Kathmandu
Trekking capital of the world. Chaotic, ancient, thrilling.
Travellers come here for culture, adventure, nature and meeting people.
When to go
Aim for February, March and January. Think twice about June, July and August — the wettest stretch of the year.

What it costs
Per person per day — a bed, food, getting around, and a share of one paid thing every third day.
These are GoReady's own estimates, not quotes. Nothing here is a price a provider has offered you — search the dates you actually want to see real ones.
Eating
814 places to eat and drink are mapped within walking distance of the centre — 540 restaurants, 222 cafés and 52 bars and pubs. 97% carry no chain or brand operator.
Of the 136 that record what they serve, the most common are:
- indian 26
- chinese 21
- asian 20
- breakfast 15
- noodles 15
- burger 13
16 record vegetarian options and 6 record vegan ones.
