Overview

Namaste! Come hungry to explore the flavors of Kathmandu on a unique journey combining rickshaw rides and local shopping. Guided by a professional licensed Tour and Trekking Guide and certified Barista, this tour offers a comfortable and vibrant way to navigate our city’s historic streets. Having personally explored the diverse culinary landscapes of India, Sri Lanka, China and Thailand, I bring a global perspective on hospitality and hygiene to every stop we make.

As we glide through the bustling markets of Asan and the hidden gems of Thamel, we prioritize quality over quantity. You will enjoy an authentic taste of Nepal’s diverse flavors while learning the stories behind our traditional crafts and ingredients. Guided by the philosophy of Atithi Devo Bhava (a guest is like a god), my goal is to provide a meaningful cultural exchange and a sensory journey through the heart and soul of Kathmandu.

Dhanyawaad / Thank You!
