Description
If you want to say you've truly eaten Seoul, join me for this experience.
I'm the author of several Seoul food guidebooks, and I've spent years discovering the city's best local restaurants and hidden food spots. I personally selected every dish on this tour to show you the Seoul that goes beyond the typical tourist spots.
At Namdaemun Market, one of Seoul's most iconic traditional markets, you'll enjoy 12+ authentic Korean foods, including street snacks, savory mains, sweet desserts, and traditional tea. We're talking noodles, dumplings, rice dishes, and beloved Korean comfort foods, served in generous portions with real flavors and no cutting corners.
This isn't a tasting flight. I want you to actually eat and enjoy the food, not just take a bite and move on. We'll take our time, sit down, eat properly, and experience the market the way a local would on a day off. By the time we leave the market, you'll be full.
After the food, we'll walk along a stretch of Hanyangdoseong, Seoul's historic city wall that has stood for centuries. It's a great way to let the food settle while taking in views of Seoul's skyline, traditional neighborhoods, and surrounding mountains.
I created this tour for travelers who want more than a quick bite or two. I'll introduce you to the local foods I know and love, including dishes and restaurants featured in my food guidebooks.
Come hungry, eat well, and experience Seoul through the food I personally chose for you.
