Explore hidden local eateries - Eat the Nepali way
Navigating the street food culture of Kathmandu can be quite an adventure for most and all that is taken care of on this tour ! Immerse yourself in the rich culture of Kathmandu with a lovely evening where you will explore the local Nepali cuisine with me at places most loved by locals. Tingle your taste buds with Nepali flavors at hole in the wall eateries and experience the real taste that locals eat regularly.
We will begin our food tour at the old market of Indrachowk, moving on to the Kathmandu Durbar Square area that is ever so rich in culture.
One thing to note is that 3 items on the tour will be Indian snacks as they're widely consumed and loved by locals here. If you are someone who is very familiar with Indian snacks, I would recommend my "Tibetan and Sherpa culinary tour" which you can find on my profile. It is completely different from what you will be eating on this tour and will be a whole different cultural experience.
After hosting food tours by myself for a while, I have now started working with the young people of the city! Every guide in my tour is well trained, a local of the city and of course a food enthusiast ! It will be either me or one of my team members taking you around for the tour.
NOTE : the cutoff time for new bookings is 1 day ahead. If you would like to do a last minute tour, please send me a message and i shall try to accommodate you!
