Amazing way to discover Korean food - Suha created something incredibile. This tour gives you a gist of Korean food culture and tradition. Really well organized, we got to eat so much food and explore the market as well. We ended up getting ramen and ice-cream in a wonderful neighborhood. Really suggested: it may seem pricey, but super worth it!!

A Fun Evening - We had so much fun on the food tour with Suha. She has such a warm and welcoming personality and I liked that it was such a small group and we got to try so many different foods. Suha took us to some great places that we wouldn’t have found on our own. I highly recommend this tour to introduce you to different types of Korean food and enjoy an evening out!

Great food, not much sweet options - This was a great tour with a variety of different food - some delicious, some kind of weird, but definitely worth trying - along with interesting facts about the dishes and some great locations I wouldn't have found on my own. I would have liked some more sweet dishes (we had gorgeous icecream and otherwise all the food was savoury), but I don't know what I would have cut out to make room for it (and you do need to make room).
