Highly recommend! - I booked this tour last minute the night before— I have no regrets! We tried many different foods and drinks at the recommendation of our awesome guide, Jacob! He included tid bits about the Korean language, culture, and history of Gwangjang market in an engaging way and didn’t rush us through so it was an overall awesome experience. As a solo traveler, I highly recommend this experience: there are only so many foods you can try without having someone else to share with, so this was the perfect way to fit 10+ different foods in one meal! Playing Korean drinking games was a plus as that’s a part of the culture I wouldn’t have been able to experience while traveling solo!

Make friends and learn about Korean culture through food - Fantastic way to get an orientation to Korean culture through food. Our guide explained the history of the market and the role it plays in Korean life while showing us some of the highlights of local cuisine. Guide was so kind and answered all of the questions we posed. The first two items we were offered were vegan. The rest had kimchi (which is usually made with fish paste) or meat but I was enthralled by the sights and sounds of market and loved catching the vibes!

Night full of fun, laughs, and food - This night food market tour was amazing. Plenty of foods to sample and Jacob made the event fun and full of laughter. Would do it again and again just for his company. The food was extra. Love the live octopus and counting 3,6,9 game. Will have to bring that back home with me.

Come hungry - So much food. With the option to have extra at every stop, but you probably want to pace yourself so you can enjoy each stop. Jacob did a wonderful job of explaining the market, introducing each food, helping us practice basic korean, accommodating those with dietary needs, and, most importantly, making sure the group felt comfortable. While some guides could make an attempt at drinking games very awkward, Jacob kept it engaged, involved, and fun. Highly recommended, even for those who may not need an introduction to Korean foods.

Good Tour for Exploring a Market - A good tour, trying some of the more common staples of Korean foods as well as unique items. Young-Rok was a good host, informative and I liked his sense of humor. I enjoyed this tour.

Jacob is a great tour guide! - Great time. Jacob was absolutely AMAZING, and the crowd we were with were super fun as well. I don't usually enjoy food tours that much (usually go for my wife), but this was one with good food, GREAT story telling and guide, and an overall great experience. Would definitely recommend!
