amazing experience

Published on Mar, 2025

Photographer had a great eye for capturing natural moments. At the same time, the history tour was truly engaging, filled with small details I wouldn’t have noticed on my own. I highly recommend it!

Fun and interesting experience with friendly guides :)

Published on Feb, 2025

Booked this last minute on a whim and ended up having such a good time! The hanbok was so pretty and it was fun to walk around and see other people wearing it as well. James was very knowledgeable and told me a lot about the design details of the palace and the Joseon dynasty era. The 1:30 time slot meant we got to see the changing of the guards ceremony in front of the palace which was cool. Jacob was a fantastic photographer and they both made me feel very comfortable so I could get some beautiful pictures! I was the only person on the day I booked so we were able to have a good chat and talk about differences/ similarities between Korea and Australia. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Good experience

Published on Feb, 2025

I am a Korean traveling Seoul from different city. I had great time with Jacob. He told lots of historical background of the palace while walking. I like his pictures, too. 사진이 마음에 들어요.

Fun & Informative Seoul historical tour

Published on Feb, 2025

I highly recommend this tour for anybody who is visiting Seoul for the first time, or have never heard about the Gyeongbokgung Palace in detail. James & Jacob were so great as tour guide and photographer, and the hanbok they chose is great too. Jacob spent a lot of time looking for places to take photographs based on the weather, and I had so much fun playing dress up in the hanbok. James and Jacob answered so many of my random questions since it was my first time in Seoul. Highly recommend!

Hangbok experience

Published on Feb, 2025

It was a fun and educational experience. The guide was understanding with us moving our appointment. Such a great experience and great pictures as well. The guide was funny and made me and my friends laugh countless times. English was spot on. Would recommend no matter the season the area is great.
