Ho fatto con Anant sia io tour dello street food sia quello all’alba in barca perché mi sono trovata molto bene. Anant è un uomo simpatico e gentile ma sopratutto preparato! Durante il tour dello street food non si è limitato a portarmi in giro a mangiare ma anche in giro per la città ad esplorare luoghi nascosti che solo chi fa questo mestiere da 32 anni conosce. Ho mangiato bene, mi sono divertita e ho sperimentato il cibo indiano con un vero local! Mentre con pazienza mi spiegava tutto e alla fine. Mi interrogava anche! 😂 Grazie Anant

Anant is really an excellent guide. Today he took me to taste all the special street food in India. Also with stories behind them. It’s been a fantastic experience! Highly recommended!

it was our first time in Varanasi, and thankfully we found Anant on guruwalk as we were interested to explore the ancient city with a local. he brought us to taste the local food and delicacies which were really good. we followed him through every nook and cranny of the city. learnt the cultures, rituals and history. A tip for fellow explorers, do come with an open mind and empty stomach for this walking tour
