Experience the best of
Busan with Withlocals

"Having a diet both gluten and lactose free ( not allergy), I thought I won't be able to eat anything on the street food tour and i was totally wrong. I had delicious kimchi mung beans pancakes, gimbap, rice punch, while the others in our group enjoyed many other local delicacies. Lisa was a wonderfull guide and made sure i had as well my share of tastings in this tour. I really appreciate the effort taken to find places where i can eat as well. The whole experience was really good and i wholeheartedly recommend it. "

"I'd highly recommend connecting with Lia. She made our time in Busan very special. She was kind and us around the Jagalchi Market for food and drinks. It was like hanging out with an old friend. Book this tour"

"Lia met us outside of the Jalachi Seafood Market and we were off Foodie Touring. Many of the vendors had aerated holding tanks chocked full of fresh Live Seafood. Her We saw fresh live Snow Crab, Lobsters, Red Snapper, Grouper, Sole, Flounder, Other Fish, Abalone, Conchs, Green Lipped Mussels, Scallops, Other Shellfish, Sea Cucumbers, Sea Squirt and a host of other delicacies. We settled on having Grilled Flounder and Lia led us to the Vendor who was “Best” in this category. They weighed it and came out to 1.5 Kg - a mighty big Dude. Fifteen minutes later the Grilled Flounder was served to us & Lia skillfully deboned that prize fish. Great Tasting Fish !!! Next she took us to a Dancing Shrimp Vendor - usually they are eaten raw, but we got ours steam / was Great ! Then she took us to a Vendor for Octopus, specifically small ones. Presto, two we picked, cleaned, cut up and served in a bowl. Problem was that the Tentacles were still tmoving all around. (Koreans like them raw / but not us.) We got them steamed and very, very tasty. All in All, it was an amazing Seafood Foodie Tour with Lia. She is wonderfully bilingual, knowledgeable and personable. You’ll Love her ! Don’t miss this Tour. Enjoy ………"

"Lia was amazing, super helpful and knowledgable about the area. She took us to some incredible spots around Jagalchi Market and the street food near by. Definitely worth doing if travelling to Busan! Thanks so much Lia! "

"Lia was a fabulous tour guide! She is very knowledgeable about the fish market and surrounding market area! We had a wonderful time!"

"We had a great time and really enjoyed the ten tastings with Aulia. She's friendly, funny, thoughtful, knowledgeable about Busan, Korean food, history, and so much more! The food at every stop was amazing - thanks for sharing your hidden gems!"

"With A Guide Who Went Above and Beyond in Busan… Extra Kindness Included We had an absolutely wonderful afternoon exploring thanks to our fantastic tour guide, Aulia. From start to finish, everything was handled seamlessly and with such warmth and enthusiasm. Aulia took us to the street market at the former site of the Busan International Film Festival, (truly a sight to behold) where we enjoyed incredible local food and got a true taste of the city’s vibrant culture. It was the kind of experience you wouldn’t likely find on your own, and it was delicious. We then visited Busan Tower for beautiful views of the city and the harbor, and explored the colorful hillsides of Gamcheon Culture Village. Our guide shared helpful insights and stories along the way that really brought each place to life. Honestly, Aulia helped to make Busan an unexpected highlight of our trip. She was so thoughtful and helpful. She even went out of her way to help us send a package of gifts to our nieces in the United States, K-Pop fans who will be utterly delighted when it arrives! The extra kindness meant so much. At the end of the tour, Aulia made sure we were delivered right to our ship, making our departure completely stress-free. Everything was handled beautifully — organized, informative, and always with a smile. If you’re visiting Busan, we can’t recommend her highly enough!"

"Aulia is a wonderful guide, really accommodating, thoughtful tips, excellent dishes selected to try and overall a fabulous tour. Highly recommend for your time in Busan. "

"great option as a solo traveler. my tour with aulia felt like spending an evening with a friend. over our shared meal at jagalachi, we discussed life in busan, the general food culture and recommendations for the rest of my time there. we strolled the nearby nightmarket afterwards as well. aulia is very friendly, knowledgable and professional. we covered so much in a short time and had fun. i would definitely recommend her as a guide. "

"Aulia has a lovely, warm personality. I struggle with Korean food and didn’t want more travelling. We asked Aulia to pick us up at our apartment and together we would find something I could eat without getting ill again. She did this with great charm even though it was inconvenient for her. We had a lovely evening. Highly recommended. "
