Pretty pleased with this booking. They put me on a tourist bus run by Swift Holiday, which was pretty comparable to the one in the photos. The hotel pickup was prompt and polite, carried my bags on the short walk to the bus stop, and made sure that everything was settled with the bus driver before leaving. The bus stopped fairly regularly for breaks and the driver was appropriately cautious on the slick roads. The only downside was that the driver did start picking up some local transit along the way, which meant we stopped several times in Pokhara before reaching our station. This seems pretty typical for tourist buses, though.

Worst experience as they...

MannTarak_S, Jan 2026

Worst experience as they have not mentioned the bus name and I had to go through hassle. Please provide bus name atleast.

little feet space and impossible recline

Bazil_C, Oct 2025

The bus has very little space for feet making impossible to recline the back as you do discomfort to the one behind too. Also for same bus I found 5 minutes later 15% cheper

A Really Luxury Bus

Juan_B, Aug 2023

They picked us up where it was said. The driver was very kind, and the seats well assigned and amazing. Súper luxury trip. I reccommend it!

Terrible, not expected experience

Juan_A, Aug 2023

Luxury? Maybe years ago was luxury but now the bus is very worn out. It took us 10 and a half hours instead of the 7 in the advertising. There is no road half of the time.

Terrible and painful expereince

VINEEL_P, Feb 2023

I am cheated. Both by Viator and the local bus operator. I was promised a luxury bus but was provided with terrible tourist bus in the last minute. Viator should own this responsibility and stick to its business values. ITS AN ABSOLUTE SENSE OF IRRESPONSIBILITY, LACK OF EMPATHY AND BUSINESS ETHICS. You just dont give a damn about how does a customer feel when they get something far inferior than what they paid for.

Loooong ride!

Eva_A, Feb 2023

The very long Journey. The last two hours with all the road works. The dust. The seat feeling harder and harder. But finally we got there. 😀

Comfortable seats. Long journey.

Lucas_T, Nov 2022

Seats are comfortable, but very little leg room. The journey took 9h. Pick up place was by the road, which was a bit confusing at first but the driver went by the gathered group of people to find who would take this bus.

Hi Lucas, We are glad to know that you had a good travel to Pokhara. We hope to get another chance to be part of your trip again. Thank you. Nepal Vehicle Hiring Pvt Ltd

Worth it for the comfy seats.

KEVIN_C, Nov 2022

Was more comfortable than a standard bus but maybe not quite "Luxury". The journey is long and without the extra comfort it would of been even longer.

Hi Kevin, Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We are glad to know that you had a wonderful travel. We hope to be part of another trip again. Thank you. Nepal Vehicle Hiring Pvt Ltd
