Seoul city seen in a new light! ☺️ - I booked onto this brilliant walking tour as part of my solo travels. James and Jacob were friendly, and gave an interesting tour of Seoul City. We even had photos taken but the team made us feel comfortable (we laughed a lot!). I learnt a lot during the tour as well as getting to see cool spots of the city that I probably wouldn’t have seen myself! I thoroughly recommend booking it’s worth every penny ☺️

A tour in Seoul you won't want to miss! - James and Jacob are the perfect guides to show you the secret side of Seoul that no one else, but locals, know about. During this time they will share Josen and moden history and while you are taking in the sites, they integrate a candid photo shoot of your time spent touring the area. The tour guides are personable and funny, so expect to feel welcomed and to laugh alot! I would give this tour 10 stars if I could!

Truly a hidden gem - I had booked this special tour for my last evening in Seoul: And everything was truly special that evening: we walked through an area that is probably not mentioned in any travel guide; a completely different Seoul for me: authentic, alternative, lively and without any skyscrapers. James told us the story (Jacob too) and Jacob took wonderful photos and snapshots of us. Time flew by and the atmosphere was cheerful. We laughed a lot, learnt a lot and felt very comfortable in the company of the two complementary guys. Thank you James and Jacob for this experience in this big vibrant city!
