Traveler reviews
Full-day city tour
Our guide Kelly was wonderful: friendly, informative, efficient, very professional and also very approachable. However, we found the itinerary in the second half of our full-day tour slightly disappointing; given that we had transport, we would have preferred the chance to see a few sights on the other side of the river, such as the Lotte tower and/or the Starfield Library.
Cool tour
Very cool tour , Gogo the guide was very nice , very clear and took care of the group all the time.
Guide HONG's explanations are rich and interesting, and he takes good care of the group members; he actively introduces the scenic spots and arranges for us to see the sights we should see.

Everything great
Everything very good and complete. Our guide Jose was charming.
Time share? or City Tour? You decide
This tour felt like a timeshare presentation you pay to attend instead of getting a complimentary night. Sightseeing that actually matters (museums and similar sites) got limited time. Other stops were commercial: the ginseng visit was largely a pitch to buy product. The shopping-district portion was a hurried look at one souvenir shop, not enough time to browse and grab more than a couple of coffees. We didn’t stop for lunch until around 2 PM, so if you tend to get hungry, bring snacks. Overall: skip it. Put the money toward T-money / metro tickets. Every place this tour visits is close to a station, and independent travel lets you stay as long as you want instead of being herded toward the next sales stop. As you can tell, I was less than impressed.
