Overview
Seoul’s food scene is one of Asia’s best, but it can be difficult to know which dishes to try if you can’t speak or read Korean. This food-and-drink tour takes the guesswork out of eating your way around the South Korean capital, by introducing you to a mix of signature and secret dishes from off-the-beaten-path eateries. Food and drink aren't included, but you'll visit inexpensive eateries favored by locals.

Terrific food tour!
Josee_G, Apr 2025
Mike was excellent. He tailored the food to our needs. We felt we got a great view of local food from someone who had tasted everywhere and knew where to go. He was very knowledgeable both about Korea and its food. We were traveling with two 13 year olds and they loved it as well as the adults!

It was so great to meet you ladies! I'm so glad you all had a great time!
Exceeded our high expectations

Mike is amazing--really knows the food scene in Seoul and gave us a great experience from street food and little snacks to fried chicken to bar food in a red tent on the side of the street. We'd had the usual Korean food at home so were looking to try stuff we haven't heard of, and Mike exceeded our expectations. Also really appreciated the beer, soju and makgeoli tastings. At first, the thought of having to pay for the food and drink in addition to the tour price was off-putting, but it really works out for the best in terms of getting to eat and drink what you want. It ended up being under $20 USD per person extra and our group was pretty adventurous and hungry! This was one of the best food tours we have ever done! Highly recommend!

Wow! Thank you so much Stephanie! Honestly you guys made it super enjoyable for me as well. I haven't had such an enthusiastic and curious group in a while. The amazing questions that you guys asked kept things fun and interesting. So thank you for that!

Mike is very knowledgeable and transparent with anything you ask. The tour was amazing, a must-do if you visit Seoul. Pro tip; if you’re adventurous, tell Mike you want to try fermented skate.
