Cheonggyecheon is a beautifully restored 11-kilometer urban stream that runs through the heart of Seoul, offering a serene oasis amidst the bustling city. Once buried under concrete, it was revitalized in 2005 into a vibrant public space with walkways, bridges, and greenery, perfect for leisurely strolls or cultural events. This iconic waterway blends history, nature, and modern urban life.

5.00The areas we went through were very crowded but the tour handled it well. We had enough time to see each place and actually stayed ahead of the mass most of the time. The explanations given were very good. I would suggest not going on saturday, as protests sometimes complicate the routes.

5.00Judy was such a wonderful tour guide for us. We only have 2 days in Seoul, so we really wanted to make sure we utilised our time here in the best way. This tour with Judy did not disappoint. I feel like we got to see some really important locations in Seoul that I would have missed if we were solo. My favourite was definitely the cable cars up Namsan Mountain! Thanks, Judy for an amazingly informative & fun tour.

5.00My husband and I enjoyed our city tour very much because our tour guide Moon was very informative and helpful in every way. Due to massive protests in the city, our program was rearranged, she did a great job despite all the traffic inconveniences. The traffic stall made it impossible for our group to visit Gwangjang Market, so we all decided to end the tour with Moon assisting everyone on how to reach their own hotel. She even escorted me and my husband to take the metro. All in all, it would be perfect if not for the protests that day.
