I found my 1/2 day tour of the temple and the Palace and its gardens to be very good. I and my fellow travellers were in the capable hands of Sadie who brought us along with humour and alot of knowledge. Top marks to her...

I had an amazing tour around Seoul with our fantastic guide, Chole. She truly went above and beyond to make the experience memorable. The places we visited came alive with her explanations of the history and culture, which added so much depth to the trip. I especially appreciated the hidden food spots she recommended for lunch—every choice was absolutely delicious! Having Chole as a guide made me feel at ease and allowed me to fully enjoy the day. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Seoul!
