We chose this tour for our second day in Seoul to get an introduction to the city. GJ was our tour guide and we were so lucky to get her. We saw so many sites and wandered through special backroads. She knew where to take pictures that were meaningful and we now have some fantastic iconic photos of us in the city. She gave us suggestions for the rest of the trip. It was a wonderful introduction to Seoul.

We had JS as a guide. She made the effort to reach out beforehand to understand our tour preferences better (separate from the questionnaire), which was really appreciated. She also had very good English despite never having lived outside of Korea. The tour involved a lot of walking and took us from the main palace in Seoul to Hanok Village to the DDP - a good mix of mainstream attractions and slightly less touristy attractions. Would recommend being as honest as possible in answering the pre-tour questionnaire as well as any questions from your guide as to your tour preferences to get the best experience!

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary..

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

What if I want to extend or shorten the day on the go?

If you’d like to extend your time with your host, simply ask if they’re available and continue the tour. Hosts can’t accept payment directly, so once you’re done, contact our customer service team at info@cityunscripted.com to arrange payment. And if you need to finish early, that’s no problem at all!

Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?

Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Yes. You can cancel for free up to 24 hours before your experience date—no questions asked.
