''Saturday Hidden Kathamndu Walk and Food Day Tour'' is different from typical tourist experiences — just like our Old Kathmandu and Pashupati Aarati tours. This special walk takes you to Handigaun, an ancient settlement believed by historians to be the royal center of old Kathmandu, where historical artifacts dating back to the 5th century have been discovered.
Every Saturday afternoon, the local streets become peaceful and vehicle-free. In this calm atmosphere, local families bring their traditional kitchens outside and warmly welcome visitors with authentic lively made Newari dishes.
During the tour, you will:
• Explore important historical sites,
• Experience the living culture of old Kathmandu,
• And enjoy the rich taste and aroma of traditional Newari cuisine.
If you are in Kathmandu on a Saturday afternoon, this tour offers a memorable cultural and culinary experience in just a few hours and at an affordable cost.

Best trekking ever

5.00This was truly the most beautiful trek I have ever done. This was partly due to the organization. Being able to book directly from the Netherlands at very competitive prices. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and knew a lot about the region. It was also great that she spoke English well. The porters made it complete. Thanks for the superb organization, and that is why I can highly recommend Three Jewels Adventures... a solid 10 from me. Thank you, dear people, for taking us to paradise on earth.

5.00Before our ten-day Pikey Peak trek — which we also booked with Three Jewels — we visited this local food market guided by Amber Tamang. What a hidden gem this is! Amber’s explanations were personal, informative, and a lot of fun. We also got to taste several dishes and truly experience the Newari cuisine! Highly recommended! Thank you, Amber, for your wonderful tour.
