Reach travellers on the road
Batoma is read on the bus, on the way to where your business is. A listing puts you in front of travellers at the moment they are deciding where to stop, stay or eat.
Our vision
A Nepal where every journey is part of the trip: where travellers know what lies ahead on the road, and the towns, homestays and people along the way are found, visited and valued.
Our mission
Batoma gives tourism, and the people who travel, one platform to explore Nepal. We put honest stories, road guides, events and checked local businesses in front of travellers wherever they are, on the bus, on their phone and on the web, so they discover more and the places along the road earn from it.
What we stand for
- Honest Anything paid for is labelled, and paying never buys a review.
- Local Nepal's own businesses, writers and events, each checked by our team.
- Made for the road Quick to load, and readable offline in the app when the signal goes.
- Fair to partners A monthly report shows what you got for what you paid.
