We had a lovely morning spent with our delightful guide Pooza and driver. Pooza told us lots of interesting facts and her knowledge of the temples and stupas is very good. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. Thank you Pooza for the laughter and joy you brought us x

Our guide, Karmma, was excellent! We enjoyed every place visited. The two stupas was amazing, and the monastery is beatifull. He explained us about the history of every place. Thanks Karmma For all the attentions to us.

I went for this tour with guide Karma, he was very professional and knowledgeable. In the monastery you can meditate for almost 1 hour, and it was mild blowing experience. I highly recommend this tour!

Really enjoyed the trip. The Stupas were beautiful, very enlightening and did some meditation in the monastery. Pooja was an excellent guide and I would request her again.

We had the best day with Miss Pooja, who is an excellent guide. The Stupas and the Monastery are spectacular and well worth a visit.
