After breakfast, you will do the sightseeing of Kathmandu and Bhaktapur with a city guide. The former is the city of temple, while the later is the oldest city of Nepal. These cities have lots of historical monuments, so you will visit these monuments selectively.

Not only these, Himalyan Encyclopedia Treks & Adventure  will also provide you an option of visiting Pashupatinath Temple, Monkey Temple, and the places you want to inside the valley.
