We thoroughly enjoyed our food tour! Despite the rainy weather, our guide, Katrina, was incredibly accommodating, adjusting the schedule to ensure we could start once the rain subsided. The itinerary provided a good introduction to the local market and some history. Katrina was such a delight to talk to—her English is excellent, and she was truly engaging and we like how respectful she is when giving her opinions on topics discussed. It felt less like a formal tour and more like walking around the city with a knowledgeable friend who got insider tips. The food inclusive with this tour makes the package reasonable. Overall, it was an excellent experience!
It was such an amazing experience! David accommodated all of my concerns and made the tour very enjoyable. The tour is also solo-traveler friendly, so if you’re traveling alone, you won’t have any problems joining. This is definitely a must-try experience when visiting Busan! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a great time with David and another couple. The tour was very diverse and enriching; time flew by. We enjoyed the visit to Jagalchi Market, learning about the neighborhood's history, the view of the port, dinner, snacks, Gukje Market, and more. You can really feel David's love for his city. I highly recommend this tour! (Tip: don't eat too much before the tour 😉)
David was such a sweetheart and generous with the time we had. He was even able to accommodate me showing up late and came to find me. The food tour was very generous and David ran the tour with efficiency. Highly recommend!
Can’t recommend this tour enough! David was such a pleasure to meet!! Gave a wonderful and succinct background of Busan and the markets. Ate like a local! We had so much fun. David also has a keen eye for photography!
Our tour with David to Bukje Market and BIFF Square was absolutely brilliant! We were thrilled with the vibrant atmosphere of the fish market and the bustling energy of BIFF Square. The food was delicious, and David led us to some fantastic local treats that delighted our taste buds. What we appreciated most was David’s exceptional accommodation for our one-year-old son. He was incredibly thoughtful, ensuring we had breaks and adjusting the pace to make the experience enjoyable for our family. Overall, David made our adventure unforgettable, and we highly recommend him for anyone looking to explore the flavors and sights of this incredible city!
David was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable about the area and had some great local spot. I would definitely recommend booking if you want a great food experience in busan
We had a lovely food tour! Kim was very kind and share with us so many delicious dishes! Really the best start to our trip in Busan!! Delicious and very interesting!
