Gangneung Jungang Market tours

was wonderful experience! guide was so sweet and informational and had a great energy. he even helped move a car out of the way of the bts bus stop so we could get good pictures! weather was great ride was smooth and saw many beautiful spots with a good amount of time for all of them!

Our guide, Lee, was very fun and engaging, making the trip more interesting. 1 hour at the market was insufficient as there was much more to explore around the market area including having to settle our lunch. Goblin scene breakwater was beautiful but nothing to be extremely awed about. BTS bus stop was also average only.

We loved everything about this tour. It was seamless! From the itinerary down to the schedule. The whole experience was perfect 🫰🏼I was expecting it to be a little on the serious side but it was made fun and enjoyable because of our lovely tour guide AJ from Seoul City Tour. She’s the best!

Thank you, Sky! Thank you for taking care of me and waiting for me even though I was 5 minutes late 🥹. As a solo traveler, I didn’t feel left out at all. He always asked me things like, “Do you prefer spicy?” or telling me, “It’s okay, they are serving single portions at the restaurant too.” I really liked the dakgalbi restaurant he took us to, it was delicious 😋. You did a great job.

Had a really fun day! We visited four places and everything felt well paced, not rushed at all. It was cold, but there were fewer crowds and the weather was great for photos. Our guide, Hakim, was friendly and professional, and kept us updated the whole time, even through chat. Definitely a memorable tour and one I’d recommend.

I was very excited to join this DMZ tour, as it has been on my bucket list since high school. Learning how ideology can separate one nation—and even siblings—is deeply painful yet incredibly eye-opening. Millions of lives have been affected by this division. Amid the ongoing tension between the DPRK and the ROK, we were able to see various forms of propaganda, such as the village, the competition to build the highest flagpole, and views toward the Kaesong Special Economic Zone. It was also interesting to learn that people now live around the DMZ and farm organic produce in the area. Our guide, Kelly, was very helpful and knowledgeable. She explained the historical and political context clearly, which made each place we visited much more meaningful. I brought my 7-year-old daughter along, and she was genuinely interested throughout the trip. One important note: this tour involves more than 15,000 steps, so be sure to come well-prepared and wear comfortable shoes. Highly recommended!

The tour was extremely well organized, from the beginning to the end. The guide, Alex, is very professional other than super funny, he helped us for taking pictures and entertained us during the long bus trip.

Mr. Young was a fantastic guide and driver for this day trip to Gangneung.. If you are interested in visiting cities on the east coast of Korea, this day trip is worthwhile as it covers many places..
