Side excursion from Thailand to Pohara in late June or early

We%26#39;ll be in Thailand for 2 wks at the of June and until the middle of July. We also plan to spend several days in Angkor Watt. Does it make sense to catch a plane to spend 2-3 days in Nepal? We were thinking of spending the time in Pokhara and catching a flight over Everest. Everyone on TA says it monsoon time- how much rain can we expect?

Thanks for your time?

Is 2 to 32 days enough to spend in Nepal?

2 to 3 days is not enough to spend in Nepal with all the variety that Nepal offers. But you can see a portion of what you can enjoy in Nepal.

I am afraid you might not be able to make the flight to Everest in late June. You might be lucky and make them in early June provided the monsoon starts a bit late. But if you want to take a flight to Everest and spend time in Pokhara, take the flight to Everest the next morning of your arrival and then head off to Pokhara. That would make things easier or you could take the mountain flight at the end of your trip - on the last morning of your stay here.

HI,

Yes the monsoon will start in June but if you will be lucky,you can flight over Everest.

Of course it offers many activities,I am also afraid it will be tight schedule in 2-3 days.

Cheers,have a good travel

Thanks for the suggestions. What airlines fly from Bankok and/or from Angkor Wat to Pokhara? Are their any airlines that are more reasonable than others? We will either fly from BKK or Siem Reap and spend 3 days in Pokhara. Suggestions on things to do besides flying over Everest?

What companies fly from Pokhara to Everest- helicopters or planes?

You can not fly directly to Pokhara from Bangkok - you need to fly to Kathmandu, the only international airport in Nepal. From there you can take a domestic flight to Pokhara or drive 6 hours from Kathmandu.

From Bangkok to Kathmandu, Thai Airways and Nepal Airlines Corporation fly to Kathmandu. Nepal Airlines is relatively cheaper than Thai. There are other airlines (Biman Airlines, Jet Airways, Indian Airlines) that fly to other destinations and connect to Kathmandu.

There are sightseeing in Kathmandu valley - Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur Durbar Squares. There are temples like Pashupatinath and stupas like Swayambhunath, Bodhnath. You can also visit Nagarkot to have a panoramic view of the mountains and lovely sunrise from there - provided the weather is good.

I have been reading a lot of posts and wondering if we should postpone the trip to Nepal because of bad weather in late June and July. Is the rain, flooding etc in Kathmandu, Pokhara, Bhaktapur, Gorkha- the entire area or are there some places where we might find nice weather and if so where are they??? We wanted to go to Chitwan National Park but that looks like monsoons for sure. If we postpone it will probably be several years before we can do it again.
