This is a great tour option to start off with for first time visitors to Seoul. My tour guide, Sunny, spoke fluent English and provided a lot of useful information. You get to move at your own walking pace so there was ample opportunity for photo stops and exploring. The tour ends at Gwangjang Market, which is a must visit for all foodies. Highly recommended!
Must eat at namdaemoon market is red bean steam bread !! Jjin ppang
Get more korean food weight before you leave korea .
It was really good experience that I listened to the story about ‘Changdeokgung Palace’ from our excellent tour guide. Not flashy but antique and has long history.. Interesting!
I’d like to highly recommend that place.
In case of ‘Insa-dong’, I felt like old style and new style are mixed. Buildings are modernistic and traditional at once. They sell many interesting traditional stuffs. So, bought many traditional goods related to Korea.
