Highlights

Gyeongbokgung Palace - Gyeongbokgung Palace was built as the official palace of the Joseon dynasty by Yi Seong-gye, who becomes King Taejo and the founder of the new regime. Gyeongbokgung Palace is commonly referred to as the Northern Palace because its location in the north of Changdeokgung Palace in the east and Gyeonghuigung Palace in the west. Gyeongbokgung Palace is arguably the most beautiful and is the largest of all five palaces. Many Joseon kings were crowned here, including the 2nd King Jeongjong, 4th King Sejong, 6th King Danjong, 7th King Sejo, 9th King Seongjong, 11th King Jungjong, and the 13th King Myeongjong. The premises were once destroyed by fire during the Imjin War (1592-1598). However, all of the palace buildings were later restored under the leadership of Heungseondaewongun during the reign of King Gojong. The assassination of Empress Myeongseong, however, resulted in Gyeongbokgung Palace losing its function as a royal palace, eventually witnessing the downfall of the Joseon dynasty.

Best Tour Ever - Mr. Lee was wonderful! One of the best decisions I made was booking this tour, me and my sister had so much fun. I would absolutely recommend doing this tour especially if it’s your first time in Seoul. I learned so much! And make sure to wear comfy shoes and bring an umbrella just in case!

Best tour of the city! - Our tour guide was Don Lee, the best tour guide we could wish for. Don was on time and very professional. Don is very knowledgeable and easy spoken. He explained everything from everywhere we went in detail. We wen to the Royal palace and witnessed the changing of the guards ceremony. We went up a gondola to a gorgeous observation point and the N Tower. We had a traditional Korean lunch and shopped in a traditional market. Finally he took a detour from the original itinerary to make sure we visited Gangnam and did the Gangnam Style dance by the statue of Psy. We loved spending the day with Don.
