Best Seoul city tour - Charles rocks ;) - To our tour guide, Charles :I just wanted to send a quick thank you for the fabulous tour today. You truly made the day special! Your extensive knowledge and friendly demeanor were fantastic. I really appreciated you guiding us through both the historical and modern aspects of Seoul so expertly in English. The tour was fantastic overall: from the palace, temple and museums, traditional village, beautiful city and natural landscapes to the traditional food and opportunities for gift shopping, without forgetting the Seoul Tower. For anyone considering a tour of Seoul, this is a great option if you want to see some of the main attractions of the city in just one day. Thank you again for a memorable experience!

Great time ! Tour guide Lizzy rocks. - Our tour guide Lizzy and our bus driver were 10/10 incredible!! We were visiting right before the big presidential election, and I really liked hearing about Lizzie’s reflection on her experiences and the change in the city from her grandmothers experience to her moms and hers. Very friendly communicative, attentive, thoughtful, and punctual. I went with family and we really enjoyed the Buddhist temple which was beautifully adjourned with lanterns for Buddha’s Birthday, the Palace and changing of the guard, and Ntower views were also great. We did not go up the Ntower but views from the mountain were nice, and there was lots going on in the plaza at the summit… smog partially obstructed our views half of the time but cleared up for us fortunately. Our least favorite part was the ginseng museum as there was a lot of sales pressure and it was too long, but the tea sample was good and the people there were friendly and professional. Overall, the tour was good for families trying to see the big tourist spots, but less time at the ginseng museum would be preferable.
