragiri Hills was excellent. Although cloud cover and fog prevented us from seeing Kathmandu, our guide Bikram more than compensated with his extensive knowledge and engaging storytelling. He provided fascinating insights into the site's historical significance, shared detailed explanations of Buddhism and Hinduism, and thoughtfully explained how the two traditions interact and coexist. Bikram's expertise and enthusiasm made the experience memorable. We highly recommend him as a tour guide.

What to know before visiting Kathmandu

Kathmandu at a glance: what to expect

Kathmandu’s Klook bookings are led by tours, cultural experiences and outdoor activities, so the city suits travellers who want history, temples and guided exploration. Demand builds through the late spring into a clear peak in July, while quieter months arrive in late autumn and winter.

Best months to visit and how prices behave

According to Klook booking data the busiest month is July, and the quietest month is November. Prices move differently through the year: they drift down after the mid-year peak and hit their lowest point in June, while December shows the highest typical prices. Travelers seeking lower prices and smaller crowds should consider June or the quieter late-autumn months; those after the full peak-season atmosphere will find July most lively. Note the divergence around mid-year: demand peaks in July but prices actually reach their cheapest point in June before rising again into December.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Most travellers from the Philippines tend to finalise plans only a few days ahead, and Klook data shows bookings commonly made around two days in advance with very last-minute options available. If you prefer flexibility, many experiences here can be booked a day or two out; if you’re travelling in July, consider booking a little earlier since demand is higher then. Use Klook to compare tours and cultural experiences so you can lock in options that suit your schedule without overcommitting.
