Tour Gastronômico Vegano de Meio Período no Mercado Gwangjang

Jungho was such a great guide providing important information about how foods are prepared that may have unknown meal based additions in seemingly vegetarian foods. He is personable and our group had such a great time together. He even worked with me on the level of spice I could handle. I highly recommend this tour if you are vegan or vegetarian or even love meat but want to try veg options. Save room for the yummy donuts at the end!

Because his family is vegetarian, tour guide Jungho meticulously sought out a variety of delicious and authentic Korean street foods in the massive Gwangjang Market. Following his footsteps through the market, you realize how incredibly difficult it is to carefully compare and avoid animal-derived ingredients. This would be impossible without love for his family. I'm delighted to have been the first Taiwanese person to participate in this tour. The main dietary design for this tour is Western vegetarian; friends who avoid the five pungent spices can inquire beforehand.

I loved it! I’m a very awkward person but Jungho was very friendly and informative, I didn’t feel pressured at all and the overall vibes were very welcoming. It’s hard to find vegetarian food options, and it’s extremely difficult to find vegan food options, Jungho gave us plenty of places to choose from. Would definitely recommend to any struggling vegetarians/vegans, or really anyone!

This was such an excellent tour. If you’re a vegetarian or vegan in Korea, you’ll know it can be a bit of a challenge to find authentic korean food. But this tour was a fantastic opportunity to explore the market and enjoy delicious Korean food. We tried a variety of Korean staples like gimbap, bibimbap, and mung bean pancakes (with rice wine for those wanting to try!), and more! I really enjoyed spending the evening with Jungho despite the cold, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone who’s interested in trying authentic Korean cuisine 🥢

we did a vegan food tour with Jungho, and it was one of the best experiences we had in Seoul! he was SO knowledgeable, and taught us a lot about Korean culture. Definitely plan to come hungry. as there is so much delicious food to eat! My daughter’s favorite was the mung bean pancakes. Would HIGHLY recommend!!

When Jungho says to arrive hungry, believe him. We ate and drank to our hearts content and learned so much about Korean food and culture. Special highlights were the kimbap, the rice wine, and the doughnuts at the end (no photos we ate them too fast). A great tour for vegans, vegetarians and worth it for anyone at all.

6 stars!! Amazing tour with amazing food by amazing host Jungho. We walked around the market, talked about Korean food and drinking culture and had lovely bites and drinks. Would totally recommend the tour to anyone.

The tour with Jungho was a blast! We had the best time with him and the group tasting and trying delicious foods and drinks. He even invited us to a special kind of rice wine 🍶We highly recommend the tour and there was more than enough food for everyone. Thanks so much for the fun evening!

This tour exceeded my expectations. Jungho was a great guide. He explained the history of the market and found some exceptional places for vegan food. Learning about the food and customs was great too. The food was amazing. I particularly loved the tteokbokki, but it was all great. I would definitely recommend this as a must for vegans and vegetarians in Seoul!

Our tour guide Jungho was super nice! He is super informative and has so much knowledge on the market! The tour is definitely worth it as we got to try so much delicious veganised korean meals! Small side note, go for this tour hungry and be ready to EAT a lot! really really fun. The tour guide also went out of his way to get hs non alcoholic drinks since we said we dont drink Alcohol and he also gave us a small food gift to take home with us! thank you so much Jungho! we really enjoyed it!
