Journey was fine. A/C didn't work, so it was a bit warm. I couldn't get my window to open either but managed to open the one in front. Water provided which is good.

Please note the bus doesn't drop you at the themal tourist bus stop, this forces you to take a local taxi ride.

The bus was old and dirty, and there was not enough space between the seat rows. Also it's important to know, that the bus stops in front of pokhara bus park, and not inside like the other buses. It departed 30 minutes late, and the driver was not reachable.
Pokhara to Kathmandu, Bus VIP, Pokhara Jagadamba, Feb 25, 2023
PJ
Very comfortable journey on some very challenging roads. The duration was longer than quoted but understandable given the conditions and volume of traffic. Besides flying this is the best way to travel between Kathmandu and Pokhara.
