Monkey temple and Kritipur tour - Thank you to Mr. Prakash for the tour of the monkey temple and Kritipur. The detailed information provided and care taken of me was excellent. The afternoon (04 Oct 25) the weather was inclement and was just post political disruption so the cable car was not available so they arranged alternative events for me at short notice so that I could make the very best of the short time I had available. Would recommend the company and Mr. Prakash.

Wonderful day with Prakash with additional trip to Lalitpur - A really great day out with Prakash Aryal on this tour. Prakash was a very good guide - his extended knowledge of local culture and the history of Nepal complimented everything we saw. The skies were blue and everything was set for a good day. Monkey Temple was a pleasure with views and ambience. The Chandragiri Hills and gondola ride only made things better as we saw across to both Everest and Annapurna and there were other various activities going on at the summit. We finished the day with a follow-on and additional visit to Lalitpur and the Palace of Patan as we went into the evening. Prakash opened our eyes to Nepal and the Nepalese people and the great heritage of this beautiful community.

Excellent tour - We took this tour with Cordial Trek Pvt, our guide was Biraj. He was very knowledgeable, pleasant, good English speaking. I never felt rushed during our walk around the Monkey Temple. The views from the Chandigiri Hills were amazing. We were fortunate to have clear skies. Himalayas mountain range is amazing and beautiful.

Great day at Chandragiri and Monkey Temples - I had a great day with Biraj from Cordial Trek Pvt Ltd. Who operate today’s tour. He met me at my hotel with reduced my stress over having to manage navigating the Kathmandu traffic which could only be described as harrowing. We first saw the Monkey Temple and then moved on to the cable Car and tour of Chandragiri Temple. Biraj is very fluent in English and is very k owledgeable on his the subject matter of the sites we visited . We also connected on other topics and had a g r wat day all around. Well done Biraj.

Cable Car and hilltop adventure - Fantastic tour guide!! The hill and the activities on the top were awesome. We had to schedule later in the day which left us with a bit of fog/earlier is better. Overall still a great tour! The cable car is great too!
