The best way to explore Kathmandu and the valley is on foot or by riding a bike. Buses plying the city are very cheap but incredibly crowded. Tempos (like huge auto-rickshaws) ply similar routes for similar prices. A rundown trolley bus operates from near the National Stadium to Bhaktapur. Taxis are reasonably priced and drivers will use their meters if you insist.

Taxis: are easily recognisable by their taxi sign on top and black license plate. They can be easily hailed throughout the city. Private taxis may charge slightly higher rates than metered taxis but you will find that in the metered cars, meters often do not work, or the driver will refuse to switch it on. There is also a Night Taxi service operated by the major hotels. The fare is slightly higher than the metered taxi.
