Getting There
-
Walking
From the center of Thamel, head southwest on Thamel Marg towards Chhetrapati. Continue straight until you reach the intersection with Paknajol Marg. Turn left onto Paknajol Marg. Kathmandu Guide is located a short walk down this road on your left-hand side. Look for the sign that says 'Kathmandu Guide' to ensure you’re at the right place.
-
Rickshaw
If you prefer not to walk, you can hire a cycle rickshaw from anywhere in Thamel. Simply tell the driver 'Paknajol Marg' or show them the address on your phone. The ride should cost around 100-200 NPR, depending on your negotiation skills. It should take about 5-10 minutes to reach Kathmandu Guide.
-
Local Bus
While there are local buses, they are not the most convenient option for tourists unfamiliar with the area. However, if you wish to try, find a bus heading towards Sorhakhutte. You can ask locals or look for signs. Get off at the nearest stop to Paknajol Marg, and then walk to Kathmandu Guide. Please note that this may take longer and can be confusing for first-time visitors.
