I took a day tour of Kathmandu. Bose the tour operator, contacted me the previous day and kept me informed, so i would be prepared. KApil, the guide was punctual. He explained things in great detail. He did not rush me at any site. As a single lady traveler, i felt very safe.

Our guide was very good. He was very knowledgeable and showed us everything except the pottery section as the driver was late and our lunch was very late so we had to miss it. Apart from that very enjoyable

Amazing city! Sadly the day was cloudy and we could not see the mountains but that isn’t the tour guide’s fault. Was pleased with the knowledge and professionalism of the guide.

Dipesh was my guide again to these beautiful sites. Similar to Kathmandu but architecture exquisitely detailed. Break Free Adventures was amazing with allowing Dipesh to be my guide again.

Well executed trip from a logistics perspective - was picked up from the hotel on time, in a clean car with water. My guide Neeraj was very accomodating with timing changes. Neeraj was very knowledgeable about the local history and a nice guy to hang out with for 6hrs. Highly recommended for trav...
