Strongly recommend if you looking for full day tour with pick up - This was a great tour, covering a few different and interesting locations. Gyeongbukgung Palace and the PSY statue in Gangnam was just amazing. Hong had lots of knowledge and provided interesting information, particularly on the history of each location. He answered lots of questions and was warm and welcoming. Speacilly my daughter liked it.

Best full day tour - I would definitely recommend this tour. Saw some great sites but I also really like the food stops and hole in the wall places that we stopped at. I would have never found them on my own.

It's like a $1000 tour! - I traveled the past and present of Seoul! It feels like a month-long trip in just one day. Guide Nina explained very well :) Thank you!
