Half-Day Tibetan Cultural Experience in Pokhara
Choose between a half-day, sunrise, morning, or afternoon tour of Tibetan Pokhara!
Discover the rich Tibetan culture and heritage in Pokhara, Nepal with the unique Tibetan Encounter tours, guided by the passionate and knowledgeable Mr. Thupten. As a Tibetan himself, with a family background of escaping Tibet in 1959, he is dedicated to educating clients about the Tibetan settlements in Pokhara, Nepal. He is the only Tibetan offering these types of tours, and his passion for preserving and sharing the Tibetan culture is evident in every aspect of the tour.
Our tours are not just sightseeing experiences, but educational and cultural journeys that allow you to delve deeper into the heart of Tibetan culture. On our half-day tour, Mr. Thupten will guide you through the Pokhara valley’s Tibetan refugee settlements, providing insight into how the Tibetan people have preserved their language, identity, and Buddhist culture. He will also take you through the meanings of Buddhist symbols such as prayer wheels, flags, and stupas, and introduce you to a young Buddhist monk, who will share their personal journey and the monastic life.
You will also visit a monastery and have the opportunity to attend a group pooja (prayer chanting) in the morning or afternoon, accompanied by traditional horns, drums, and other instruments. Please note that the Sunrise tour does not include prayer chanting. To complete your cultural immersion, you will enjoy a Tibetan breakfast in the morning or evening snacks with a local family, where you will taste traditional Tibetan foods like tsampa, butter tea, and Tibetan bread.
