Gabby is a great tour guide - Gabby is a fantastic tour guide. The tour was interesting, informative, fun and not too tiring. Gabby gave just the right amount of information allowing you to take it all in and also repeated important parts to help us remember. Gabby was welcoming and caring. Highly recommend this tour. The length of time at each place was also perfect; long enough to look around and feel immersed but never so long that you are left wondering what to do.

Great tour and guide - I visited with my husband and three kids ages 17, 14 and 6. Daria was our guide and was a lovely, wonderful guide. It was nice that we could get picked up at our hotel instead of having to meet somewhere else. Daria did a great job explaining about things before we arrived and keeping us on a schedule. We had enough time at each stop without taking too long.

Excellent DMZ and beyond - Seoul City Tours was excellent! I will add, Daria our English speaking tour guide did a fantastic job with the group. I had concerns about booking the trip and meeting up in the right place being in a foreign country and not knowing the language. The day before the tour I reached out to the tour leader through the number they provided and WhatsApp. They responded quickly and gave me all the confirmation and information I needed including the number of the van that was picking me up. There were so many different choices for hotel meeting places. I was not even staying in Seoul so I picked a meeting place, got a taxi early in the morning from Dongtan and went to one of the hotels. Waited in the lobby until the van picked and they took us to a central meeting place where we got on a big bus for the rest of the tour. That’s when Daria took over. She led us for the rest of the day and as I have said already she was fantastic! Very good communication with the group giving us all sorts of history on Korea! She made sure we were knowledgeable on what to expect throughout the day and what was needed to enter the DMZ! Daria was friendly, fun and professional leading us through the day. Making sure to count passenger and find everyone if needed so no one was left behind :) I highly recommend Seoul City Tours and I have never go wrong with booking with Viator! They don’t disappoint. Details in the descriptions were accurate and all correct!! I feel they do their background on these tours world wide! Wonderful day.

Really great tour, really great tour guide. But there is a shopping stop at the end. - There's quite a few outfits in Seoul that offer this same tour. I selected this one, because they said there would be no shopping. All in all the tour was excellent. Laura our tour guide did a great job. I was a little disappointed that we couldn't go to Panmunjom where the armistice was signed. But that has been off limits to tourists for several years because a crazy American soldier went to North Korea. But we did get to go to the DMZ, and on a beautiful clear day, got to see far into North Korea. Laura shared a lot of the tragic history. My only comment is that the last stop of the tour was basically shopping. I wasn't upset. It was only a 20-minute stop. Still, I think the description should be updated. I'm not going to subtract a star from what was a five-star door.

Top Notch tour experience! - Our tour guide is Laura. She is knowledgeable, funny, kind, and personable. I have knee problem, and she went out of her way to help me find a way to avoid the stairs. She made the tour very enjoyable. Great tour guide! Highly recommended.

Informative and Immersive Experience, One of the Best Things to Do in South Korea - Very informative and immersive tour. Lots of things to do, see and learn about the history between North and South Korea. The tour provides you with free time to explore by yourself, but the tour guide also thoroughly discusses and explains the amazing attractions. Action-packed day with a lot of things on offer. Highly recommend this package. Our tour guide was Yeoni, who conversed well in both English and Korean. She was very helpful to all your guests regardless of level of Korean proficiency and prior knowledge surrounding South Korea. Cultivated a relaxed atmosphere which made the trip even better.

Efficiently paced & unique tour - Solo was an amazing and funny guide. He was very helpful and informative at all stages. He moves the tour efficiently from point to point, all parts are very interesting and unique to Korea. Weather wasn't great unfortunately for viewing into the north from the observation point but it was February after all. 3rd floor deck was closed (military closure) so maybe pack some binoculars to view into the north just in case. I chose not to do the bridge and was back in Seoul by 2.30 ish. Overall and excellent and informative tour.
