Watch sunrise over the Annapurna range, visit Bindabasini Temple, Davis Falls, Gupteshwor Cave, and Pokhara’s Mountain Museum for $8.

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.”

Pick a trailhead, a carved square or a jungle river.
