Devi's Falls est une chute d'eau située à Pokhara dans le district de Kaski, au Népal. L'eau forme un tunnel après avoir atteint le fond. Ce tunnel mesure environ 500 pieds de long et passe à 100 pieds sous le niveau du sol. Le 31 juillet 1961, un couple suisse s'est baigné mais la femme s'est noyée dans une fosse à cause du débordement.
La grotte Gupteshwor Mahadev est une grotte située à Pokhara-17, Chhorepatan, district de Kaski, en face de Davis Fall, l'eau de la chute Davis traverse cette grotte. La grotte de Gupteshwor Mahadev est l'une des principales attractions de Pokhara.
Pokhara Shanti Stupa est un monument de style pagode bouddhiste sur la colline d'Anadu de l'ancien comité de développement du village de Pumdi Bhumdi, dans le district de Kaski, au Népal. Shanti Stupa à Pokhara a été construit par le moine Nipponzan-Myōhōji Morioka Sonin avec des partisans locaux sous la direction de Nichidatsu Fujii, un moine bouddhiste et le fondateur de Nipponzan-Myōhōji. Shanti est un mot sanskrit signifiant paix, également largement utilisé dans les langues népalaise et hindi, et Shanti Stupa signifie pagode de la paix. Le sanctuaire Shanti Stupa a été construit comme un symbole de paix. Situé à 1100 mètres d'altitude sur la colline d'Anadu, Nichidatsu Fujii a posé la première pierre avec les reliques du Bouddha le 12 septembre 1973.[1][2] Le Népal compte deux des quatre-vingts pagodes de la paix au monde : Shanti Stupa à Lumbini, lieu de naissance du Bouddha et Shanti Stupa à Pokhara. Shanti Stupa à Pokhara est également devenu une attraction touristique. Il offre une vue panoramique sur la chaîne des Annapurnas, la ville de Pokhara et le lac Fewa

Yuma was a really good guide. We visited the Peace stupa, a waterfall and cave which had a temple inside and then a hanging bridge. We got to the lake in time to see a Hindu ceremony and Yuma kindly stayed so that I could see it.
The driver and the Guide Yuma, made all the difference. His knowledge and service was amazing. He provided water and had an umbrella ready when needed. He explained clearly in English about each of the sites visited and also told a little bit about what’s to come.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🙏 We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Pokhara 5 Hours Tour and had a great experience with our team. It’s especially wonderful to know that Yuma’s knowledge, clear explanations, and thoughtful service made your trip even more memorable. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you again for another amazing experience in Nepal! 😊🏔️
It was a relaxing trip and we saw some great sights. My wife and I were taken around by Yamu and he was delightful and made us feel like we can relax and enjoy the sights. I say do this trip if you need to quickly see all the top spots in a day if this is a quick stop over
Thank you for your kind Feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the tour and had a relaxing experience in Pokhara. Yamu will be happy to hear your feedback. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to host you again!
I went with my boyfriend on a weekend trip to Pokhara. Our driver was Yamu, we had a fantastic day! The car was very clean and the AC was much appreciated on a warm day. We got to see a lot all at once and it was a great way to explore while having all of the traveling accommodations worked out for you. Would highly recommend!
Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so glad you and your boyfriend had a fantastic day exploring Pokhara with Yamu. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the comfort of the ride and were able to see so much in a short time. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for another adventure in Nepal!
Phewa Lake Boating I opted for a one-hour private boat ride on Phewa Lake, and it was incredibly peaceful. We circled the iconic Tal Barahi Temple, which sits on an island and is only accessible by boat. The ride cost 900 NPR and was a relaxing way to start the day. World Peace Pagoda To reach the World Peace Pagoda, you can hike for 1–2 hours or drive most of the way, as I did. From the parking area, there’s a short stair climb to the top. Unfortunately, it was cloudy during my visit, so the mountain and city views were limited. Visitors are asked to remove their shoes for the upper level, I skipped it this due to the weather. Monks may be meditating on-site, adding to the serene atmosphere. Devi’s Falls We continued to Devi's Falls, oddly located along a main road in town. It was under renovation, with visible construction work underway to expand the site. Water flow was minimal this time of year, but for 100 NPR, it was still worth a quick stop, especially for a fun photo with the artificial mountain backdrop. Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave Just across the street, Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave was a highlight. Entry was 100 NPR, and the experience was unique from the start, even passing through a cattle-style gate if you choose. Inside, there’s an optional (and amusing) extra fee to see a mechanical cow “produce” milk. The cave involves a long descent via steps, where photos are restricted inside until the lowest point. Enroute down devotees remove their shoes and pray at a shrine inside. Interestingly, water from Devi’s Falls flows into the cave, connecting the two sites. International Mountain Museum Our final stop was the International Mountain Museum. It’s set within spacious grounds, with a short walk to the main building. The museum includes a 20-minute film and well-curated exhibits on indigenous Himalayan communities, mountaineering history, peaks over 8,000 meters, gear, clothing, and geology. It’s informative and thoughtfully presented. Overall Experience I really enjoyed having a private driver, Santosh, who doubled as a guide. He spoke good English, drove safely, and made the day seamless, dropping me at each entrance while he parked. He was knowledgeable, patient, and never rushed me. Traveling privately meant I could move at my own faster pace. All in all, it was a well-organized and enjoyable day covering the key attraction highlights. Plan to budget an additional 1,500–2,000 NPR for entrance fees on top of transportation.
Thank you for the detailed review! We’re glad you had a smooth and enjoyable day exploring Pokhara with Santosh. Happy to hear you liked the lake, cultural sites, and museums at your own pace. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again in Nepal!
Great day! All ypu need to see in 1 day with time left over to shop. Bidur was an amazing guide and the drive was excellent as well. Had a detour to Helping Hands (quality items made by people with disabilities). Had lunch on top of the mountain with spectacular views. Very informative and fun filled day! (Lots of steps to the cave and back so just mind how you go)
Thank you, Andrea! We’re so happy to hear you had an amazing day and enjoyed seeing so much of Pokhara in one trip. Bidur will be delighted to hear your kind words. Thanks for sharing the helpful tip as well, and we hope to welcome you back again 😊
This was a reasonable way to see the main sites of the city. It did not take anywhere near 5 hours, and I have to say that I found my female guide quite hard to understand at times. This trip probably depends very much on who is leading it - but the things I saw were interesting, if not quite brief.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the sites interesting. We apologize if communication was sometimes difficult and for any mismatch in timing. We take all comments seriously and will work on improving clarity and pacing for future guests.
Our driver/tour guide Pujan was punctual and courteous. Our private tour and itinerary of 5 sites/ 5 hours in Pokhara provided a very good overview of the major sites in Pokhara without feeling rushed. Overall good value per price point even though entrance fees and tour guide tip are not included, but explained in the disclosures.
Hi Marsha, thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed the 5-hour tour and that Pujan’s punctuality and courtesy helped make the experience smooth and enjoyable. It’s great to know the itinerary gave you a solid overview of Pokhara without feeling rushed. We truly appreciate you choosing our tour and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again on your next visit!
This was a great way to spend a few hours and get to see some things that would be difficult to take a taxi to and get back. Pujan was my driver/guide and he was great. His English was exceptional, he was very knowledgeable and a safe driver. The Devis Falls and cave were interesting. The Museum of Nepali Mountaineering was informative with lots of photos of the world's highest peaks. The views from the Peace Stupa were absolutely amazing the morning we went. You could see all the mountains. Highly recommend this tour
Guide Pujan Thapa was excellent! Highly knowledgeable (not only knew who George Mallory was, but took me right to his picture in the Mountaineering museum), patient (I struggled with the 200 steps to the Peace Temple!) and flexible (I cut the cave short - was fading from an early sunset rise). Highly recommended! Tour itself was well designed with different experiences and a good "sample" of Pokhara sights
