Family food tour - Amazing food tour with Sanghee! Highly recons using the With Local site for tours we always have a great experience & the food is always very authentic. We were the only westerners in the places we went to so that’s when you know it’s local!

Yummy food - Family of 5. 16-89 year old. Do not eat anything before this tour. They give you massive amount of delicious food. Julian took us to places we missed when we were on our own just the day before. Wear comfortable shoes. A lot of walking. This tour takes place rain or shine. You will not need to eat for the rest of the day. Enjoy.

Fun and Delicious! - My brother and me enjoyed a private food tour with Julian, and it was a superb experience! Julian's deep knowledge of Korean cuisine, local eateries and history of Seoul made the tour both informative and delicious. He guided us through a couple of vibrant markets, explaining the history and ingredients of each dish we tried. Julian's friendly and engaging personality made the tour enjoyable along with providing a good historical perspective of Korea and its transformation over the past 30 years. If you're a food lover looking to explore Seoul's culinary scene and learn more about this amazing country, a tour with Julian is a must! Highly recommended!

The Best Experience - I highly recommend this tour…it was the best way to kick off our vacation in Seoul! Sanghee provided wonderful knowledge and conversations, in addition to introducing us to a variety of delicious Korean food and drinks! I’m so glad we didn’t miss out on this experience! Thank you, Sanghee!

Seoul food - Priscilla kindly guided my 8 year old daughter and I on an enjoyable evening out and about. She took us to different areas to sample street food, local restaurant dining, ice-cream and a trendy local cafe for coffee/tea to finish. She is easy company, good humoured and engaged beautifully with my initially reluctant daughter. Go hungry and leave full of food and fond memories of Priscilla and this awesome city.

Amazing Food & Outstanding Guide - My wife and I had a tremendous experience with Sanghee Priscilla as our guide for The Ten Tastings of Seoul: Street Food Tour. We have done many food tours over the years and this was one of the best. The food choices were excellent and we really enjoyed getting to know and learn from Sanghee Priscilla. We highly recommend this tour.

Private tour with local foodie - Our family really enjoyed our tour with Sanghee. She was so lovely and easy to talk to. We asked her many questions about local life in Korea and touristy things like best places to shop for x. She was also very thoughtful and patient. We got lost trying to find the meeting place and in the end had Sanghee found us. The tour itself was great. We go to Korean restaurants regularly where we are from but still tried many things we had not eaten before. Delicious things! In the end we got so full. Great experience. Highly highly recommend.

Worst experience - Very disappointed. We were charges almost $400 for the tour. It was supposed to be a food tour, but the guide took us to Tongin Market instead of Namdaemun market, gave us coupons worth not more than $30 and asked us to select the food we would like from the market. No explanation about the food, taste of the food, no recommendations. It was not a food tour at all, it felt more like a guide taking us to a market and asking us to eat whatever we like. Later as per the itinerary, there is supposed to take us to 2nd place for soup, but we were just told about the place and were not taken inside. We even asked for a partial refund as the itinerary was not followed at all. Worst experience ever
