Kathmandu Airport (KTM), Nepal's main international airport, lies about 6 km east of central Kathmandu, 20 to 40 minutes by car to Thamel depending on traffic; Boudhanath is about 3 km away, Bhaktapur about 10 km and Nagarkot about 28 km.
Routes we run in Kathmandu
Private transfer routes are listed for Kathmandu, from Kathmandu Airport: destinations include Kathmandu Durbar Square, Boudhanath Stupa, Patan Durbar Square, Bhaktapur, Nagarkot and Thamel. Each route has its own page with the distance, the drive time, the vehicles and the booking form; if your hotel is not named, book the nearest and tell the desk the exact address - the price is per vehicle and rarely changes for a nearby address.
Kathmandu has no metro or tram; taxis, ride-hailing cars and crowded microbuses cover the city, and traffic is often slow and dusty. A private car is the easiest choice from the airport with luggage or trekking gear and for day trips to Patan, Bhaktapur and Nagarkot.
Vehicles
Sedan for one to three passengers, minivan or GMC for up to seven, Sprinter for eight to thirteen; Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with proper luggage space. Child seats on request at no extra charge. The desk recommends the size once it knows how many of you there are and how many bags.
How the transfer works
Booking takes one WhatsApp message: flight, date, passengers, hotel. The confirmation carries the price, the vehicle and the meeting arrangement in writing. At the airport the driver is at the point the confirmation named, with a name board; waiting time after landing is included, tolls and parking are included, and there is nothing to pay the driver on the day.
Every booking is confirmed by a real person on our WhatsApp desk, in Arabic or English, with the price written down before anything is paid.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
How much does a transfer from the airport to Kathmandu cost?
Prices are fixed per vehicle and shown on each route page and in its booking form; the figure you see is the figure you pay, confirmed on WhatsApp before you travel. A family or group pays for the vehicle, not per person.
Where do I meet the driver at the airport?
It varies by airport and terminal: a set meeting point inside arrivals, a specific exit, or the driver with a name board just after customs. Your WhatsApp confirmation gives the exact place, the driver's name and a phone number.
What if my flight is delayed?
Nothing to do - every transfer is flight-tracked, the pickup moves with the real landing time, and waiting time is included.
Is the transfer private or shared?
Private. The vehicle carries your party only, from the arrivals door to your address, with no other passengers.
Which vehicle should I choose?
Sedan for up to three with normal luggage, minivan or GMC for up to seven, Sprinter for up to thirteen. If unsure, tell the desk the number of passengers and bags and it recommends one before you pay.
Do you provide child seats?
Yes - say the ages when you book and the driver brings the right seats or boosters at no extra charge.
Is there a bus, train or metro from the airport to Kathmandu?
Kathmandu has no metro or tram; taxis, ride-hailing cars and crowded microbuses cover the city, and traffic is often slow and dusty. A private car is the easiest choice from the airport with luggage or trekking gear and for day trips to Patan, Bhaktapur and Nagarkot. For anyone with luggage, a family or a late flight, the private car is the simpler choice.
Can I book the return to the airport too?
Yes. Send the departure flight and the hotel; the driver collects you with a comfortable margin, and both directions sit on one confirmation.
Do you run transfers to other cities from Kathmandu?
Yes - intercity transfers by private car or van are booked the same way; tell the desk the destination and it quotes a fixed price for the whole vehicle.
Which language does the driver speak?
It depends on the country, the city and the time of the transfer, so we do not promise a particular language. Tell us your preference and we do our best; the WhatsApp desk always works in Arabic and English.
How and when do I pay?
After the written confirmation, never before. The desk explains the payment options on WhatsApp once the price, the vehicle and the meeting point are confirmed.
Can I change or cancel?
Yes, in the same WhatsApp conversation. The terms depend on how close to the pickup the change comes, and the desk states them before any payment.
