Travel to Kathmandu

For a unique, cultural experience, Kathmandu is a wonderful vacation destination. The capital of Nepal, this city offers almost 2,000 years of history and culture to visitors. Orbitz.com can help find cheap flights to Kathmandu as well as deals on hotels and rental cars.

Airports in Kathmandu

This capital city and its surrounding areas are served by the Tribhuvan International Airport. Since Nepal is a landlocked Himalayan country, air travel is the easiest way to get in and out of the city. More than 25 airlines have service at Tribhuvan International Airport, which is approximately 4 miles from the city center. More than three million passengers use the airport each year.

From the airport, many hotels offer complimentary pick up and delivery. Taxis are also available; you will need to negotiate your rate with the driver beforehand as meters are rarely used. If you would prefer to avoid negotiations, use either the booth inside or stand outside the airport to order a prepaid taxi. This option will cost slightly more, but may be worth it to avoid the hassle of bargaining. Bus service is also available from the airport and is fairly cheap. If your travels take you outside of Kathmandu, bus service will likely be available to your destination. However, poor roadways mean that bus travel can be slow and very uncomfortable.

Attractions in Kathmandu

Fortunately, there is more than enough to keep you busy within the city of Kathmandu. Travel by foot is possible but not always comfortable. Taxis and rickshaws are available to take you to different areas of the city, where you can then walk around by foot to enjoy the sites. With its rich Buddhist and Hindu populations, Kathmandu offers many religious sites. The Swayambhu is a Buddhist temple overlooking the city, and Durbar Square is located in the heart of Kathmandu Valley. Many different festivals take place year-round in the city.

Unlike much of Nepal, Kathmandu enjoys a fairly pleasant climate. In the summer months of May through September, temperatures average in the low 80s Fahrenheit. Winter temperatures usually stay in the mid-30s Fahrenheit. Bring a raincoat or avoid the city during July and August, when monsoons bring huge amounts of rain to the city.

Kathmandu is Waiting for You

With so many historical and cultural sites to see and visit in Kathmandu, the opportunity for an unforgettable vacation is in your hands. Orbitz.com can help you plan everything to make your trip easy and to ensure you get the best deals. When you use Orbitz for cheap flights to Kathmandu and finding a hotel, your time can be spent plotting out which sites to visit instead of worrying about the logistics of your travel.
