Fantastic morning excursion - Exceptional experience with brilliant guides Manoj and Sunil, great communication from Map the Himalayas company beforehand confirming timings and pickup location. The sunrise view was incredible and having a cup of chai while watching was great. The walk was a fabulous experience and the guides also took care to ensure we were safe as well. Brilliant driver too and comfortable vehicle- would highly recommend- thank you!!!

Kunjuri temple sunrise hike - This was a very rewarding experience provided by knowledgeable professionals who did everything possible to make this a memorable experience. This 6 hour long day began with pick up at 0500 from our hotel and drop off at 1300. The physical fitness required to complete the trek was well worth the effort.

Kunjapuri Sunrise Tour - Such an absolutely wonderful experience! Kaly and everyone at Mapping the Himalayas did a great job from the booking to the completion of this event. Kaly answered all of my questions as a first time visitor to India and even helped me with a matter involving a local cab company. Watching the sunrise and then catching a glimpse of the Himalayas was breathtaking. Ankush was the best possible hiking/trekking guide I could have asked for. His warm and kind manner made me feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout the whole hike. As a solo female traveler I appreciated these guys so much! Ankush even caught my arm as I slipped on the rocks at one point keeping me from sliding further down. I valued how he shared his knowledge about the local plants, people and customs too. So enjoyed taking a break at the waterfall with my feet in the cool water at the end. This is not a beginner or an easy hike but if you love hiking and being in nature you will love it! I highly recommend Mapping the Himalayas and any of the adventures they offer.

Great tour! - Devesh was a brilliant tour guide! I learnt so much during our walk. We had chai at the top for sunrise and then walked down through beautiful scenery, past local villages etc. I learnt about local life, the flora and fauna and about India tradition and culture generally. Would recommend!

Sunrise at Temple and Hike - Incredible sunrise view. Musafir was a great hiking guide. Saw a couple of villages and waterfall on the way down. This was a great way to spend the morning and a good short excursion.

Beautiful sunrise but challenging hike down - The sunrise was beautiful. The guide was forward thinking and brought rubber mats for us to stand bare footed on the cement floor (we have to take off our shoes at the temple. My friends went hiking whilst the guide took me to Westin hotel to have a nice breakfast as I could not hike due to my fractured elbow. I had a good time at the hotel. However, my friends slipped on the hike as the path mostly gravel. They said the hike definitely not for beginners. The waterfall was OK. The driver and guide were very good
