We had an absolutely fantastic time on the Chicken and Beer tour! Simon was our guide and took us to the most delicous places! Our first stop was so incredible, we went back the next night to really indulge ourselves. (We were pacing ourselves for the rest of the evening on the tour!) The food was perfect, the environment was real, local, not touristy. Simon was a wonderful guide too. So full of stories and information. A real gentlemen too for one of the tour members. He carried her gigantic Olive Young bag for her! :) We were a family of three with our young adult son and we all loved this tour. All three restaurants were special, delicious and abundant in their offerings. We had plenty of soju too and it was delicious too. I highly recommend this tour!! We will definitely check out some of their other experiences next time we visit!
