This was exactly what I wanted - a deep dive into Seoul’s restaurants and night markets - led by the wonderful Chloe. I loved the fact she took us to street food restaurants - and did not skimp on the spice and the authentic tastes, explaining how traditional dishes are prepared and served and eaten. The night food market was amazing- and we even spotted the woman featured in the Netflix Doc- I highly recommend!
Thank you for your fantastic review! We are so glad to hear that Chloe provided the deep dive into Seoul’s food scene you were looking for. It’s great to know you enjoyed the authentic spice and traditional flavors of the street food! We believe that understanding how dishes are prepared and eaten is key to a true cultural experience. Spotting the star from the Netflix documentary at the market must have been a thrilling highlight of your night! We are thrilled that the atmosphere of the night market exceeded your expectations. We hope to welcome you back for another delicious adventure in Korea soon!
Amazing selection of food outside of the main tourist area, learned about Korean food, culture and lifestyle. Enjoyed a fun drinking game and made great friends.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the Food tour and had a meaningful experience. We hope to welcome you again in the future!
