7.Half-Day Guided Tour of Bhaktapur

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 13 reviews · 4 hours · from $2Best value

Half day guided tour from Kathmandu to Bhaktapur Durbar Square, UNESCO temples, Newari culture, and Naytpola Temple, with local guide and pickup.

“Disappointing tour. What was advertised as a four hour tour was actually less than an hour and a half in Bhaktapur, not helped by the fact that the driver arrived to pick us up half an hour late. On arrival in Bhaktapur we were handed over to a local guide who was very pleasant, but he seemed more interested in us spending time in shops where the owners attempted to sell us their products rather than actually showing us around the city. Which is a shame as Bhaktapur is very beautiful, certainly more picturesque than Kathmandu. I would not recommend this tour.”
