Highly recommended! - Highly recommended! Joy is very knowledgeable and did a great job looking after the group. The food and snacks we had were amazing. Joy showed us the different alleys and shops that we wouldn't have known or gone otherwise. Saw different side dishes and unique delicacies, and even visited the Namdaemun gate nearby. Thanks Joy for a great time.

Took family of 5 12-6 and 2 adults - Sally was great. We got a good historic look at area while explaining how this 600 year old market had changed. And yet stayed the same. Food was really good. She knew the places to go. It’s fun to see people love their country.

New York eating in Seoul - Although, I was solo on the tour. My guide Soraya was amazing with making sure my experience was enjoyable. I recommend this tour because for the price, you get a lot of foods to sample and you see a lot of wonderful sites while walking & eating.
