Trip Reviews
After our trek to the Himalayas, we hadn’t got much chance to visit some famous heritage sites of Kathmandu, which was possible only one day before our departure. This tour was organized by Trekking Team Group. We really enjoyed this one day trip as we visited places like Boudhanath, Pashupatinath and Bhaktapur. This amazing sites are listed in UNESCO heritage sites, shows ancient art of Nepal. Culture of Nepal can be clearly seen from these sites. Worthy one day trip.

Additional Information
This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the destinations on this site are in remote, underdeveloped areas where unpredictability is the norm. Despite careful planning and organization, our adventure trips can’t be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places we visit lack the emergency health and safety services you’re used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is often uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotel standards may not match those of the West.
If you’re not prepared for this, you shouldn’t travel with us. The unpredictability also means that our itineraries are statements of intent, not contractual obligations. Factors such as weather, transport difficulties, and political instability might require us to change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any necessary changes after consulting with the group. Such changes are rarely significant, and we always do our best to minimize their impact. However, we cannot be held responsible for changes or delays, regardless of their cause.
