Highly recommended

Published on May, 2025

It was an interesting tour with Shanti, who taught me a lot about Nepal, its culture, and customs. I highly recommend the tour to everyone; our driver also maneuvered us well and safely through the hectic traffic.

If you have time, do it!

Ananta Aryal was an excellent guide. He was very friendly and answered all our questions. Not only was he was very knowledgeable about our specific tour (Chandragiri Cable Car), but he also provided good information for other things we might want to do while in Kathmandu.

Wonderful Shanti the female guide in Nepal

Published on May, 2025

I had the most wonderful guide in Shanti, from the moment I was collected from hotel she explained about culture and history of Nepal, pointing out interesting facts as we drove to the cable car. On arrival we visited the temple and she explained about the gods, the different colours of the prayer flags, the mountain range around the viewing point. As we went up to the Everest viewing point we could not see the range due to the clouds but Shanti pulled out a photograph she had taken on an earlier trip and we could match that to the mountain range. I would recommend anyone travelling to Nepal visit the cable car and ask for Shanti to be your guide.

Great

Ananta was a wonderful guide, very helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed the day, even though the view was blocked by clouds. We would recommend this tour, no queueing for cable cart.

Cable car near Kathmandu

Published on May, 2025

Ananta is an amazing tour guide. Taking the cable car to the mountain near Kathmandu was one of the highlights of my trip. The views were stunning—lush valleys, terraced hillsides, and the distant outline of the Himalayas. But what made the experience truly memorable was the cultural and historical storytelling along the way. As we ascended, I was captivated by the guide’s narration of Nepal’s deep-rooted history, its ancient kingdoms, and the spiritual significance of the mountain. I especially enjoyed learning about local myths and legends—stories passed down through generations that gave the landscape a magical, almost sacred feel. The blend of natural beauty and cultural richness made the ride feel much more than a simple trip up a mountain—it was a journey through Nepal’s soul. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Kathmandu who wants a mix of scenic views and cultural depth.
