Travel Money

Foreign currency and traveller's cheques can be exchanged for Nepalese rupees at Tribhuvan airport and at exchange counters in the tourist center of Kathmandu. Major hotels and restaurants accept credit cards, and ATM's are common in these locations. During trekking, your meals and accommodation will be paid for in advance, and money will only be necessary for souvenirs, alcohol or personal expenses. Make sure to bring enough cash to sustain you through your trek, as credit cards will not be accepted outside of major population centers.
