5.00The city tour was incredible, including the two most important palaces (Gyeongbokgung and Changdeokgung), the Jogyesa Buddhist temple, the museum of folk arts, and the Dongdaemun market. What made it more special was Lizzy, our English guide, who provided extensive explanations of the history and context of each place. She was always very kind, answering all questions with precision and kindness. If you take a tour in Seoul, make sure it is with her.
