Is there a chance of getting altitude sickness in Kathmandu?

Not really. Kathmandu is about 1,400 meters (4,600 feet) above sea level, which is low enough that altitude sickness is not a common problem. But make sure to drink enough water to help your body get used to the mountain air.

Is it safe to drink tap water?

No. You should only drink bottled mineral water to stay safe.

How much walking do you really have to do?

You will be walking through big squares and temple complexes that are part of the heritage. There are about 365 steps to get to Swayambhunath. It doesn't require a lot of fitness. Carry walking shoes that are comfortable.

Is it okay to bring leather things inside?

Most Hindu temples, especially Pashupatinath, do not allow leather items at all. You might have to leave your leather belts, wallets and bags outside or at a special counter.

Is there a dress code for temples?

Yes. Men and women should both wear clothes that are modest and cover their knees and shoulders. Don't wear sleeveless tops, shorts or clothes that are too tight. A light scarf or shawl is useful for quickly covering up.

What should I bring for the weather?

Layering is important because Kathmandu has a mild climate. For the day, bring light cotton clothes, and for the mornings and evenings, bring a light jacket or jumper. You need a heavy jacket if you go in the winter (December to February).

Can I use Indian money in Kathmandu?

Yes, most places will accept Indian Rupee (INR) notes worth ₹100 or less. But notes of denomination ₹200, ₹500 and ₹2,000 are generally not acceptable. When you get there, it's best to change some money into Nepalese Rupees (NPR) for small purchases.

Do Indians need a visa to go to Nepal?

No, Indian citizens don't need a visa. They can fly or drive to Nepal with a valid Indian Passport or an original voter ID card.

Kathmandu Valley Tour Package

Explore the divinity of Kathmandu’s sacred shrines through an exclusive 4-day package planned by Trip to Temples for pilgrims who want to experience spirituality at a relaxed pace. These centuries-old temples and stupas are sacred sites that make you feel the aura of spirituality. Since the Kathmandu Valley is accessible across all seasons and does not involve any trekking or high-altitude travel, there are no special travel seasons.

Months from March to May and September to November are, however, the best time, as daytime temperatures range between 15°C and 25°C and evenings can feel slightly cool. Monsoon months and winters are also possible for travel, though rain or colder mornings may affect comfort. This tour is suitable for all age groups, including families and senior travellers. The journey begins and ends in Kathmandu, with airport transfers, planned sightseeing, comfortable hotel stays, vegetarian meals and on-ground support arranged in advance.
