Excellent food tour from Deepak.
Just completed a wonderful food experience and tour with Deepak. He took me to some ‘hidden gems’ you would not find on your own, with fabulous tasting Nepalese foods topping it off with a delicious dairy drink at the end. As well, Deepak communicated interesting sightseeing facts along the way. I can thoroughly recommend this experience, great way to spend the time. Thank you Deepak.

Great food, company, and sites!
I had a great time with Deepak! He introduced me to many different delicious foods and shared his knowledge about Nepal history and culture with me. He took me to small vendors in little passageways and courtyards that I wouldn't have found on my own. Deepak went above and beyond and took to me many different sites and stops along the way, and he even brought me a specific food I told him I wanted to try. It was great fun, I highly recommend.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had a great time with Deepak and enjoyed the authentic foods, hidden alleys, and cultural insights. He’ll be very happy to know his effort to show you extra sites and find the food you wanted made your experience special. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again in Kathmandu. Warm regards, Yakthung Tours & Travel

Why this scores 76
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu cost?
+
Prices start at $48 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kathmandu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kathmandu is not rushed.
Is Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 117 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu?
+
Around 41 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kathmandu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kathmandu and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Walking Street Food Tour in Kathmandu start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kathmandu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kathmandu?
+
On Outty we rank every Kathmandu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Kathmandu Sightseeing Tour | UNESCO World Heritage sites, Manaslu Circuit Trek, Kathmandu Food and Drink Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kathmandu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kathmandu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
