While renting a vehicle in Nepal, most of you may have the question as is self-driving possible in Nepal? Well, it is not impossible to rent a vehicle with no driver, but due to the company's policy and Nepal Road Condition, it is quite impractical. Many countries allow self-driving all around the cities. But in the context of Nepal, self-driving is prohibited due to various reasons. We understand that while traveling to new places, many people want to drive and explore personally without outsiders but have to fulfill various legal and companies' condition. Hence, hiring a driver remains a safe play for roaming around the places in Nepal. S/he is flexible enough to talk and ride with and will provide appropriate personal space for your comfort in the journey.
Travelling is always interesting which helps to explore new places, another town, and countries. Almost all people are fond of traveling either for pleasure or business purposes. There are means of travel including airway, roadway, railway, waterway and many more. Most of the travelers want comfort and peace in their travel so they prefer roadway (in a private vehicle) and airway. These means of transportation are more comfortable, more convenient and of course faster than other means.
