Enjoy authentic Korean market food with no meat, fish, egg, dairy, or honey—perfect for vegans and vegetarians. You’ll taste at least 11 different dishes and drinks, and everything is included in the price. Book now to secure your spot! I created this tour for my vegetarian family visiting from abroad, who struggled to figure out what they could safely eat in Seoul’s markets. I spent over a month in Gwangjang Market before my family came, checking ingredients and talking with each cook until I mapped a route for vegetarians. Since guiding my family, I kept researching and fine-tuning the route. Every stop is now fully plant-based, so both vegetarians and vegans can join with confidence. I handle all ordering and translation, so you can simply enjoy the food and stories. Important note: Gwangjang is a busy working market; some cross-contact or cross-contamination may occur, and the tour is not suitable for strict gluten-free diets or any food allergies.

Whether you're a complete beginner or a fermentation enthusiast, you'll leave with the knowledge, confidence, and inspiration to keep brewing long after your trip to Korea.

Classic: 2-hour walking tour | Craft: walk + craft-making I grew up in these alleys, long before Bukchon became one of Seoul's most photographed neighborhoods. To walk through Bukchon is to walk toward the roots of Korean history and culture — where the questions travelers carry about Korea begin to find their answers. From 1392 to the 1980s, this neighborhood sat at the center of Korean political and cultural life. And it hasn't stopped shaping how the world sees Korea: Bukchon's hanok rooflines recently appeared as a backdrop in KPop Demon Hunters. Since February 2025, those who wanted to know Korea more deeply have walked these alleys. Your guide is a Bukchon native, filmmaker, and screenwriting professor, weaving personal history into six centuries of Korean history. Before you book: Best for those with genuine interest in history or culture (ages 13+) Thoughtful, conversation-paced walk Comfortable shoes, water recommended Restrooms at 30/60/90-min marks
