Highlights

WELCOME TO SEOUL.


At the forefront of fashion and technology yet deeply traditional, Seoul brings together palaces, temples, avant-garde design, and mountain trails.
On our tour, we will discover a fascinating mix of old and new, traditional culture with contemporary attractions.


We are going to explore the Gwanghwamun and Jongno-gu areas.
The focus of attention in this area, and probably in the entire city, is the royal palace of Seoul Gyeongbokgung. To continue our walking circuit through some of the best palaces, Confucian shrines, and Buddhist temples in Seoul, it will be like a trip to the time of the Joseon dynasty.
On the way, we will visit traditional tea houses, galleries, bars, and craft shops among its labyrinthine streets full of Hanoks.


We will give you the best tips on where to drink and eat such as the famous Korean beer chicken among others.
