South Korea · WINE TOURS
Every trip has one free day too few. These 4 wine tastings justify the slot, priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and get back to the fun part of planning.
4.5-hour hike on Geumjeongsan in Busan, then Makgeolli with banchan at a mountain village Pocha-style stall for small-group fun.
“We really enjoyed our tour. It was a nice small group of four people total. Our guide was great and very accommodating. For lunch it was even possible to revise the food to be vegetarian, which was really nice. Would highly recommend.”
Hike Geumjeongsan with a small local guide, then enjoy banchan and Makgeolli in a mountain village above Busan.
“Our hike with Jun Woo was amazing. Beautiful area, amazing views and perfect to be out in nature and still being close to the city. Jun Woo took great care of us and had a lot to share about his beautiful country.”
Sinchon, Seoul: 150-minute Korean BBQ and wine pairing dinner with a short neighborhood walk and beginner wine lesson for $49.
“This was such a nice experience! I booked it as a surprise for my mum who is visiting me in Korea. I thought we might need some conversation with others by this point in the trip… I can’t recommend this enough. There was only us and one other person on our tour. Taser was a very good host who knew a lot about the area, Sinchon and about wine. But he was also very thoughtful, and interesting and great to talk to. As was the other guest on the tour which made for a great few hours enjoying lovely food and wine, and great company. It really was something different…”
80-minute makgeolli and soju tasting in Hapjeong, led by sommelier Jay and brewer Sam, sampling rare rice wines in a mall backroom.
“GREAT tour!! Sam was incredibly knowledgable and fun -- I would highly recommend to learn more about Makgeolli and Soju :)”
Pick the kind of day. We ranked the rest.
