This tour exceeded my expectations! Not only was it a small group, but we gor picked up at our hotel, and our guide, Jung, was lovely! She waa friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us great recommendations outside the tour. All the places were lovely and I was happy to see both traditional Seoul with some more modern areas included. Do yourself a favor and book this tour!!

A fun and very informative city tour lof Seoul. Two thumbs up for Henry, our guide, who’s super nice, very friendly and very patient. Wearing hanbok, Korea’s traditional costume walking around the Palace and going on top of the Seoul tower overlooking Seoul, in my opinion are the highlights of the tour.

Seoul City Tour- lots to see
Eugene_C, Nov 2025
Our tour guide Yujin was wonderful. It was a packed day, but we saw so many things. I highly recommend this tour. He was wonderful and knew so much about all of the sights. Had a great day, lots of pictures and memorable experiences.

Excellent day out in Seoul
Jake_H, Nov 2025
If you’re looking for a good overview of some of the highlights of Seoul, this tour is highly recommended. Every stop on the tour was worthwhile and fun. Our tour guide Joey went above and beyond. My wife was born in Seoul and then got adopted and grew up in the United States. Upon telling Joey this, she went out of her way to research how my wife can search for her birth family during her lunch break while we had free time in Gwangjang Market. In addition to being a great tour guide, she was very nice and took the time to talk with all of us. We took several tours in Seoul and this was one of the best and most memorable.

Fell head over hills for Korea after this tour
Justyna_P, Nov 2025
We saw all of Seoul in one day, and it was incredible! Jake was an amazing guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and totally tuned into what we wanted. Bukchon Hanok Village blew us away; honestly, it even outshines Kyoto’s geisha district. Can’t recommend this enough!

Daniel_G, Oct 2025
The amount of places visited and the time to explore them were perfect! I really recommend renting and wearing the Hanbok, it made the experience even more incredible! 👏 Our tour guide was Henry, he is the best! He was very kind, approachable, always taking care of all of us and giving us amazing history details, tips and recommendations. The vehicle transporting us was a modern and very comfortable van, very clean as well. I would definitely recommend this tour and would even repeat again in the future!

Perfect Seoul Tour in a Day — Amazing Guide Joey
trinidad_c, Oct 2025
We were in Seoul for just two days, and this single tour let us experience so many amazing attractions without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. The customer service was outstanding — the team reached out beforehand and again on the morning of the tour to make everything smooth and stress-free. Our guide Joey was phenomenal — friendly, informative, patient, and full of great energy! She answered all our questions about Korean pop culture, history, and even gave us shopping recommendations. One of our favorite moments was dressing up in hanbok and taking photos at the palace — Joey was so kind and enthusiastic about helping us get great shots. We also loved exploring Gwangjang Market, trying delicious street food, and seeing highlights like Bukchon Hanok Village, N Seoul Tower, and the Tea Ceremony. The entire day was well-organized and memorable from start to finish. I also appreciate that they hand out a laminated card with our guides name and contact information in case we get separated. If you only have a short time in Seoul, this tour is absolutely perfect — you’ll see and experience so much without ever feeling rushed. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend for seeing sights of Seoul in comfort!
Heather_U, Oct 2025
We were fortunate to be the only two on our tour which allowed for it to be very personal and adaptive to our interests and timing. Yu-Jin was a lovely tour guide, explaining the history and significance of all the sights, taking exceptional photos of us along the way too. He timed each of the sights perfectly to avoid crowds and lineups. This was a perfect tour to see many famous sights in Seoul in one day, and in the comfort of a van and knowledgeable tour guide.
