Great and action packed evening tour in Seoul! I was traveling by myself and wanted a safe and informative evening activity. Our guide Sen was very organized, friendly, and knowledgable about history and local culture. There wasn't a question she couldn't answer! She also gave us some good tidbit stories of the famous sites we visited. It's a lot of walking, but it was an overall pleasant and fun atmosphere.

Our guide Helena was so friendly and fun. The food was amazing (don’t skip the octopus, it was so good!) and the sights were beautiful. I learned a lot about the palace and the temple, as well as each of the neighbourhoods we passed through. It is a walking tour, so be prepared to walk for two 30min stretches to get from one sight to another. An amazing tour, could not recommend enough.

The tour was great, there was a lot of storytelling and historical content was conveyed in an entertaining way. The food was delicious and filling. I would have liked a little break and a drink in the busy streets afterwards. But that would have been just the cherry on the cake. The length of the tour was perfect, not too long and not too short. At the end, tips were given for a quick way back, which was also very nice.
