Eat like a local Safley! - Deepak was an amazing tour guide, we are vegetarian and he catered to our requirements perfectly. We ate like a Nepali local and tasted all the flavours of Nepal. Our Rickshaw ride at the end was the icing on the cake. We did the 4:45pm tour and experienced the hustle and bustle of the streets on dusk to evening with all the energy that the streets offered us. Deepak was very particular on making sure the quality of food and drinks,(I drank the water that Deepak had pre organised at every stop) was safe and delicious. DO NOT EAT BEFORE THE TOUR! So much food! Thankyou Deepak 🙏🏼

Great Tour! - This tour was great fun. A variety of food and drink in many dfferent kinds of eateries. The rickshaw picked me up at my hotel, but then we had short walks to each stop. It felt good to walk. Deepak then made sure I got back to my hotel. He is very knowledgeable and interesting. I highly recommend this tour. Don't eat much before you go as the food is abundant!

Best way to experience Kathmandu - I had so much fun on this tour! The tour started with a fun rickshaw ride around town, followed by a very informative -- and incredibly delicious -- food crawl to some hidden gems around Kathmandu. Deepak has so much knowledge about food and history, which made the tour so enjoyable. I highly recommend booking this tour if you're ever in Kathmandu. And as other reviewers have noted, make sure you come with an empty stomach. There is A LOT of food to enjoy!!

Food plus more - Please experience this excellent tour with many samplings of delicious cuisine; the local spots are special and all the different foods were a real taste of Kathmandu . Care was taken to make our tour informative and fun and of course delicious. The rickshaw ride was an adventure and I would say a must do in Kathmandu. Come hungry and you will have an enjoyable tour.

Excellent food and Rickshaw tour - Deepak was a great tour guide. He was very conscientious and made sure that we were aware of the time the tour was to start and also where we were to be picked up. He chose a wide variety of places to sample foods and all were just excellent. I cannot stress enough that you should go on an empty stomach. We learned about Nepalese cuisine and some of the history behind it. He was punctual, caring, and informative. We did not feel rushed and it was evident that he wanted to make it a very pleasant experience for both of us. The Rick Shaw ride was entertaining as we bumped along the cobbled streets of Kathmandu.

I thoroughly enjoyed this... - I thoroughly enjoyed this tour with Deepak! He's super conversational and friendly. We went to a lot of local restaurants. He called ahead to make sure that the food came out right on time. I love the vegetable momos! If you are traveling alone in Kathmandu and needs a good local guide, I highly recommend Deepak!
