Mark was out guide for a day in the mountains near Nagarkot. He met us early at the hotel, was nice to wait for us to finish breakfast and we set out. He detailed everything that's planned, was very nice and polite. As we started out he explained things about Nepal and the area we're at along the way. We opted for a shorter hike and he ensured the driver knew where to wait for us. The area was beautiful, Mark knew a lot of detail about the villages and towns along the way. We even stopped to talk to a family and the kids were very cute. After getting to town of Nala we visited few temples and walked around town, and Mark kept providing us lots of info about them. Overall we had a great day, we got a glimpse into the way of life and it was very eye opening. Mark's english is very good and of course that's a huge plus. I'd use him as a guide again and would highly recommend him to other travelers.

Mark was able to explain the significance of the holy places with deep respect. Being aware of our interests he also arranged for us to visit the Baha’i Centre and was tolerant and understanding of other beliefs. He had a wide knowledge of the places we visited and could explain it all very clearly to us in English. Wherever we went he was able to relate to all we came in contact with in a friendly and positive manner. Mark was always concerned for our welfare and called us to ensure that the accommodation was suitable and that all our needs had been met. We are truly indebted to him as he was there for us during and after the earthquake. A most dedicated and professional guide!

We had Mark as our guide for our 4 day trip around Kathmandu (Patan,Nagarkot and Bhaktapur). He is very knowledgeable, ready to explain and flexible. We took a 5 hour hike from Nagarkot down and he is the human GPS, leading us through the valley without needing any maps.
