Great market tour of Busan

Published on Jan, 2025

Fantastic tour which was both informative and fun. Chef Heeyoung is a terrific guide and loves to share her passion for Busan.

Excellent Busan food tour!

Published on Nov, 2024

Heeyoung was an excellent tour guide! She was knowledgeable, friendly, and just pleasant to spend a few hours with. It was well paced, with a few stops for lite eating and learning opportunities! I highly recommend it if you visit Busan. Our only regret is we didn’t have another day to have a king crab meal freshly prepared for us!

Excellent tour guide, fascinating area

Published on Nov, 2024

Chef Heeyoung is an excellent tour guide, super friendly and very knowledgable about Korean cuisine and many others. Between interesting segments she chatted with all member of our group, answering any ad hoc questions we had. I would highly recommend taking this tour if you happen to be visiting Busan on a Wednesday!

A Fantastic Food Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

My family and I took this tour and were so glad we did! The guide is an experienced, knowledgeable chef from Busan, who is an expert in Korean cooking. The seafood area is amazing and the other treats and delicacies were delightful. After the tour be sure you pick out your seafood that they cook for you. This is a wonderful way to experience Busan’s special foods.

Highly recommended. Great tour, great food!

Published on Oct, 2024

We had this tour on our first full day in Busan. It certainly impresses and does not disappoint. Chef Heeyoung knows her craft very well, and she is a true expert. We had a good sampling of Busan/Korean food at the Jagalchi market and its vicinity. It was 2 hours that were well paced and enjoyable. I have just recommended this tour to my friend who is also planning a trip to Busan soon.
