About Pokhara Valley Tour

Our Pokhara Valley Tour features Nepal’s most popular touristic destination and one of the most scenic valleys in Nepal. On this thrilling tour, we make a journey to the highlights and attractions of this lush valley with snowy Himalaya soaring to the north. Pokhara is 200 km (125 mi) west of Kathmandu and nearby is a large lake. The magnificent surroundings of mountains and lake make Pokhara a must-visit for every tourist in Nepal.

The Pokhara valley sightseeing tour begins with a pickup from your hotel and a charming drive to the ridge top Peace Pagoda (also known as Shanti Stupa). This Buddhist shrine stands out from all over the valley and was built with Japanese support. If views are clear, the scenery of a lake sparkling below the Himalayan range will be an unforgettable highlight of the tour. The most prominent peak of all overlooking Pokhara is called Fishtail Peak or Machhapuchhre in Nepali. Only a single peak of twin peaks can be seen from Pokhara and the trademark ‘fishtail’ isn’t seen from inside the Valley.

Pokhara is well-known for adventure activities and paragliding and ultra-lite flights are common and the wings splash the air with color. Pokhara is also the beginning point for some of the most popular treks in Nepal including the Annapurna Circuit and the Annapurna Sanctuary.  

The climate is milder than Kathmandu in Pokhara which is lower in elevation and also one of the wettest places in Nepal. Tour highlights include a visit to the thrilling Seti Gandaki gorge that passes right through the middle of the Pokhara, Devi's Falls waterfall , Mahendra Cave as well as the Mountaineering Museum and Tibetan refugee camps with souvenir handicrafts on sale.  We also visit Pokhara’s most famous temple, Vindhyabasini on a hill top overlooking the city. It is sacred to Hindus and the preferred place for marriage ceremonies.

Our Pokhara valley tour covers everything from religious sites to natural treasures with informative descriptions by our specialist, a resident and seasoned guide from Pokhara Valley.

Best Seasons

Spring (March to May) and Autumn (September to November) are the best months for travelling in Nepal. Where normally days are sunny, temperature is perfect, sky is clear and Mountain remains crystal. This tour can be done in Monsoon (June to August ) and Winter (December to February) but you should not expect the great weather and Mountain view.

Ground Transportation

Highway in Nepal are safe, however sometime transport can be halted due to landslide, strike or by political unrest. Add a cushion of a few extra days in your onward travel schedule, advised as a margin of safety for your international flight from Nepal. We therefore advise that you schedule at least an extra day cushion in your itinerary to avoid conflicts with international flights out of Nepal. In that case, High Camp Adventure can arrange activities with your additional days in Kathmandu before your flight home.
