During the Everest Base Camp trek, ATM access is limited to Lukla and Namche Bazaar. Lukla has a few ATMs, but they can be unreliable due to power and connectivity issues. Namche Bazaar has more dependable ATMs, but it’s still wise to carry spare cash. As you ascend beyond Namche, the availability of ATMs decreases considerably, and there are no ATMs in villages such as Tengboche, Dingboche, and Lobuche.
