What you'll do

You'll follow your host as they guide you through Seoul's labyrinth of streets and alleyways, uncovering its best, most entertaining kid-friendly spots. You could visit the COEX Aquarium in Gangnam, where more than 40 000 creatures make up the vibrant exhibitions, or enter a whole new world altogether with the immersive virtual reality experiences on offer at the L7 Lotte Hotel in Hongdae, where you can also grab a bite to eat at a themed cafe.

Your host could show you the National Museum of Korea in the city's heart, packed full of national treasures and invaluable history. When it's finally time to chill out, you could sit back and enjoy a street food picnic along the banks of the Han River, the best place to escape the madness!

Where you’ll go

Enter the hyper-futuristic capital of South Korea, where technology has transformed this ancient city into a quirky world of interactive fun. Your host will lead the way as you explore spacious, green parks along the mighty Han River, the lifeblood of this blossoming metropolis.

You could also visit its awe-inspiring skyscrapers in trendy, fashion-centric Gangnam or indulge in a bit of history among the ancient structures of Jongno, home to the city’s most precious relics. Hungry? Dine with the dogs at a quirky pet cafe in Hongdae, Seoul’s culture hub, or build your own sweet treat at a DIY cake shop in Itaewon, a melting pot of eastern and western cuisine. Whatever your tastes, your host has got you covered!

    We had a wonderful time and tour with Thomas for our day in Seoul. It was a wet day and Thomas made it much more enjoyable with close drop offs in a private car to main sites and also provided umbrellas. As an added bonus he gave us a bunch of professional pictures to remember our tour. Highly recommend!

    Our 1/2 day with Jiwan has been the highlight of our trip to Seoul .. we opted for a more Unstructured tour (myself and my 11 year old son) so we could go where the mood took us .. Jiwan was so knowledgeable, so friendly and my son was so sad when the tour finished :). We had street food, market shopping (Jiwan had even researched what my son might like to buy), help to navigate the metro, we really had a great time and would highly recommend Jiwan to anyone wanting a friendly knowledgeable tour guide (and his english was great as well!).
