Overview
Kathmandu Pokhara City Tour ( Kathmandu / Pokhara) will give you a superb blend of culture and historical sightseeing in Kathmandu Valley and relaxing exploration around Pokhara.
Situated 200km west of Kathmandu, Pokhara valley is 827m above sea level. This is one of the picturesque spots of Nepal, thanks to Its charming lakes, laid-back atmosphere, and magnificent mountain views of the Annapurna range. Pokhara Tour is perfect for fishing, boating, swimming, and even paragliding if the weather is good. There is also a great air connection between Kathmandu and Pokhara.
The short Pokhara tour commences as you land at the international airport of Kathmandu. On the first day, we move from Kathmandu to Pokhara Sightseeing and explore the places around the Lakeside in the evening. The charm of the Lakeside and its melodious music is second to none. On the next day, we explore its major touristic destination. We take our time to visit this city’s renowned places, including falls, mountains, museums, and lakes before we return to Kathmandu from Pokhara Tour and depart for our other destination.
A day trekking trip around Pokhara supplements the Nepal Sightseeing City Tour ( Kathmandu / Pokhara), e.g. Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, to fully appreciate and enjoy the lush greens, Tibetan-style villages and panoramic view of Annapurna peaks. Many also prefer to add the visit to Chitwan Safari on their way between Kathmandu and Pokhara Tour Package; or take a 30-40 minute mountain flight back to Kathmandu to gain a great view of the Himalayan mountains.
Nepal Sightseeing City Tour is one of Nepal’s most famous short holiday tours in groups and private tours. A customized itinerary with customized travel and accommodation plan is also available upon request.

Additional Info
Which is better, Kathmandu or Pokhara?
For tourists, we suggest that Pokhara is way more fun than Kathmandu. The peaceful nature and charm of Pokhara are beautiful.
Kathmandu is the capital of Nepal, the administration centre. So, it’s crowded and noisy in comparison to Pokhara, which is a way quieter city.
Views: Kathmandu valley has 7 World Heritages Sites within a small area. You can visit all these in Kathmandu, Patan, and Bhaktapur quickly. And Pokhara is where you are supposed to relax and have fun.
Why is Pokhara Beautiful?
Pokhara is a naturally blessed city in the west, often known as the “City of lakes”. The panorama of mountains, the beauty of pristine lakes, and the colourful life around the lakeside make it the best tour in Nepal. One also can witness the range of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Machapuchhre in the beautiful lake of Phewa. There are many freaky caves, stunning waterfalls, cultural heritages, and museums we can explore daily. Moreover, Pokhara is a hub for adventure freaks with games like Paragliding, Bungee, mountain biking, hot air balloon, rafting, and more. Also, it’s the starting point of many great trekking trails worldwide, such as Annapurna base camp, Annapurna Circuit, Dhaulagiri trek, Mardi Himal trek, Mustang Trek, Poonhill- Ghandruk trek.
What is the Best time to visit Pokhara?
Pokhara Sightseeing tour is possible any time of the year. Even the Winter in Pokhara is warm and pleasing, with the mountains full of thick snow. Sometimes, the high hills around the valley also receive snow. Then there’s Autumn (September to October) when the sky is clear, and the lakes look bluish and stunning. The spring is also fun, with beautiful wildflowers and green surroundings. But Pokhara sometimes receives rainfall in the evening of spring. So, it’s also suitable for the Annapurna Base Camp trek and Annapurna Circuit Trek.
Lastly, there’s the monsoon. The evening rain in the monsoon is quite heavy, but the mornings are straightforward and pleasing. Even the rainfall is soothing. And since we will be staying in a luxurious hotel and driving in a private car, the weather has little impact on your Pokhara tour. Nepalese New year and International New Year are the busiest time due to the celebration of the street festival in Pokhara.
You can visit Pokhara according to your timetable- the weather in Pokhara is pleasing throughout the year. Just let MyEverestTrip know when you want to book the sightseeing in Pokhara.
Culture and people of Pokhara
Originally, Pokhara was home to the Gurung and Magar people, who followed the Buddhist tradition. It has gained rich cultural diversity with the people of Brahmins, Kshetras, Newars, Thakalis, Rai, and more. Along with Hindus and Buddhists, you can also witness a small Muslim community here. The Tal Barahi and Bindabanisi temples hold great importance to Hindus worldwide. Many pilgrims travel from India to Pokhara to explore these religious spots.
