Getting There
-
Walking to the Bus Station
From anywhere in Thamel, head towards the main road known as 'Thamel Marg.' Walk towards the north until you reach the intersection with 'Tridevi Marg.' Turn left onto Tridevi Marg and continue walking for about 10 minutes until you see the 'Kantipath' road. Look for the local bus station where you can find buses heading to 'Sukedhara' or 'Bhaktapur.' This journey should take approximately 20-30 minutes on foot.
-
Local Bus to Jiri or Salleri
At the bus station, look for a bus heading to 'Jiri' or 'Salleri.' The fare is typically around NPR 300-600 depending on the destination. The bus ride may take about 8-10 hours to Jiri or around 6-7 hours to Salleri, where the Everest Base Camp Trek begins. Make sure to confirm the bus schedule as they may vary, and try to catch an early morning bus to maximize your travel time.
