A cheap day in Nepal


By Darren - Posted on 28 December 2007

Nepal is a beautiful country, offering lots to do and see, and at a very resonable price.  Tourist areas like Kathmandu and Pokhara can be expensive if you do everything on offer.  However, Nepal is one of the cheapest places in the world to stay if you just kick back, live like a local and enjoy some of the world's finest views.

The minimum cost of staying in Nepal

If you stay in a remote non-touristy area your costs will be minimal, but you can achieve the same cost per day in Pokhara, which is a great place to lose a week or even a couple of months.  Here is an example of the minimum daily cost of staying in Pokhara.

Item Cost
Accomodation at Banana Lodge, Pokhara NRS100
Breakfast - fruit, pancake or pastry and tea NRS30
Lunch - Sandwich, curry, pastry, MoMos, soup or daal bhaat and tea NRS80
Dinner- Curry, daal bhaat and tea NRS100
2 litres of water NRS30
Total NRS340

So a budget say in Pokhara will cost you NRS340 per day.  Keep in mind that a taxi ride will cost NRS100+ and a bottle of beer NRS190.
