The one to one guide with Edward was excellent. He was informative on the various goings on in the market which explored. His recommendations on the food side were excellent especially to a novice like me. I am very grateful for his knowledge and warmhearted nature - it made the experience more special. Thankyou Edward..
A great experience

My family and I had a great time with Sky on the food tour. He was kind, funny and met the needs of the group. Not only was he informative about the market but also knowledgeable of the history of the surrounding area. We would definitely recommend him as a tour guide. He was awesome! 5 Stars!!
Poor and waste of money

Unfortunately it was very disappointing. I could probably have done it myself without a guide. I was hoping for information about Korean food and little tasters along the way. We kinda walked through the market then went to a restaurant. No real advice or comments about the food or what was on offer. Other food tours elsewhere have been highlights of my trips. This was a real disappointment. I cannot recommend this tour

No forward planning .Considering this was our first introduction to Korean and wanted to learn, the guide was asking us what we wanted. Previous Food tours in other countries, we experienced food from different areas and wide cariety and organised.. We walked through a closed section of the market all to do with fabrics , however all covered. This lasted around 10 to 15 minutes. Not relevant. The food that weeventually ate was decided of where we could get access to. Not value for money and very little variety. Guide was very polite and respectful. Description of the tour did not match what we experienced

Jun walked us past food stall, explaining what foods were offered. Had a noodle bowl at the famous dumpling stall, then went for Korean pancakes. Had Korean donuts and banana milk. Then went to a fruit stall and hadoranges from Juju island. Walked along the stream.
Kind of a food tour...

Yes, the guide was super friendly. Yes we ate food. But that's about it. Instead of a food tour, it was more like: eat at a restaurant in the Gwangjang Market. The tour could be improved by taking guests around to the different stalls and trying the different foods, telling about the individual entrees, and some history about the market itself. Some tour members continued on to a walk past the Cheonggyecheon River area, but if you're looking for a food tour in the typical sense, probably look elsewhere.

Good experience for the walking tour in Gwangjang market and along the Cheonggyecheon. Taste the handmade Korean noodle soup and Kimchi mundu(dumpling) from the food stall as seen in Netflix. We are lucky to see the Seoul Lantern Festival during our visit(free exhibit by Seoul City).
Awesome experience.
