From KTM airport in Kathmandu to city center
Kathmandu,
Nepal
Public transportation from Kathmandu airport
The first and most popular option is to take a cab. Taxis are readily available both inside and outside of the airport terminal. You can either flag one down on the street or book one in advance. The average fare into the city center is around 500 NPR, which is about 5 $US dollars.
If you're looking for a cheaper option, you can take one of the local buses. These are not as organized as the city buses and can be a bit more of a challenge to navigate if you're not familiar with the area. The average fare for a local bus is around 10 NPR, but it can be a thriving experience.
Finally, if you want to ride in style, you can book a private car. This is the most expensive option, but it's also the most convenient. You can book a private car in advance or hail one from the street. The average fare for a private car is around 1000 NPR.
