About this activity

Join one of our local Seoul hosts to discover the bustling center of the city’s most time-honored economy; marketplaces. Whilst the city itself is a shining beacon of cosmopolitan modernity, it still houses these traditional nods to its past in the form of street markets. You could shop for the latest fabrics at a renowned fashion market, visit Korea’s largest fish market at dawn or simply eat your way around a night market and taste some street food. You might just need to find extra room in your suitcase for everything you end up buying!

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
