Overview

Often described by travelers as “Heaven on Earth,"  Pokhara is a must-visit place for everyone in this world. Pokhara Valley visit will remain incomplete without sightseeing in Pokhara. The Pokhara is an enchanting natural paradise that proffers heavenly beauty and serenity for curious travelers. The wonderful mountains, tranquil lakes, huge caves, and underground waterfalls are the main attractions for tourists, and religious temples, stupas, monasteries, the International Mountaineering Museum, and people's culture and lifestyle are the main attractions. Pokhara is accessible by a drive of 200 km from Kathmandu by Luxuries tourist bus or 20 minutes by plane. 

Pokhara is famous for its surrounding lakes and amazing views of the Annapurna range, including Annapurna I and VI, Annapurna South, and Machhapuchhare (Fish Tail). During the sunrise and sunset, you can see the reflection of the mountains in Fewa Lake, truly a paradise for a photographer. On the Pokhara Valley Sightseeing Tour, you will get half an hour's drive or a three-hour trek through the jungle, which takes you to the stunning viewpoint hill station Sarangkot. From here you can enjoy watching the sunrise as you get up close and personal with the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri range of mountains, and if you dare, you can take the plunge and launch yourself by paraglide to soar with the eagles.

About a ten-minute drive from the lakeside to Devis Falls gives you the sight of the river plunging through a narrow ravine and disappearing underground. And outside the falls, you can go underground and explore the limestone Gupteswar Mahadev caves. The International Mountaineering Museum of Pokhara gives sights of culture and the way of life of Nepal’s ethnic groups, mountaineering and mountaineers in Nepal, a complete geographical history of the Himalayas, various climbing peaks in Nepal, Buddhist religion, and Tibetan people, as well as environmental projects to clean up mountain areas and conservation programs.

The sightseeing tour in Pokhara would be a wonderful experience, and you will visit several Tibetan refugee camps, monasteries, and markets. It is possible to visit these places by bicycle or taxi and talk to the friendly Tibetan people and listen to their stories of exile and life in Tibet. You can spend a day wandering around the markets, tasting Tibetan food, and even trying butter tea if you dare! While we are coming back to Kathmandu, we will visit the “Mankamana” temple, dedicated to the Goddess of the Hindus. We “Nepal Mother House Treks and Expedition (P.) Ltd.” arrange your Pokhara Sightseeing Tour and can customize it according to your desire. We offer you this trip with our professional tour guide for your more information.
