    We had a wonderful Annapurna mountain flight arranged by Eyes On Nepal (Siddhartha) from Pokhara. Despite the flight being brief and the aircraft being small, the view was magnificent. We were fortunate enough to witness numerous high mountains, including Annapurna and Fishtail. This is one of the best activities I recommend to anyone visiting Pokhara.
