Yummy and fun experience

Published on Dec, 2024

GJ did a great job showing us around and ensuring that we got to try some great food. We will do this tour again in the future.

Best food tour!

We had the pleasure of getting a food tour with Andrew during a long layover in Seoul. Such a great experience! He was very accommodating to having jet lagged kids and food allergies. We were able to get some history on Korea during our drive also. Besides him being knowledgeable, he was great to be around. I highly recommend!

Great walking tour! We hit the best city attractions and eateries.

Amazing!!! My Food Tour with Hans was amazing! Hans was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. Hans shared with me some of the history of Seoul, which I truly enjoyed. It was wonderful walking the streets and tasting the food of the many vendors in the neighborhood. I must say I had the best Fried Chicken & Beer EVER!!!

We had a fantastic experience with Oky, our tour guide. She took us to the best places to taste the local food, local flavors, local markets and Korean BBQ. We ended with a very nice walking in the streets of Seoul. She was very well knowledge in the culture, food and palaces around Seoul and made fantastic recommendations. We had a great time with Oki and did enjoy the overall experience.
