It looms 36 meters high and presents one of the most fascinating specimens of stupa design. Boudhanath is also known as Khasti, or dew drops, after an account that builders had to use dew to mix the mortar as Kathmandu was suffering from a severe drought during the construction of Bouddhanath. 2.Pasupatinath Temple: Pashupatinath is one of the most sacred Hindu shrines in the world and lies 5 km east of the city center. The richly ornamented pagoda houses the sacred Linga, or phallic symbol, of Lord Shiva. Chronicles indicate the temple’s existence prior to 400 AD. Devotees can be seen taking ritual dips in the holy Bagmati River flowing beside the temple. 3.Patan Darbar Square: Patan Durbar Square is an enchanting combination of palace buildings, artistic courtyards, and graceful pagoda temples. The former royal palace complex is the center of Patan’s religious and social life and houses a museum containing an array of bronze statues and religious objects. One remarkable monument here is a 17th-century temple dedicated to the Hindu god Krishna, built entirely of stone. 4.Swayambhunath Stupa: The Monkey Temple (World Heritage Site), watches over the valley from the top of a hillock on its western side. The huge stupa is one of the holiest Buddhist sites in Nepal and its establishment is linked to the creation of the Kathmandu Valley out of a primordial lake. Swayambhu is also known as Samhengu and the Monkey temple because of the countless monkeys living in the premises

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- P578JMmonikam0 contributionsHimalayas with the best Agency i Nepal ❤️Amazing trek and the highest level of support and organisation! ❤️ Me and my husband we visted Himalayas for 2nd time, first we did ACT solo (no guide). We decided to go along Manaslu Circuit Trek this time. It was amazing: weather, views, people in the mountains, our Guide, Karma ❤️❤️❤️, and our Porter, Bupen❤️❤️❤️. The region is slightly different than ACT, the life seems to be more difficult, the goods are transported using mules, but in the end this is one of lifetime adventure even for people who travel a lot to such remote parts of the world. An owner of Agency - Bishnu and his team were very supportive from the very beginning, in planning phase, permits, transportation, and provided us great people to accompany us along the MCT trek. At the farewell in Dharepani, where we decided to continue along the Annapurna Circuit route, it was a bit difficult to say goodbye to Karma 💔 and Bupen 💔. Wondergul guys, and we wish them all the best! 🙏 During our last week, we decided to visit Chitwan, and Bishnu organised for us everything again while we were still trekking in the mountains. It was not a problem, for example, to organize another jeep safari to other part of the jungle, instead of an elephant safari, and he was happy to assist. At the end of our visit of Nepal, Bishnu invited us for farewell dinner in Katmandu. Lastly, we forgot our sleeping bags from the hotel in Kathmandu on the day of departure flight. The Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure agency assisted in sending them back to Europe. We highly recommend these people, as they are honest, competent, and humble at the same time.Written May 30, 2024
- 20mateuszp0 contributionsUnforgettable trek around Manaslu & ACTMe and my wife visted Nepal for 2nd time after 2 years when we did ACT solo (w/o guide). This time, we decided to go along Manaslu Circuit Trek. It was spectacular: weather, views, people in the mountains, our Guide, Karma, and our Porter, Bupen. The region is slightly different than ACT, the life seems to be more difficult, the goods are transported using mules, but in the end this is one of lifetime adventure even for people who travel a lot to such remote parts of the world. Bishnu and his agency were very supportive from the very beginning, in planning phase, permits, transportation, and provided us great people to accompany us along the MCT trek. We had enough flexibility along the trek to adjust tempo, distances, places that we wanted to stay, which is not common, as we've seen in other groups (guides pushing tourists forward independently of i.e. heavy rain). At the farewell in Dharepani, where we decided to continue along the Annapurna Circuit route, it was a bit difficult to say goodbye to Karma and Bupen. Great guys, and I wish them all the best! during our last week, we decided to visit Chitwan, and Bishnu organised for us everything again while we were still trekking in the mountains.

- 215vaughanf0 contributionsAbsolutely recommend for small personal tour. Worth the moneyJust back in from a great day out using himalayas sanctuary adventure tours service. What can I say. Bishnu the owner met us at the lobby of our hotel to make sure we got in the right car for the day. Good start. The driver delivered us safely to the chindarayam cable car. There was no pressure to be racing back. It was very relaxed and easy. We organised a time for the pickup. The driver was there smiling exactly where we agreed. They even gave us a complimentary stop off at the.monkey temple on the way home which was unexpected but a great touch as a personal service. Once again there was no pressure or rush. We agreed a time for pickup and return to hotel and all as above went seamlessly. Would I recommend. Absolutely yes. No hidden surprises. No hidden fees. Just great service from a friendly small tour operator. Well done!!Written May 22, 2024
- 410shahilp0 contributionsThrillingWhat a day in Phu Village! While doing the Annapurna Circuit Trek in 2023, I learned about the Nar Phu Valley. When I read about it I couldn't wait to get back to Nepal. Finally, this year I made it back to do the trek! It definitely exceeded my expectations. On our acclimatization day in Phu village, we had such an amazing time sightseeing around and spending time with the local people. The experience taught me to be content with the things that I have. Thank you Kishwor for arranging such a great trip to Nar Phu Valley and special thanks to our guides Dorje & Manga for taking care of us the entire trip. Again, thanks to the Breeze Adventure team for a great trip in Nepal. Looking forward to seeing soon for another trek - maybe Kanchenjunga North Base Camp Trek next time!Written May 5, 2024

- Scenic710810 contributionsAwesome ABC trek - March 2024.The idea of ABC trek started before 2020 and Finally became a reality in March 2024. Three of us who went to engineering school many eons ago picked Bishnu as our guide based on a very good small trek experience one of us had with him on a previous visit to Nepal last year. We had several calls with our tour guide over several months prior to the trek and he answered many questions very honestly that boosted our confidence in him, and we committed to this trek. We were warmly welcomed at Kathmandu airport by our tour guide and team on March 23, 2024. Prior to embarking on the trek, we were briefed on some changes to the daily trek that our tour guide had custom tailored based on our age and abilities. Our tour guide was very attentive to our needs and abilities and made very wise adjustments as we progressed. When it rained and snowed along the way, he guided us through all of it making sure we didn’t fall and get injured on the way. At each stop along the way the team made sure we got our meals before they ate. During the whole 9 days we felt we were part of their. At various overnight stays, we all played card games and really bonded like brothers. We could not have than this trek without his expertise and guidance. I highly recommend this company if you are planning a trek to ABC or any other adventures in Nepal.Written April 22, 2024

- 102gbs0 contributionsAbC - Trek of a lifetime!If you are ever considering a trek in the Himalayas, you should reach out to Bishnu Bhatta of the Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure Pvt. Limited. Three of us, average trekkers who are also seniors, reached out to him because of a very positive experience one of us had. Bishnu took it from there. He tailored the trip to ABC in a way that gave us the confidence that made our trip memorable. We were grateful that he was our guide. He was emotionally in tune with how we felt and knew was needed to do to make the trip a success. He made adjustments as needed. The places he chose for us to stay overnight were very appropriate for our needs. The porters he hired, Bhupen and Bishnu, were a great duo who worked seamlessly with him and us. Looking back, I believe I could not have done it without his meticulous planning and assistance. Safety precautions he took for us bearing in mind our age were truly appreciated! If you are considering a trek in the Himalayas, it will be a blessing to have Bishnu Bhatta and Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure tours on your side! Attached are some memorable pictures we took.

- 125enidk0 contributionsIncredible experience, thanks to Third Rock AdventuresWe had a spectacular 15 days with our Third Rock Adventures guide, Surya, and porter, Sanker. There were clear blue skies most mornings, allowing us to view amazing scenery throughout the trek. Surya kept us informed on everything we were looking at, as well as some basic stories from Buddhism and Hinduism, so that we knew more about what we were seeing in the temples and monasteries. He speaks English very well, so we could converse easily, enabling us to learn about Nepal and the Nepalese people. Surya went beyond his guiding role with his interesting lessons, and helping me get through a tough day when I felt unwell. Sanker always greeted us at our teahouses with a big smile and helpful hand. Once again, with the superior Third Rock Adventures staff, I felt like the luckiest client on the trail.Written April 3, 2024
- chinmoyd6990 contributionsExcellent Experience!Bishbu Bhatta proved to be an invaluable asset during our time of urgency. Amidst the rush of our Manaslu Circuit trek, we reached out with limited time to spare. They swiftly organised everything overnight, all at a very reasonable cost. Safety precautions were meticulously taken care of and the trek was a great success. Pitam bhai was an amazing guide. During our trek, an earthquake happened and they contacted our families immediately about our safety to ensure full transparency and support. Thanks bro for everything!Written February 23, 2024
- D8890JVashleyo0 contributionsEBC - 12 daysFantastic 12 day EBC trek with Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure.

- hirohisas20230 contributionsI highly recommend Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure.First of all, I would like to thank Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure for providing such a wonderful journey. At the age of 72, I wanted to see Mt. Everest for myself. I compared several agents and finally I selected Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure's "Everest Panorama Trek.". My choice paid off. Leaving Japan: October 28, 2023 ~ Return to Japan: November 15, 2023 I. Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure "Quick response" is noteworthy. During business hours, I usually received a response within one hour. Bishnu Bhatta (CEO) was concerned about my health and came to check on me every morning at breakfast while I was in a hotel in Kathmandu. He bought me a SIM so I could contact him anytime, but as the size didn't fit, I couldn't use it. But I was happy with his consideration. Since my flight departed at 11:15 p.m., he negotiated with the hotel to let me use the room free of charge until 9 p.m. II. 8 days Trekking My guide Pancha and the porter Hira were excellent. Pancha walked a little ahead of me and looked back at me frequently, checking my pace and matching me. Hira walked right behind me and I felt like I was being guarded. Pancha prepared a fruit plate after every dinner. I was glad to be able to eat fruit while trekking. I was able to enjoy the view of Everest (8848m), Lhotse (8516m), and Ama Dablam (6856m) from the Everest View Hotel. At the Everest View Hotel, I was tired so Pancha suggested a short route. And thanks to the short route, I made it back to Lukla safely. III. Kathmandu The following activities were held in Kathmandu. All of these were well prepared and everything went well. Meeting at the airport (I received a pretty flower necklace.) Chandragiri Hills sightseeing Nepali dinner while watching Nepali dance Sightseeing to 4 World Heritage Sites Seeing off at the airport (I received a Nepalese hat and scarf. These would be my good memory.) I highly recommend Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure. Hirohisa SuzukiWritten November 20, 2023
- Kathryn Grace T0 contributionsPerfect for Solo Female TravelersI am very pleased with my experience exploring Nepal for a week thanks to Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure. The owner Bishnu Bhatta personally answered all my enquiries in a timely manner even before I came to Nepal. I requested to have a photographer while exploring Kathmandu sights and to experience paragliding while in Pokhara. Bishnu organized and incorporated those requests into my itinerary and they both exceeded my expectations. When I got to Nepal, Bishnu would message me on WhatsApp every day to check on me making sure that everything was going smoothly according to my itinerary. This made me feel secure since I was traveling solo. I was placed in comfortable hotels where I felt safe at all times. I had an amazing personal driver named Bhubi who drove me all over Kathmandu, Chitwan, and Pokhara for a week. He was not only professional but also very kind. He went out of his way to accompany me to sights and take my photos instead of just waiting in the car which I really appreciated. I highly recommend this company to anyone wanting to explore Nepal, you would not regret it.Written November 1, 2023
- Shelleylikestotravel0 contributionsAustralian Base Camp - 5 DayThis is a quick review as I am still travelling and want to write a more detailed one when I get home and have absorbed the amazing trek I just completed with Bishnu and Bhupen (our wonderful porter). Please take this advice and if you are considering a trek you should go through this company (go direct). You will not be disappointed - Bishnu is caring, interested in people, knowledgeable, fun and is rightly proud of his company and ensuring visitors have a wonderful experience. The communication prior to coming to Nepal was comforting, as was meeting Bishnu the evening before. I had a wonderful trek to Australian Base Camp. I am a bit older and the stairs were a challenge but these two gentlemen were considerate and allowed me to go at my pace with absolutely no pressure and without making me feel foolish. I will write another review later about the actual experience (which has been one of the best I’ve had anywhere I’ve travelled). But do not hesitate to use Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure. Photos attached are my own from the trek.Written October 16, 2023
