★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 100 reviews · from $8Our pick

Sarangkot sunrise and Pokhara highlights with mountain museum, Davis Falls, and Gupteshwor Cave, plus easy hotel pickup from $8.

“Sarankot is a beautiful smaller mountain that overlooks Phewa Tal lake and the Annapurna mountain range. Getting up early to see the sunrise there is really worth it. The pastel purples and pinks as the sun rises and reflects off the snowy Himalayas is breathtaking. I can highly recommend MTK Trekking and the Sarankot Sunrise tour. They are my go to tour booking company I've used them a few times.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 37 reviews · 7 hours · from $8

A budget-friendly 7-hour Pokhara group bus tour hitting Shiva sites, caves, Davis Falls, and the World Peace Pagoda, with time at Phewa Lake.

“I had a lovely man greet me and wait for my bus. From there everything went downhill. I had, possible wrong, expectations that this was a bus a ‘tour’. However. no information about the sights was shared at all. We were simply dropped off to locations and told to be back by a certain time or the bus would leave. This needs to be advertised simply as a bus service.”

“Excellent value. Everything was as described. The bus driver had a hard time finding my hotel, so the company owner hopped on his motorcycle to find it, retrieved me, and then drove me to join the bus. Very friendly and outstanding service. There were no frills on this tour, and that was just fine. The bus host was also friendly and helpful, kept us informed of all logistics.”
