5.00Deepak was a great guide explaining each food and drink on the tour. But more than that, he’s an intelligent and interesting young man, with whom to spend 3 hrs in conversations munching over food.
Great tastes of Napalese food!

5.00The tour included both restaurants and street foods. The tour guide (Deepak K.) was great and provided plenty of backdrop. Tour ended with dessert! Would definitely recommend it to anyone who would like an introduction to Napalese food. The best!
You can't go wrong with this tour!

5.00We had so much fun on this tour! Deepak was knowledgeable about the foods we tried as well as the history of Nepal, its politics, religions, and culture. He provided fun facts as well as answered all of our off the wall questions. We booked during monsoon season but the rain didn’t dampen our spirits and we’re glad we made this part of our trip. All of the food was delicious, but my absolute favorite was the first Newari dish closely followed by the lassi. I highly recommend booking this tour! Pro tip: book the 15:45 (345pm) tour; have yourself a medium size breakfast and then hold out until the tour starts. So much delicious food, you won't go hungry.
Great tour with good food.

4.00The food choices were all good and for the most part tasty. Def tried some things I normally would not try. I took one star away because we had three dishes at one place and I felt like part of the fun should be to try each dish at a new place. I also was not a fan of the Momo we had (I have had better in town). Our guide was really good and very knowledgeable.
