Coming by Air
Nepal's only international airport is located in it's
capital, Kathmandu. There are few direct flights to Nepal,
which means most travelers from Europe, North America
and Australia have to change aircraft and/or airline en
route. Another option is to fly directly to Delhi in India
and then go in by land with a tour, visiting a bit of
India on the way. Flights are also available from Lhasa,
Tibet into Kathmandu.

| Coming by Land |
Traveling by
land from India into Nepal can be an experience on it's
own. There are three main entry points: Sunauli-Bhairawa,
Birganj-Raxaul Bazaar and Kakarbhitta-Siliguri. The
easiest way to cross them is by tourist buses from appropriate
Indian cities. If you are flying into Delhi, you can
enter Nepal quickly through the Mahendrenagar-Banbassa
crossing, but the recommended route is to travel first
to Varanasi in India, and there cross through Sunauli-Bhairawa.
The crossing between Nepal and Tibet via Kodari is open
to organized groups but not to individual travelers,
though this has been changing every month so contacting
a Nepali based tour operator is strongly advised. Be
prepared with alternative plans if you're thinking about
using this route, because landslides regularly make
it impassable during the monsoon.
