Must-do activity in Pokhara, Nepal

Published on Apr, 2025

We had a beautiful morning learning about Tibetan culture and history with Thupten. We highly recommend booking one of his tours. He was very knowledgeable and the tour allowed us to have traditional breakfast at a Tibetan family home, attend morning prayer and chanting with Monks, and speak 1:1 with a monk about his life experiences. 5 stars! A must-do activity when visiting Pokhara that is suitable in any weather. Booking was really easy through WhatsApp.

Tibetan Cultural Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Thupten was a very informational guide and was extremely hospitable. His deep knowledge of tibetan culture and buddhism was eye opening, and changed my outlook on life. I have gained a greater understanding of tebetan culture, and I have agained a deeper appreciation for the lifestyle and history of Tibet. His fluency in english made the entire experience easily digestible, and he too is well equipped with a wealth of knowledge to satisfy all the questions we had along the way. Thank you for the enjoyable experience. It is definitely a must go for all that are looking to visit Pokhara to immerse yourselves in the rich culture as majestic as the mountains flanking the region.

Excellent Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

This tour was amazing! I read about it in the lonely planet and was looking for some cultural thing to do around Pokhara so went by there office and booked the morning tour for the next day. Thupten, the guide, was just wonderful. He was able to tell me a lot of things about the history of Tibet, current situation and Buddhism in general. I didn’t expect a lot but got one of the best tours I have ever done. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for cultural education about Tibet and Buddhism.

Brilliant Guide, Extremely Thorough Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Our guide had been giving this tour for 14 years. He was a very knowledgable, learned man who ran a very educational tour. * Morning Prayer with the Monks: For me this was both moving and fascinating to witness * Breakfast with a local family -- delicious and very educational! * Talking one on one with a monk -- what a once in a lifetime experience. We had a full hour and could ask whatever questions we wished * Learning about Tibetan medicine, also a one on one conversation -- interesting * Touring the village -- extremely educational with pictures about the settlement, how it changed over time, the state ot Tibetan refugees today, lovely handicrafts I can't recommend this tour enough, definitely a highlight of our trip to Nepal
