A lot in a short time

Published on Nov, 2024

This half day tour packs in a lot. You get to see the palace and the changing of the guard ceremony. This is a quick lesson in Korean history and culture. If you are in Seoul on a short visit this is the tour for you.

Great city tour

Published on Nov, 2024

We were able to learn a lot of history about Korea and the previous dynasties. June was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions.

Great half day tour

Published on Jun, 2024

Our tour with Lee (spelling?) was terrific. She was a great host and shared a lot of tips about the temple and palace we visited. The tour host and driver were very prompt and gave us a good lunch and shopping recommendation for after the tour. I would use Viator again on my next trip to Seoul!

Fast paced and fun intro to Seoul

Published on May, 2024

This was a great introduction to some Seoul highlights on our first day here! KC was great in keeping the group moving and covering a lot of stops in 4 hours. We'll plan to go back and visit some of the stops again, especially the folk museum, to spend more time experiencing them, but this was well worth it.

Palace Tour

Published on Jan, 2023

Great informative tour of the palaces. Our guide went in depth and was accommodating. The palace grounds are beautiful and a great way to be acquainted with the traditions and history of Korea.
