We can’t recommend this tour enough. Min is so knowledgeable and friendly and it’s a great way to get to know Seoul through a local. We also met lovely people on the tour. Highly recommend if you’re ever in Seoul! It was so much fun and a great evening.

Min is an angel. I recommend her highly. It feels like you have a friend showing you around, not just a guide. It’s a touristy area, but she finds the quality spots that go beyond what you see on Netflix. Don’t miss a chance to join Min!

As huge fans of street food walks, we have to say this was hands down one of our best tours in Asia! October weather is just perfect for hot comfort food paired with great drinks, and Min organized everything flawlessly. We walked, ate, drank, laughed our heads off, and then ate some more. The tour is beautifully organized, and we absolutely loved every single dish. Our only tiny regret is that we couldn’t finish it all — though we honestly tried our best! We got super lucky and ended up being the only two people in the group, so Min was basically our private guide. We are obsessed with Korean cuisine, and it was incredible to finally try the dishes we’ve only ever seen online. Plus, Min shared so many cool culinary tips and details that we’re definitely taking home to use in our own kitchen. In our opinion, this tour is seriously underrated on the website and deserves to be ranked way higher. Min is such a fun, knowledgeable, and modern Korean woman who is truly passionate about food

10/10 - we can't recommend highly enough. Min was super friendly and we got a Greta introduction to Korean food - we tasted a hugh variety and things we would have not ordered on our own. One of the best food trips we have done.
