What travelers think of this experience
What you’ll do
In modern-day Seoul, the past collides with the present creating a unique fusion of tradition and technology. You’ll get the chance to explore both sides of the coin with the pop-culture-driven high-life in Gangnam, where South Korea’s rich and famous strut their stuff, and the rich history of Bukchon Hanok Village, where ancient Korean culture has been frozen in time in a living museum.
Your guide could lead you to the areas at the heart of Seoul, like those around Jongno-3-ga Station, where fortune tellers and public parks create a uniquely South Korean atmosphere, or you could visit the outskirts of the city in Seongdong, where the banks of the Han River host the magnificent Seoul Forest.
