What To Expect
Gyeongbokgung Palace
Visit Gyeongbok Palace. 'Gyeongbok' means 'felicitous blessing'. It is the first palace that was built on the foundation of the Joseon Dynasty(1392-1910). As much as it is the most important palace in the history of the dynasty, it is also quite enormous. Perhaps due to the luckiness conveyed by the name 'Gyeongbok', this new dynasty was able to last 600 long years through glory and shame.
Bukchon Hanok Village
Bukchon Hanok Village is home to hundreds of traditional houses, called hanok, that date back to the Joseon Dynasty. The name Bukchon, which literally translates to "northern village," came about as the neighborhood lies north of two significant Seoul landmarks, Cheonggyecheon Stream and Jongno. Today, many of these hanoks operate as cultural centers, guesthouses, restaurants and tea houses, providing visitors with an opportunity to experience, learn and immerse themselves in traditional Korean culture. As Bukchon Hanok Village is an actual neighborhood with people's homes, visitors are advised to be respectful at all times while looking around.

5.00Our trip to Seoul was absolutely perfect, all thanks to Mr. Jay! As Muslim travelers, we were initially worried about finding Halal food, but Mr. Jay made it effortless. He is an absolute expert on Halal dining in Seoul! He took us to the best authentic Halal Korean spots—from delicious Bulgogi to Bibimbap—ensuring everything was certified and according to our requirements. Beyond the food, his knowledge of Seoul’s history and his friendly personality made every day exciting. He even timed our itinerary perfectly so we could stop for prayers. If you are looking for a guide who is respectful, knowledgeable, and knows exactly where the best Halal eats are, Mr. Jay is your man!

5.00Our guide was Ms. Nari, and she truly exceeded our expectations. She was exceptionally kind, informative, and, most importantly, incredibly attentive to our young son, keeping him engaged throughout the experience. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally and smoothly, with timely updates along the way. Our dietary requirements were fully accommodated, and both Nari and Kate went above and beyond, providing us with a list of nearby locations that suited our preferences. We will definitely be engaging their services again!
Great service in organizing, and the best of the tour guide

5.00We had booked 2 days Seoul tour, with different iterinaries. The booking and execution with Tagy travel were flawless. Mr. Bean, our Tour Guide in Seoul was a dynamic, dedicated, knowledgeable, with sense of humor. He picked us up at 8.00 in the morning and brought us back to the hotel around seven in the evening. We truly had an amazing time with him. We never would learned about Seoul so much if it wouldn't be him. After visiting dozens of countries, we can recommending with all our heart. We miss you Mr. Bean!
Awesome Tour of Seoul, Korea with VIP Service!

5.00The tour is nothing but extraordinary! Our tour guide, Mr. Brian together with his colleagues, Kate and Jay did a fantastic job explaining the significance and highlights of all the sites we visited. It was so much fun, with lots of humor and personalized accommodation and service. They are very organized, detailed, and extra careful to make sure no one’s left behind in each of the sites we’ve been to. I would highly recommend them to everyone, especially those in big groups like us to take care of them when visiting South Korea!
