Will tour this tour again in future
I took the 18 June 5 pm tour with my mother and daughter. Kevin Lee was our guide. It was a fascinating and fantastic experience touring the market and learning about Korean food culture. Kevin was an engaging guide who made the entire experience enriching and fun. He would share his personal experiences and insights while making all of us comfortable during the tour. My mother and daughter enjoyed themselves tremendously. Tour was well-paced with sufficient access to restrooms. You get to sit down and rest at about two locations. Will join this tour again with the rest of the family in future.

Great activity, history and food.
Hands down best meal in Seoul. This was such a fun experience and so tasty! Definitely recommend booking this tour if considering. We received history about the dishes and recipes/homework to make them at home and send pictures. Can't wait to try making these dishes at home.

An Unforgettable Night Tour of Seoul with Kim
My family and I loved this private tour with Kim.
All the views of Seoul this night tour provided were second to none. Going up to the tower was awesome. Naksan Park at night is a game changer when it comes to great views of Seoul at night. The Kwangjang Market is historic along with the foods/snacks. Kim’s attention to detail on this tour was terrific as he explained and showed us how a traditional Korean BBQ is done. Kim educated my family and I on this tour and we are truly grateful to him. Thank you Kim for a job well done!

Seoul Night Palace & Market Food Tour with Vehicle
He knows everything about the Palace so he can answer any questions you might have then it’s really nice to get a ride to the Market - the food there is amazing and he’s got connections there so you don’t have to wait long for the food to come out at all! It was amazing and the Buddhist temple was so gorgeous.

Hands on experience!
This was a great time. Easy meetup outside the subway. We got a guided tour through the market (which was much less crowded with tourists than the Gwangjang market in Jongno I’d been to) and a bit of time to explore on our own. Then we went to the cooking school where each participant had their own cooking station. Everything was really well-planned and the food itself was truly delicious! Impossible to know ahead how a group is going to be, but ours was really fun. Great people to hang out with and enjoy the evening.

100% recommended 👌 great cookery experience in seoul.
Our host was amazing 👏
She explained all the dishes & informed us on exactly what to do.
Can't fault this experience, I'd 100% recommend.
I'd definitely arrive on an empty stomach though, we ate breakfast beforehand and had to ask to takeaway our leftovers.
(They do provide containers for this)
Everything about this experience was amazing 👏

Olivia was amazing. This...
Olivia was amazing. This is one of my favorite things I did in Seoul. We made 7 different dishes and had so much food leftover it was my lunch and dinner! Some of the best food I had on my trip as well. The school is so organized and clean. I would absolutely go back and 10/10 recommend.

This was such a great...
This was such a great experience! The tour of the market was so fun and informative, and we got to try some snacks there as well. The class was amazing, and the food we made was so delicious. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to learn how to make some Korean dishes!

Best part of our trip!!!
Mike has deep connections in the market. With Mike’s experience, we experienced parts of Seoul that we wouldn’t have known, including a few rooftops, a back alley that serves just about everything raw, and a few tents that make better food than anyone else in town.
What our group really like was the flexible nature of the tour. It was up to us how deep into Korean Cuisine and how many Korean beverages we wanted to experience (so don’t forget to bring the recommended won before the tour so that you can splurge if you want to!!!).
This was the best part of our trip and I hope to see Mike again when I return to Seoul!

Such a great experience!
This was the first cooking class I've ever taken and it was such a wonderful experience. We were taken through the market and the different types of ingredients, fruits, and veggies were explained to us along with being able to try some gimbap and donuts. Our guide was super knowledgeable, fun, and passionate about food. The cooking class was done in her house and it was set up beautifully. I was able to make a whole Korean meal with multiple dishes and side dishes and it was enough food so that I couldn't even eat dinner later that night. It was such a good tour, highly recommend!

Last minute experience of a lifetime!
Excellent time learning new cooking skills from another culture. Our instructor, Yeunju, was welcoming, kind, amazing, fun, and extremely helpful. She explained the origin, & gave personal experiences that were very helpful. Better than eating at a out at a restaurant. This was a wonderful experience!

Great Introduction to Korean Cooking
This was a really enjoyable way to spend part of the day in Seoul. We began with a visit to a local market, where the chef introduced key ingredients and offered helpful insight into Korean food culture. Then we headed to the nearby cooking school to get started.
The class followed a fun, hands-on rhythm—we’d cook a dish or two, then sit down together to enjoy what we made before returning to the kitchen to cook more. The chef guided us clearly through each step, and the staff helped keep things running smoothly by finishing off dishes, clearing plates, and handling cleanup.
We left full and satisfied, with recipes in hand and a better appreciation for the ingredients and techniques behind Korean cuisine. A relaxed and well-run experience that’s definitely worth doing if you're looking to try something different during your time in Seoul!
