Overview

You’ll join one of our hosts to flit your way around some of the best the city has to offer, the unmissable if you will. Obviously, we’d be lying and you’d be silly to believe us if we said you could see it all in a day, but you can have a good go! If you’ve got a Seoul bucket list, now would be a good time to whip it out, or let your host share with you the spots which they think are unmissable for a unique spin on things.

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.

Reviews

Great way to see Seoul in short time
Mipike2, 31-12-2019
We had an all day layover in Seoul. With limited time, this was a great way to get around and see what we wanted to see as well as what we didn’t know we wanted to see. Giwon was an excellent guide. She planned a great itinerary, knowledgeable about the sites and culture, and added impromptu stops as we shared interests.
Great way to see the things you want to see
Alex D, 24-11-2019
I took the 8 hour personalized tour. My guide was Rossi. We had communicated via Whatsapp on what I wanted to see. Since the tour fell on the second day, I had already seen some of the things he wanted to show me. He was extremely flexible and we adjusted the schedule on the fly. He was easy to get along with and we had some good conversations while crisscrossing the city walking and using public transportation. A highlight was Ewha Women's University where I never would have gone on my own. Highly recommended.
