Ramnagar to Nainital and local tours

Hi,

We are planning a trip to Nainital during September 25-30th. Got tickets till Ramnagar (kathgodam was unavailable). Wanted to know the following
  1. Are there pre-paid taxi stands at Ramnagar to Nainital? How much do the taxis charge? What is the approximate travel time?
  2. I was told there are buses from Ramnagar to Nainital. Are they good?
  3. Can you name some good travels for local sightseeing (local within Nainital)
  4. What would be the cost to go around Nainital (Ranikhet for example)

Appreciate help!

Thanks!

Thanks Delhiwala !!

We would reach out to Mahinder and work out the package.

Can you recommend good places in and around Nainital (we have got swamped with too much information on the internet on what to visit)

Looking at serene calm places that is good for photography also.

Thanks!

Alka is bang on the mall facing the lake on Tallital side. Well maintained big hotel. Do not know about the serice.

In Binsar, KMVN is at the best location, next option would be Khali resorts. There is no electricity in both and runs on genset/solar power from evening to dinner time. Club Mahindra is around 10 Kms away from zero point.

Dear SG PRAKASH,

Alka is good. They have a nice restaurant too.

Their Alka Annexe has slightly lower priced rooms.

Nothing beats KMVN in Binsar.....
