Great tour - I had an incredible experience on this tour, thanks to my fantastic guide, Kabita. She not only ensured I was comfortable throughout but also took the time to explain the history and significance of each location we visited. Kabita was attentive to my preferences when trying different dishes, which made the tour even more enjoyable. This tour offers a wonderful mix of diverse food options, city exploration, and fascinating history. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Best Tour - Such an amazing experience. My guide Kabita was awesome. She really took the time to explain all the places we visited and the history of the good. She also made sure I was okay with tasting certain dishes and making sure I was comfortable the whole time. I would recommend this tour to everyone to try. Such great and a wide option of foods and city tour & history lessons all in one.

Fabulous food tour - I had a wonderful tour with Kabita. She took me to places I would never have known about. She communicated very well and we visited a wide range of food stalls giving an excellent overview of the food of Kathmandu.

Great city food tour - Good tour of the parts of the city where only locals shop and eat. The food was varied and tasted great. The guide was friendly and very knowledgeable as well as highly passionate about good food.

A must do in Kathmandu!! - This is a must do for anyone visiting Kathmandu. You visit truely local eateries that would be extremely difficult to find otherwise. Kabita was an amazing guide. She explained all the food and also provided great information regarding Nepalese culture and history which was very informative. Would highly recommend to get her as your guide. Overall, an incredible experience.

Truly local tour visiting “hole-in-the-wall” spots I never would have found on my own - I had a wonderful time on the food tour with my guide Kabita. The group was small (just me and one other participant) and the food was excellent. It was so fun seeing the city with a local and trying so many foods. We truly went to numerous (7) spots I would not have found on my own. This food tour inspired me to go on food tours in more cities I visit! My one advice for future participants: eat a small breakfast and go for a big walk before the tour- you want to show up hungry!! There is a lot of food to try.

Wonderful tour around Kathmandu - This was a fantastic tour around Kathmandu and a chance to really get to see some hidden gems which we would not have found without our guide Deepak. He was extremely knowledgeable about all the Nepali culture and religion and we spoke easily about so many topics. Such an interesting tour not only about food but also culture and the Nepali people! We would highly recommend!

A must for foodies - What an excellent tour. Not something i would normally do, but was pleasantly surprised. I was shown around the local market by Kabita, stopping at lots of street cafes and vendors. Many were far off the main street. Kabita was knowledgeable about the local foods and the area. Thoroughly enjoyed our time together learning about the area and the different foods. Be aware, go hungry. There is a lot of food to try
