Join me for a half day private tour of the many cultural and historic highlights in my home city of Seoul! Seoul is a city rich in history and traditional culture, yet full of Asian modernity Korean style! And the food is just awesome! There will be plenty of opportunities to sample some along the way!
Your hotel
Departure from your hotel; (Your accommodation must be in Seoul city)
Built in 1395, Gyeongbokgung Palace is commonly referred to as the Northern Palace because its location is furthest north when compared to the neighboring palaces of Changdeokgung (Eastern Palace) and Gyeonghuigung (Western Palace). Gyeongbokgung Palace is arguably the most beautiful, and remains the largest of all five palaces.
Surrounded by Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine, Bukchon Hanok Village is home to hundreds of traditional houses, called hanok, that date back to the Joseon dynasty.
Insa-dong, located in the heart of the city, is an important place where old but precious traditional goods are on display. There is one main road in Insa-dong with alleys on each side. Within these alleys are galleries, traditional restaurants, teahouses, and cafes.
Jogyesa buddhist temple is the main temple as well as the district head temple of the Jogye order in Seoul, it is the center of Korean Buddhism.
Depart back to your hotel or the place where you want to.

We appreciated his timeliness. Jake altered our tour to our liking.
Thank you very much! I hope you enjoy the rest of stay in Korea. Thanks.
He gently lead our group of 6 people, including 4 kids. Walking around in Gyeongbokgung Palace was nothting more than a joy wearing Hanbok and accompanying a professional photographer. Bokchon was also a nice place to stretch our steps even in the heat of boiling summer. You encounraged kids and we are finally happy to be there. Looking at the photos you sent us later, we found it was really the most beautiful photo shooting spot. Thank you for your Japanese command and professional photos! It was a good summer day in Seoul.
Thank you very much! Even hot weather, kids were very patient and so cute. I look forward to seeing you again. Thanks. Warm regards Jake
The plan was well-orgaized in all walking distance from my hotel. I asked him to include "Hanok" photo spots and Korean Chimak experience in tour itinerary. He gave me a full support of how to get to GMP airport even after the tour, carrying my suitcase at subway station. Guide talk at Gyeongbokgung Place was exactly a professional one from his experience and also from his good English ( he's good at Japanese, too). I recommend this guide to all future Seoul visitors. Let's meet up again either in Seoul or Tokyo.
Thank you for your review. I was also happy with you. I am looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you.
