Gangneung Jungang Market tours

this was so much fun! jesse our tour guide have been very accommodating and kind and cheerful. only thing I'd like to recommend is to ensure that in the Goblin filming location, they take the tourists to the correct rocky part where euntak and kim shin met. additionally, there's a picture of the goblin couple in a TV-like frame and we didn't go there. i hope the tour also recommends tourists to go to the gelato place/s particularly dokkaebi gelato during the Goblin filming location part, to make the experience more worthwhile. I also hope this tour can show the other spots with Goblin mementos like the ones I ran to for pictures I attached here. but indeed this tour made my gongyoo-fangirl heart happy.

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.

PLK was very communicative when our boat voyage portion was canceled and the quickly offered an alternative (suspension bridge). We still enjoyed the tour nonetheless and our tour guide Paul made the experience worth it! He weaved in personal anecdotes, jokes, and history smoothly, while allowing us adequate time at each stop. We never felt rushed and always had time for pictures and the restroom. Food was great as well! Thank you for the amazing experience. Highly recommend! Thank you again and go team Paul!!

We really enjoyed the tour. Thank you for walking us to the history of the Korean Peninsula. We appreciate everything. Till our next visit. Hope to see join your tour again or maybe see you in PH. Maraming Salamat, Ms. Katie! 🫰🏻

We had an amazing time on the tour! Our guide, Nancy, was super friendly and helpful. She had really great stories and insight throughout the day. We had rainy weather in the morning but Nancy rearranged the trip so that we could see the observatory when it was sunnier. The food in the Unification Village was great and really cheap too for all you can eat ($8). We also had the opportunity to ride the gondola and it was only $7. I'm really glad that we booked the tour and Nancy was the best guide that we could ask for. I would highly recommend it.

Kenny is hands down the best guide you could ask for. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely passionate about Korean history. He made every stop meaningful and kept the group engaged the entire time. The tour was smooth, well-organized, and unforgettable—thanks to Kenny. Highly recommend!

Jake is a fun and super friendly guide. We really enjoyed the trip thanks to his enthusiasm and warmth. The museum visit is spectacular. The walk doesn't feel tiring because the places to visit are spaced out along the way. We loved it!

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..
