Noryangjin Fish Market Dinner
Description
Let's have amazing seafood at the largest fish market in Seoul! Noryangjin Fisheries Wholesale market is the best place to eat fresh seafood in Seoul. It handles half of metropolitan volume and trades 250 to 300 tons of fishery products every day. We will buy some seafood and eat them in a restaurant in the market. The foods are included. As the price varies depending on the season and market situation, the food could be different each time. but I'll make sure you have the best seafood in Seoul! :) After the market, we will walk to Sayuksin park. It holds tombs of seven loyalists to the King Danjong, the grandson of King Sejong, who invented Hangeul. The park was designated as Seoul Cultural Asset. You will have a beautiful views of Hanriver from the park. Come with an empty stomach and enjoy the seafood feast! :) * Your tour guide selects the seafood based on the market situation, however, it does NOT include any crab / lobster

Lee was very friendly and knowledgeable! She knew which stalls to purchase from and it was refreshing not needing to decide what to eat. I would have never personally ordered what she did, so this was an amazing way to push yourself out of your standard comfort zone. Highly recommended.
Lee was incredible! We really enjoyed our experience at the fish market. We upgraded and purchased the King Crab. I highly recommend!
Thank you very much for coming to the market. It was such a pleasure to meet and talk with you, your family, and your friends. It is always nice to meet people who have lived overseas and share similar experiences. I hope you enjoy your stay here. If you have any questions or need help, please do not hesitate to contact me. Living overseas is not easy, so I always want to be of help. I am so glad you enjoyed the fish market experience and the king crab. I will remember this for a long time. :-) Regards, Lee (@honeytrailkorea)
Fun experience with amazing spread of seafood! Great conversations were had with even better company. Highly recommend.
Thanks you very much for coming to the market and your kind review. I really enjoy meeting people who love visiting Korea, and it’s always so much fun to have dinner with them. I hope our paths cross again soon. Have a wonderful day. :-) Regards, Lee (@honeytrailkorea)
Lee was fantastic! She was kind and knowledgeable. The food was AMAZING! Highly recommend this tour!
Thank you very much for coming to the market. It was really nice to meet you, and I hope your friend found something fun for today! It will be nice weather from tomorrow again, so enjoy your stay and make the most out of it! Please let me know if you have any questions. :-) Regards, Lee (@honeytrailkorea)
This is a phenomenal way to get immersed into Korean culture. Lee was punctual, polite, accommodating, and humorous. She ordered various types of sashimi along with shrimp, abalone, sea pineapple, sannakji, and spoon worms and had a restaurant within the market prepare everything for us. We ended the evening with an amazing spicy soup using the leftover fish carcasses from the sashimi along with a pineapple sorbet with fresh pineapple. If you’re an adventurous eater, you’ll have an amazing time. If you’re a picky eater, this tour may not be for you. 10/10 would recommend this specific tour with Lee to anyone visiting Seoul for the first time.
Thank you very much for coming to the market and your time for the great review. It was really nice to meet you and your wife. I'm always happy to see people enjoying the food at the market! I was also glad that you visit Korea again and show her the country. I hope you and she enjoys the stay. :-) Have a wonderful travel, and please let me know if you have any questions. Regards, Lee (@honeytrailkorea)
Lee is great and she is helpful in making the experience easy. It’s intimidating to go to the fish market as a foreigner. Without her we would not be able to enjoy the experience .
Thank you for coming to the tour. It was so much fun at the dinner! I hope you and your wife enjoyed it as much as I did. It was also really nice to meet someone who used to work near my precious office! Hahaha. I hope you and she enjoy the stay in Korea. Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a wonderful travel. :-) Regards, Lee (@honeytrailkorea)
Our tour guide, Lee, gave us clear instructions to where we should meet up for the tour. Arriving there, she explained how the Fish Market works and gave us a little tour. While waiting for our seafood to be ready, we had a little free time to look around. It was very interesting to see the market in person. Very different than what we see on the screen! Then, Lee took us to a restaurant on the second floor where they prepare the food for us. We were well taken care by her! Although there were no lobster nor crab, the food was AMAZING! Lee was a sweet and kind guide! It was worth it! I highly recommend this tour for seafood lovers!
Thank you very much for coming to the market. I highly appreciate your time writing the nice review. I'm glad you enjoyed the tour! Whenever I see such reviews, I feel lucky to have change my job as a tour guide. Thank you. I hope you had a great stay in Korea. Have a wonderful day. :-) Regards, Lee (@honeytrailkorea)
Wow what an experience. Lee was welcoming and took care of all negotiations with the sellers, she purchased us a huge variety of produce-from fish we knew well, to some local delicacies and things I would not usually get the chance to try (or be brave enough to try-but Lee was very helpful and explained everything). The market was fascinating, but the eating was the best bit! We went to a great restaurant upstairs that’s prepared our dishes, we had so much food and so many options, including an amazing fish soup and sorbet at the end. I was travelling alone, so it was lovely to meet the group and have dinner and soju with them. I found the booking as I did a hike with Lee back in January 2023 and wanted to try something different in a welcoming and friendly group which I knew it would be. We honestly had so much food and such high quality produce I genuinely wonder how Lee makes any profit, as there was so much great stuff and we didn’t want to anything/have to pay for anything extra, plus we all got a cute little cookie gift at the end and did a fun quiz at the table! Thanks Lee, I will be back in the future for sure.
Honeytrailkorea.com team would like to thank you for your review. It is always so lovely to meet you in Korea. Whenever I have tours with you, I always think that you make everyone happy around you. :-) It is super power I always want to have. Haha. Because of your kindness, the dinner became even more enjoyable. Thank you. I hope that we can meet again in the near future. Have a great day.
Thank you so much to Lee for such an amazing dinner at the Noryangjin Fish Market! My husband and I booked this tour because we were worried we couldn't navigate the market with no language and understanding of how to purchase the seafood to eat at the restaurants upstairs - thankfully Lee was the answer to all of that. Lee took us around to the various stalls to explain the different types of seafood. She quickly found her go-to stalls and restaurant where we had the freshest sashimi and most delicious grilled seafood. We were absolutely stuffed and also learned some interesting Korean facts while eating. So grateful to Lee for her time and care, would highly recommend this tour :)
Thank you so much for the kind review. I really appreciate it. It was very nice to meet and talk with you and your husband. I like to meet people, but when I meet travelers from where I used to live I'm even more excited! Thank you for reminding me of the city and country I really like. It was so much fun. Hope you had a great time in Korea. Have a lovely day. :-)
We had an amazing time at Noryangjin Fish Market, guided by Lee! She helped us explore a wide range of seafood we had never seen (let alone eaten) before. Everything was delicious and fresh, and we enjoyed Lee’s company and her South Korea trivia. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and educational visit to SK’s largest fish market!
Thank you very much for coming to the market. I really appreciate your kind review. It means a lot for me. I hope you had a great time in Seoul. Thank you again for choosing my tour as part of your travel in Korea. Have a lovely day. :-)
