Kumar Basnet

I am Kumar Basnet, a professional tourism guide with 20 years of experience in Nepal's tourism industry. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience introducing visitors to Nepal's cultural heritage, historic landmarks, and traditional way of life. My main areas of guiding expertise are Kathmandu and Bhaktapur, two of the most culturally significant destinations in the Kathmandu Valley. I enjoy helping travelers discover the history, architecture, religious traditions, and living heritage that make these places unique. I have particular experience with Kathmandu Valley sightseeing, UNESCO World Heritage sites, and walking tours. I aim to make each visit informative and engaging while giving travelers the opportunity to experience the character of Nepal beyond simply visiting individual attractions. As a guide, I believe good guiding is about more than explaining places. It is about understanding what interests each traveler and presenting Nepal's history, culture, and traditions in a clear and approachable way. I work to make tours comfortable, organized, and enjoyable for visitors. With two decades of experience and the ability to communicate in English and French, I welcome travelers who want to explore Kathmandu and Bhaktapur through their heritage, architecture, religious traditions, and local culture.
