Full description
Embark on a 6-hour tour of Patan and Bhaktapur to discover the rich cultural heritage of two separate kingdoms from early times. These medieval cities are filled with age-old palaces, temples, shrines, monasteries, and courtyards. They both offer extensive historical centers and boast otherworldly views, and are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Patan Durbar Square is the main attraction, and it's a bustling square with a museum, palaces, Hindu temples, and ancient courtyards. As you explore the square, you'll discover the intricately carved facades and ornate decorations on the buildings, offering a glimpse into the past glory of the Malla kings. Bhaktapur, located about 12 km from Kathmandu city, has retained its medieval spirit and is often referred to as the "City of Devotees". The atmosphere in Bhaktapur Durbar Square is centuries-old and captivating. Here, you can find the iconic Nyathapole Temple, Golden Gate, 55 Window Palace, and a fascinating museum filled with exquisite art and artifacts. During the tour, your experienced guide will share with you the rich history and unique features of both Patan and Bhaktapur. After a day of exploration, sit back and enjoy a pleasant drive back to your accommodation, reflecting on your enriching experience in these two historic cities.

Nice trip, even though it was a wee bit overpriced to my mind. Shingal (if I spell the name right) was very polite and extremely knowledgeable about the places visited in Patan and Bakhtapur. A lot of details for culture and history buffs. Bakhtapur was great. I could have spent a whole day or at least a half day in that place wandering around or sitting in cafés and restaurants and browsing the markets.
