One of the Highlights of Pokhara - A wonderfully educational tour with a lot of local context and history. I went solo and there was one other person on the trip, so we got to practice some of the Tibetan rug making and had lots of time consulting with the Tibetan doctor. The food was amazing, I would recommend to everyone who is in Pokhara/Lakeside area

Great experience learning about the Tibetans in Nepal - I learned a lot about the Tibetans in Nepal. I especially enjoyed the opportunity to speak with a young monk for about half an hour. It was well worth the time and money.

A must-see experience - Thupten was an amazing guide! In just a short few hours, my group and I learnt so much about Tibetan culture, history and struggle. The Tibetan doctor visit is something we will remember for a long time. Thank you Thupten for your wisdom, passion and knowledge, and thank you for sharing it on your amazing tour!

Do this instead of going by yourself - We are an young Danish couple and found this visit to the Tibitan Refuge Settlement very interesting and as one of the most wholesome experiences to try in Pokhara. We were very glad to hear the stories and explanations by Thupten and would really recommend others to be guided by Thupten to get an extremely great tour.

Tibetan cultural tour with Thupten - Wonderful tour with Thupten. He is a very knowledgeable man and very passionate about Tibetan culture. He knows so much about history but also buddhism. I asked a lot of questions and he answers very patiently and precisely. He speaks very well english, so it was not too difficult for me to understand as a French woman not very fluent in english. Thank you for this very interesting tour !

An excellent tour by a very informative guide. - This was a very informative overview of the Tibetan situation in Nepal. Our guide was extremely thorough. We learned a lot, not only about the Tibetan refugee hisory, but about Tibetan Buddhism in general. Highly recommended. We had not been planning on doing this tour (in fact... hadn't even heard of it) but with some extra time in Pakhora we gave it a try and it was definitely one of the real highlights of our visit.

A learning and cultural experience - The visit was so instructive, it was so nice to discover the Tibetan culture and Bouddhism. I really feel that I learnt a lot thanks to Thukpen. I only put 4 stars for the price, but we have to take in count that it includes : a small bottle of water, a medicine consultation (quick but impressive) and lunch. So despite the price, I still think it's really worth it ! Could recommend !
