The best tour! A real authentic experience. - My mum and I went on this tour and got to experience authentic Nepalese food. Namaste was an amazing guide and was very welcoming and kind. The tour went for around 2 hours, where we walked around the main district of Kathmandu. We learnt and ate so much! Thank you!

Santosh will get you all the food and make it fun! - Santosh was a perfect guide. We tried so many Indian snacks and drinks, as well as saw a large part of Kathmandu in the evening, the markets were full and beautiful, and he helped me to navigate all the new foods.

What a fab way to start... - What a fab way to start myNepal visit with a walk through the streets of Kathmandu and enjoy some ‘most delicious’ food. We found places that only a local would know about and tried a wide selection of savory and sweet treats. All were very tasty! Can highly recommend this tour. Information and most delicious!

Great food tour - A very good good tour around the back streets of Kathmandu My guide was Namaste who was very friendly ( it was only me on this tour !) Namaste took me to around 6 different places to eat ( which I wouldn’t have found on my own Tried some very tasty snacks while Namaste was telling me about the history of Kathmandu and pointing out the different temples He also made sure I got back to my hotel ok If you are in Kathmandu and enjoy tasting different goods and seeing parts of Kathmandu I would recommend doing this tour with Namaste

Tasty local food in central Kathmandu - Manoj was a great guide showing us some local food spots that we never would’ve found on our own down side alleys. Tastings included chatamari, Papadi chaat, Panipuri, Lalmohan, and laphing.
