Kathmandu Airport to Pokhara Airport Destination Reviews

FD

Very comfortable bus and attentive staff. They even arranged seating so I could sit alone. Snacks were provided (a bottle of water and a small biscuit). There was a slight 30-minute delay at departure, reflected in the arrival time, but nothing major. Wi-Fi is available on board and duvets are provided in case it gets cold. The Google Maps links in the PDF for both departure and arrival points are also very helpful.

All good in general. The service though could improve by giving customers to pick a seat ( tourist are always located at the back even if explicitly asked not to).

Nice bus, I feel comfortable with the sofa seats. Operator directly message me on WhatsApp before the trip about pickup timing and the right location. Driver and conductor are good. I think We have 3 bus stopover for dining or toilet break.
