This is a roughly 2.5-hour food tour where you walk through Busan's signature markets, BIFF Square, Gukje Market and Jagalchi Market, with a local guide and taste street food and seafood.

One drink of somaek, makgeolli or a soft drink is included, and your guide's stories about Busan's modern history and its markets help you get to know the city more deeply.
