Perfect way to experience Seoul in this full day tour! - Such a fun day exploring and experiencing all Seoul has to offer. Started the day with a hike in Bukhansan National Park up to a Buddhist temple and then at a lookout with a great view of Seoul below. Next was a traditional Korean bbq for lunch, and the best I’d ever had! Finally we ended the day at the spa where we spent time in saunas, relaxing and a traditional Korean body scrub. You must experience this once in your life! Jones (our tour guide) was so kind and knowledgeable, sharing lots of information on South Korean history and fun facts along the way. Perfect way to spend our one full day in Seoul!

Great tour! - Great tour! Our tour guide (vincent) really made our tour personalized, was very knowledgable and a nice person to chat with during our experience. The Korean sauna is definitely a “cultural experience.” The sauna rooms were awesome and scrub services was nice but the facilities were not super super clean by American standards. I’d do it again though and I can be very picky lol. Just let yourself enjoy the local experience.

Great day all around! - This was probably my favorite tour of our whole trip. It was such a diverse and active day. We hiked Mt. Bukhansan which was challenging and fun. We had amazing views of the city that made it worth the trek. We then had the Korean Sauna experience which was unlike anything else I had ever done. It was a little unusual at first but was relaxing and rejuvenating. Our BBQ lunch was delicious. At the end, we had some time so Harry dropped up off at a market to explore for an hour and then offered to drop us off anywhere we wanted in the city. Harry was very enjoyable company and was really accommodating. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Seoul.
