    I saw all these places in one day. Bajra yagani Ashur cave Dashinkali Sasnarayan (yangalasor) Swyambhunath Padmasambhav statue What an incredible day! I only had a week in Katmandu and decided the best way to see it was to choose this tour group and see as much as I could by taking daily tours. Umesh and Bandhu were the best! Be prepared to see things you have never seen before. From sacrifices to cremation ceremonies. The beauty and wonder of this country is to be experienced. Thanks to this tour group you will see Nepal and the people of Nepal. Thank you.
