So worth it. We walked around the markets and tasted a lot of Korean food options while learning about eating and drinking culture. It's the best way to go about and have a little taste of everything especially when you're there for a limited time.

This tour was great I loved that it moved to Insadong so covered much more than the market. Giwook was a great guide.

Highlights

This food tour starts at Gwangjang Market, one of the oldest and largest food markets in Seoul, and takes you on foot through the Ikseon-dong hanok village and Insadong to taste the dishes locals love. Sample more than 8 bites, from street food classics such as mung bean pancakes, dumplings, gimbap and tteokbokki to Korean honey snacks, cream buns and a secret dish revealed only on the tour. A local foodie guide leads you through hidden alleys and market stalls, sharing stories about the food and Korean eating culture. Wrap up at a quiet traditional tea house with herbal tea and rice cakes.


Program

Start at Gwangjang Market with
Seoul's signature street food

Meet your guide near Jongno 5-ga Station and head into Gwangjang Market, one of the oldest and largest food markets in Seoul. Over about 80 minutes, wander the market and taste crispy mung bean pancakes, savory dumplings, freshly made gimbap, chewy and slightly spicy tteokbokki, and tender minced fish fillet served with fish soup.

At some stops you can enjoy drinks that pair well with the food, and a secret dish revealed only during the tour awaits you. Choose the alcohol upgrade option to enjoy additional drinks.

 

Stroll the alleys of Ikseon-dong hanok village with snacks

After leaving the market, walk along a scenic route with time for photos and arrive at the Ikseon-dong hanok village, where time seems to slow down. Spend about 30 minutes exploring the hanok alleys and tasting a sweet honey snack you may have seen in K-dramas, a refreshing traditional rice drink and a sweet, creamy local bun.

 

Wander Insadong and finish at a traditional tea house

The final stop is Insadong. Spend about 40 minutes walking the streets and tasting local food, then relax at a quiet hidden tea house with freshly brewed herbal tea and grilled rice cakes. The tour ends in Insadong.

※ The tour runs rain or shine.
※ The itinerary may change depending on local conditions.
