We are Koreabylocal Travel Company, a KTO(Korea Tourism Organization)-certified agency specializing in authentic Seoul experiences. This tour is designed for travelers who like to experience what is Real Korea & Real Korean Way of Life!
This tour is more than just a trip!

Every ingredient is 100 % plant-based, so vegans, vegetarians and curious foodies can all roll up their sleeves together. While the cakes steam, sip seasonal Korean tea and hear the stories behind rice-cake culture— from harvest festivals to modern cafés— then capture your creations at our “rainbow zone” photo corner before boxing them up (plus a custom photocard and PDF recipe) to share or savor later. It’s part hands-on workshop, part edible souvenir, all within ten minutes of Gimpo Airport— a sweet layover escape you won’t find anywhere else.
