If you’re located in or around Raxaul, your dream getaway is just a road trip away. With the Musafircab expertly curated Raxaul to Nepal Tour Package, travellers can explore Nepal with ease, comfort, and complete peace of mind. This blog will guide you through the complete travel route, destinations covered, and all the package inclusions—so you can plan your journey confidently and conveniently.
Ways to Enter Nepal
Travelling by road is among the most popular and convenient methods, especially for Indian tourists living near the border. Several official border entry points make overland travel easy and accessible. These include Raxaul–Birgunj in Bihar, Sunauli–Bhairahawa in Uttar Pradesh, and Jogbani–Biratnagar in Bihar. To make your road trip comfortable, you can hire a private cab service, which handles everything from transport and accommodations to sightseeing. This not only ensures a hassle-free experience but also removes the need to negotiate with local taxis or depend on public transport in unfamiliar territory.
If you're an independent traveller, you can also reach the Indian side of the border by train or bus and then cross on foot. On the Nepal side, local vehicles and buses are easily available to continue your journey. However, hiring a private cab for the entire journey gives you better control over your time and comfort.
By Air – Fast and Direct Flights to Nepal
If you prefer to fly, air travel to Nepal is straightforward. Daily flights operate to Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu from major Indian cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore, and Varanasi. These routes are well-served by airlines including IndiGo, Air India, Nepal Airlines, and Buddha Air.
If you're flying into Nepal, it's important to carry the correct travel documentation. While Indian citizens do not require a visa, they must carry one of the following government-issued IDs:
· Passport
· Voter ID card
Note that Aadhaar Card is not accepted for air travel entry into Nepal, even though it's allowed for road border crossings. So if you're flying, a passport or voter ID is mandatory to clear immigration at Tribhuvan International Airport.
What to Expect at the Border or Airport
Whether entering by road or air, the process is relatively smooth for Indian nationals. At land borders, you may be asked to present your ID for verification and complete a short entry record. Most checkpoints are open from 6 AM to 10 PM, but it’s always best to arrive during daylight hours for easier processing.
At airports, Indian passengers must go through standard immigration and customs procedures. Your passport or voter ID will be checked, and a quick customs inspection may follow.
