Licensed heritage guide for the Kathmandu Valley
I have guided the seven UNESCO monument zones of the Kathmandu Valley for eleven years, most of it for small private groups. My background is in Newar art history, so the walks lean into craft, iconography and the families still working in Patan's metal quarter. I also handle airport pickups and hospital escorts for older travellers.

Landed at 10 p.m. exhausted and someone was standing there with my name. Worth every dollar. The gear negotiation saved us about $120 between two of us.

Solo female traveller, first time in Nepal. The orientation walk meant I felt confident in Thamel by the same evening. Highly recommend for a first visit.

Anish is the reason to book this. He knew the family in the bronze workshop by name, and they let us watch a pour. Three days felt like a week in the best way.

Boudhanath at dusk was the highlight of our whole month in Asia. Well-paced, never rushed, and the hotel was much better than I expected at this price.

Excellent guiding and genuinely good food. Docking one star only because day 3 starts very early and we would have liked a heads-up on how cold the sunrise is in January.
