Description:

Spend an exciting day of immersion in both the food and culture of South Korea. Discover the true flavors of Seoul with a food-loving private guide, venture into a bustling market, and visit the city's historic sites, including the Jogyesa temple and the Korean Folk Village.

Be picked up in a comfortable private vehicle, get acquainted with your guide, and tour the city's lively street-food locations. Treat your palate to the exotic tastes and aromas of local dishes, such as bulgogi, kimchi, and bibimbap, and listen to your guide's insight into Seoul's fascinating food culture.

Next, stroll through Gwanjang market and learn interesting tidbits about essential Korean ingredients and specialties. From there, head to Insadong, one of the city's most famous shopping districts. Browse the large range of products and test your bargaining skills against the witty vendors.

Break for a delicious lunch at a local restaurant before continuing on to the hip neighborhood of Hongdae, Seoul's brimming cultural hub. Afterward, visit ancient Jogyesa temple, which houses the largest Buddhist shrine in Seoul.

Your last stop is the Bukchon Hanok Village. Step back in time to the reign of the Joseon dynasty and learn about Korean life during this historic period. Admire the intricate architectural details of the buildings and gain further insight into Korean folk customs.
