More About This Experience

Kathmandu really comes to life through her markets, and this is something even the residents of this beautiful city can't get enough of. Whether it's a never ending row of colourful shop houses selling a multitude of fabrics and garments, or that distinct smell of a spice bazaar that hits the senses all at once. And of course, this picture perfect portrayal of a Kathmandu market scene would be incomplete without the customary random stray cow, so go ahead and imagine that too. :p Jokes aside, navigating the narrow alleys (most without any street names or markers) of this ancient city can be a daunting task for anyone who's here for the first time. While a wanderer may derive pleasure at the idea of getting himself lost among the chaos and colour, same can't be said for those looking to go on a shopping spree in Kathmandu. And this is why we have taken it upon ourselves to design this shopping tour for anyone who wants to get the best value for their money and also not have to bump into too many cows. You have to select 3 sections from the list below and our shopaholic team will custom design the tour based on your selection: 1. Garments and Fabric (Cashmere/Pashmina/Wool) 2. Food and Spices 3. Jewellery (Traditional Nepali Jewellery) 4. Metal and Brass-ware 5. Traditional Attire (Saree/Dhaka/Bhoto) 6. Handicraft Products (Paper lanterns, Wood Carvings, Stone Carvings) If you have any special request then do drop us a line and we'll do our level best to incorporate it in the tour. :) Please note that if you have selected an add on for pick up then we use local taxis.
