Seoul Vegan & Vegetarian Gwangjang Market Food Tour (11 Tastings)

Enjoy authentic Korean market food with no meat, fish, egg, dairy, or honey—perfect for vegans and vegetarians. You’ll taste at least 11 different dishes and drinks, and everything is included in the price. Book now to secure your spot! I created this tour for my vegetarian family visiting from abroad, who struggled to figure out what they could safely eat in Seoul’s markets. I spent over a month in Gwangjang Market before my family came, checking ingredients and talking with each cook until I mapped a route for vegetarians. Since guiding my family, I kept researching and fine-tuning the route. Every stop is now fully plant-based, so both vegetarians and vegans can join with confidence. I handle all ordering and translation, so you can simply enjoy the food and stories. Important note: Gwangjang is a busy working market; some cross-contact or cross-contamination may occur, and the tour is not suitable for strict gluten-free diets or any food allergies.

Seoul: Small Group Cheorwon DMZ Tour with Lunch

Most DMZ tours stop at Paju. This one goes deeper — to Cheorwon, where the Korean War burned the hottest. Cheorwon sits at the edge of one of the world's last remaining Cold War frontlines. Few travelers make it here. We keep our groups small on purpose, so you get closer access, a more personal experience with your guide, and the space to let this place actually sink in. What You'll Experience Descend into the 2nd Infiltration Tunnel — dug through solid granite by North Korea and discovered in 1975. Then head to the observation deck for an unobstructed view straight into North Korea. Sit down for a healthy Korean lunch — seasonal vegetable bibimbap, naturally plant-based and vegan-friendly. End the day on the Han-tan River Y-shaped suspension bridge — 410 meters long, Korea's longest — with the gorge and river spread out below. Passport required for all DMZ tours. Tours operate rain or shine. DMZ access is subject to military regulations and may change without notice.
