About this activity

1200+ reviews, 4.96 from another platform.

Food is included in the tour price.

Are you looking for street food in Korea? This tour takes you to Korea's famous two markets, Gwangjang Market and Dongdaemun Market. We'll visit a handful of well-known shops and many hidden gems.

It is really difficult to choose a good food stall from a crowded place. The competition is quite furious. People are shoving with each other. Street vendors are yelling at you to sit down. You don’t know what to eat and what ingredients foods have! That is why! You need a proper guide for street food here.

The market is still evolving rapidly today, and there is a complex connection between the foods of the past and the present. I'll help you understand what it really is through this tour.
