Nepal is known as Mountain Country. Travel
is Challenge in itself. Trekking in Nepal is definitely an adventure. Get
ready for narrow roads, intense traffic, musical horns, and some of the best
views in the world. Nepal has numerous transport options and incredibly
friendly locals helping you to explore the country. The bus network is getting
better and for long distances, they are a great way to get across the country.
By Local Bus: Most
backpackers will opt to travel in Nepal via the long-distance bus ride. Some of Touristic Area such as Pokhara, Lumbini and Chitwan has Tourist Bus, Tourist buses are more facilities than Local Bus. Local Micro/Minibuses are perfect for those short on time.
The drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara
will take anywhere from 6-8 hours. There is a lot of construction on these
single-lane highways, so be preferred for traffic jams.
Minibusses tend to be new, with good
brakes, and A/C and will hold a comfortable maximum of ten people. Although the
drivers will often cram far more people in to make as much money as possible
from one trip.
Alternatively, hop on a tourist coach
if you have a bit more time and want to stop along the way. They take longer
than the minibusses but will stop along the way and trust me; you’ll want to
stop for some of the views.
By Domestic
Flight: For those short on time,
domestic flights are a great way to explore a country and Nepal is no
exception. However, domestic flights in Nepal are notoriously unreliable
due to changing weather conditions so try to be a little flexible! Easily
organized in the country, your accommodation can often book flights for you.
Make sure to grab a window seat so you don’t miss out on the spectacular views,
especially if you are taking the flight from Kathmandu to Lukla.
Car: The car is most Fixable while you are Sightseeing or anywhere you want to go, Make Sure the travel
Company is always fixable for their Client. Ace vision Nepal provide customized
trip in Nepal.
Taxi: Definitely not a rarity in the city and
you’ll be asked if you need a ride before you even start looking. Just be sure
to use a metered taxi or haggle and agree on the price before you get in.
Nepalese taxi drivers have a reputation for touring you around town and offering
to take you to friends’ shops promising good deals.
Be firm with directions and if
you are uncomfortable stopping somewhere, tell them. The Nepalese are extremely
helpful though, even the taxi drivers, so much so they will often agree to take
you to a place, even if they don’t know where it is. Try to have the address in
Nepali available and don’t panic if the driver stops to ask people for
directions.
The
road quality in Nepal is questionable with many tight corners and heavy traffic.
Driving is definitely for experienced bikers. While backpacking in Nepal
I was a passenger on the back of many motorbikes and only drove my own bike in
Pokhara. If you are an experienced driver, traveling to Nepal on a motorbike
will be an awesome adventure. Contact us for your Travel to Nepal. Outdoor Activities in Nepal,Trekking,Tours,Adventure Activities and many more.
