Bikram Tamang was an excellent guide. It helped that it was a private tour so the time and pace was my own and we had more time to discuss and for me to ask questions. even as I was overwhelmed with 7 UNESCO sites and their information, the ample time to explain and repeat helped. Even managed to buy a few things where Bikram negotiated the best possible deal for me. I enjoy trips when my guide is personable and really goes above and beyond. Krishna was a very good driver as well and we made maximum use of the time and I was even able to squeeze in some work during the driving. I assume it can be exhausting when you have a lot of people and keep repeating or have one person who kept asking more information which ended up being a discussion. Kudos to the excellent tour.

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.

We had a fantastic Nagarkot sunrise day tour! Even though the sunrise was completely hidden by thick fog—nature has its own plans, after all—the stunning mountain views and serene landscapes that unfolded later made the entire trip well worth it. ​A special shoutout to our guide, who was absolute perfection. They were punctual, highly knowledgeable, and extremely accommodating throughout the day. Their great energy, local insights, and positive attitude kept our spirits high even when the morning sun didn't cooperate. ​If you're looking for a hassle-free and memorable trip to Nagarkot, I highly recommend this tour. Excellent service from start to finish!

It was everything I could hope for and is really an excellent alternative to those who would prefer not to hike. Everything was on time from hotel pick-up to the airport and return. Facilitating with Yeti was smooth. The stewardesses were busy going to each passenger helping identify the mountain ranges. And it was a clear day that was done when others were just waking up. My friends who have seen the photos I took are now considering this option. Great job by everyone. My only two minor comments: I wish the airplane windows were clearer for photo options. Also, when the certificates were handed out, I wish they had written our names instead of us having to fill them out to enhance authenticity. But it’s not enough for me to knock of a star from the experience which was absolutely thrilling.

I booked this hike at the last minute through Epic Adventure, and I’m really glad I did. A big thank you to Shreeram Adhikari and Suren Sharma for making the whole experience so enjoyable. Everything went smoothly from the pickup until the end of the trip. What I liked most was that We watched the sunrise, had breakfast, walked through local villages, saw traditional houses and farmland, went through the forest and crossed the suspension bridge. It felt like getting a little glimpse of many different sides of Nepal. The hike itself was much easier than I expected.The pace was comfortable and there was never any pressure to rush. They were happy to stop whenever I wanted photos or simply wanted to enjoy the view. Both of them were professional, friendly, and fun to spend the day with. If you’re visiting Kathmandu and want something that combines nature, local culture, good views, and an easy hike, I would definitely recommend them. i’m on my way back and feel a blast :)

The best views on a flight i’ve ever seen. This is a once in a lifetime experience as you get to be really close to the mountain range and take it in all of its glory. Even though it wasn’t a completely blue sky you can still see the mountains clearly. The flight attendants are nice and tell you what mountains you’re looking at and ensure safety of everyone. I suggest this company because they pick you up in the morning and makes sure you are first in line to get the good seats. The driver also waits until you’ve landed to bring you back to accommodation which made this experience very convenient for us.

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.

The weather was amazingly clear, and we got a great view of Everest. The plane flew quite close to the Himalayan mountains.

What to know before visiting Kathmandu

What to do in Kathmandu throughout the year

Kathmandu’s busiest bookings on Klook are for Tours, followed by Cultural experiences and Outdoor & sports activities, so the city is best known for guided sightseeing, heritage-focused activities and adventure outdoors. Demand rises through late spring into a clear high season in June and July, and drops to a quiet spell in November, according to Klook booking data. That seasonal rhythm means travellers can plan either for festival and trekking atmosphere in the summer months or a calmer cultural visit in the quieter late-autumn period. Decide whether you want peak-season buzz or quieter exploration.

Based on Klook booking data.

Best months to visit and typical prices

Peak visitor numbers fall in June and July, with the quietest month in November, according to Klook booking data. Prices from July to the following June move independently of demand at times: while July is busy and commands a higher median paid price (typically around PHP 2,260), the overall priciest month is December (typically around PHP 2,438) and the cheapest is June (typically around PHP 833). For lower prices and smaller crowds aim for June or November; for the liveliest atmosphere choose June–July or December for a festive feel.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January About average PHP 2,379
February Quieter than usual PHP 1,784
March Quieter than usual PHP 2,022
April About average PHP 2,319
May Busier than usual PHP 1,724
June Peak demand PHP 833
July Peak demand PHP 2,260
August Quieter than usual PHP 2,022
September About average PHP 2,081
October About average PHP 2,022
November Quieter than usual PHP 1,665
December Quieter than usual PHP 2,438

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Most travellers from the Philippines book fairly close to travel — experiences are often available about 2 days ahead, so you can stay flexible. That said, peak months like June and July are when booking earlier pays, and early planners sometimes secure spots about 8 days out. Use Klook to compare typical prices and lock in favourites a little earlier for travel in high-demand months. Browse Tours and Cultural experiences first, check recent median prices, and book the activities you value most to avoid sell-outs while still keeping some flexibility.
