Things to do in Pokhara

I rarely write reviews unless I’m asked to, but this time, I truly feel that my guide Prakash Neupane and porter Narra deserve to be recognized. I recently did a solo trek to ABC from 18–22 September, and they took such good care of me throughout the entire journey. My guide was kind, calm, patient, and incredibly helpful. He always hiked at my pace and stayed behind me to make sure I was safe. During the first 20–30 minutes of the trek, I struggled a bit with the hikking. He told me to take my time. After that, I gradually found my own pace and started to really enjoy hiking. Throughout the whole 5D/4N trek, I felt incredibly comfortable, safe, and well taken care of. Along the way, we even became more like friends rather than just a guide and trekker. And of course, the views at ABC were absolutely amazing! 🏔️✨ I had so many unforgettable memories and I’m very grateful to my guide and porter for making this journey such a wonderful experience. 🤍

The ABC trek was a fantastic experience! My guide, Raj, was excellent and took great care of me throughout the entire journey. Even though the teahouses were mostly fully booked, Raj always managed to secure a room for me when others couldn't. Epic Adventures was also highly professional and responsible; they met with me as soon as I arrived in Kathmandu to explain the itinerary before the trek started👍🏻

The route was very well designed, featuring both paved paths through the forest and more rugged gravel roads, and it even passed through several villages. The only downside was the weather today; the cloudy skies prevented us from seeing the snow-capped mountains. If we had been able to see them, the value for money would have been absolutely exceptional. I recommend sending a message to the company a day in advance to confirm your booking.

Thank you, THRILL HIMALAYA, for arranging our 5-day, 4-night ABC trek with Tilak as our guide. The company was incredibly responsible even before our departure, providing detailed and prompt responses to our inquiries and regularly reminding us about necessary equipment. This made us feel very reassured before we even left. The day before our departure, the guide met us at our hotel and provided us with duffel bags in advance. From day one, we were so grateful for our guide Tilak's leadership. We had no prior mountaineering experience and our physical stamina was relatively low, but the guide patiently accompanied us at our own pace, never rushing us, even when we walked slowly. Although the journey was challenging, there was no pressure, and we are very thankful to the guide and porters for helping us complete the entire trip. Even though we walked slowly, sometimes until dark, they never complained and ensured we reached the teahouses safely. The teahouse environments and food each night were excellent, and we even had a perfect night at the ABC teahouse. Throughout the entire process, we were grateful for their dedication and assistance; they went above and beyond their job duties, providing immense security and encouragement. They also tried their best to meet our needs; out of the four nights, we only had to share a room for one night, which improved the quality of our rest. We were so fortunate to choose THRILL HIMALAYA to help us complete this trek. While the scenery was beautiful, I believe I might have given up halfway without THRILL HIMALAYA's assistance and arrangements. Two days after completing the trek, they even delivered our certificates to the hotel. Everything was perfectly executed, and the arrangements truly exceeded our expectations. Thank you all! If we ever trek in Nepal again, we will only choose you! Thank you, guide Tilak, thank you, baby porter. THRILL HIMALAYA TREKS team is the best!!

Our guide Bidur was amazing! He was so friendly and provided very detailed explanations throughout the tour. It was a truly delightful trip, and he really helped us gain a deeper understanding of Pokhara.😆

The driver was very polite and helpful. The transfer to the hotel was on time, and they even guided us during the tour. The guide wasn't constantly with us, allowing us plenty of free time to explore at our own pace. Although it was the rainy season and we unfortunately couldn't clearly see the sunrise due to clouds and fog, the scenery was incredibly beautiful. For this experience and price, I think it offers excellent value for money.

Luckily I had a great view of sunrise and Mountain though weather was not clear a day before. As it was late monsoon on Nepal. Great Service attitude! Recommended.

I recently took the Sarangkot Sunrise Tour on 24 September, and I had a really pleasant experience. My driver, Chetan, was punctual, even though the weather wasn’t that great that day. He also walked with me to the viewpoint and the tower and patiently waited while I enjoyed the sunrise. He showed me around the area, pointed out the places with beautiful views, and even helped me take some photos. 📸 Even though I joined the tour as a solo traveler, I still had my own time and space to enjoy the experience, while also having someone to accompany me along the way. I would definitely recommend this tour. 😊.

The staff were all incredibly friendly, energetic, and fantastic! Seeing the staff laughing together and getting along so well on the bus ride to the flight location helped ease my pre-flight nerves. Even though I have a fear of heights, the flight was very stable with no turbulence, feeling just like sitting in a chair, and I got to see the most amazing views. My friend encountered a problem, but the staff handled it wonderfully, and I'm very grateful! They also took photos and videos with a GoPro, which made for great memories.
