Nepal is a travel destination on the rise. Active holidaymakers go there to discover its range of outdoor activities in The Himalayas while spiritual travellers go to soak up the Buddhist sites and Tibetan culture.
Kathmandu is the country’s capital, just 20 minutes’ drive from Nepal’s only international airport. It’s surrounded by jungle and mountains, enticing visitors looking for trekking and adventure. Within the city you’ll find everything from guesthouses to 5-star hotels, and a wander through the backstreets will show you Kathmandu’s rich cultural heritage.
Cheap flights to Kathmandu land at Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM), located in the Kathmandu Valley. It’s six kilometres from the centre of Kathmandu – around 20 minutes’ taxi ride. The airport is known to be chaotic so pre-arranging an airport transfer with your hotel is a good idea. Alternatively, travellers have three choices for taking a taxi: exit the arrivals terminal and go directly to a taxi driver to arrange a price (ignore any touts trying to get your attention); head outside the airport and flag a local taxi from the main road (this is the cheapest way); or arrange a prepaid taxi. There’s a 24-hour counter inside the Arrivals terminal where you can pay for your taxi – prices are fixed and you’ll receive a voucher to go straight to your driver.
To save even more money, you can also take a local bus if you know the area you need to get to. The bus station is located on the main road outside the airport, past the roundabout.
There is no shortage of taxis once you get to Kathmandu but they are unmetered. As with all areas of Southeast Asia, make sure your exact destination is clear and agree on the price before getting in.
