Taxis to Sarangkot

Hi, have just been reading about travelling in numbers, whether two, three or more in parts of Nepal. I have booked the taxi driver who picked me up outside the public bus park in Pokhara to take me to Sarangkot. Are the taxis generally safe? Have there been any incidents. Am solo female so wondering now if I should have gone through my guesthouse?

Usually no worries. Accidents unlikely. Being groped more. I'd say fine.

Agree with above – For maximum personal safety it would have been better to have had the taxi pick you up at your hotel, but Pokhara is a safe place so you shouldn’t have problems.
Hope you get a clear day and a great sunrise
Best regards

Taxis are generally safe. I myself booked through my guesthouse - Giri and I paid the driver I think Rs 600 only about 2 weeks ago. Advise is leave your hotel at 5 am so you will not be stuck in a traffic jam up in the hill. Enjoy the sunrise and fanstactic views!
