Best CB tour yet! - This was my 4th Culinary Backstreets tour and hands down the best. Eunice, super engaging, showed us the real Seoul, from chicken soup, beef tartare, amazing barbecue and markets. The tent bar after party not to be missed. Arrive hungry and thirsty. We will forever remember this day!

Don’t miss this experience! - Eunice was amazing! She gave us insights into the culture and brought us to places we would not have ventured on our own. A delicious and informative day.

A Delicious Peek Into a Seoul We Never Would Have Found On Our Own - Delicious, fascinating and tons of fun! Eunice was an absolute delight, and brought us to a series of delightful places we never would have found on our own. We fell in love with Seoul, its food, and its people and feel like we saw parts of town we would have completely missed otherwise. Eunice's insight on life in Seoul was wonderful, and we even learned some Korean drinking games at a sidewalk bar! Absolutely would recommend.
