What travelers think of our Seoul experiences
What you’ll do
You’ll join one of our Seoul hosts for a night in Seoul you won’t forget - unless you indulge in a little too much soju, that is.
Whether your vibe sounds more like the eclectic, hipster district of Hongdae, the favorite of the city’s students, or you’re more Gangnam style (sleek, upmarket, and very glam), your host will make sure you’re in a neighborhood to suit. with the location chosen, it's time for your first cha (round)!
Let your host fill you in on the must-knows of Korean drinking etiquette as you sip your first soju - a Korean liquor. For the first cha, a tiny backstreet cafe for a drink and some nibbles will do the trick.
Next up, a local bar - let us know if you’d like to explore the K-Pop scene and see a live band or if you want to check out a ‘self bar’ where you grab your own beer.
Your third cha (because you can’t be tamed) will offer you the opportunity to line your stomach with Korean fried chicken and beer in a hof - we’ll let your host explain this.
And if you’re still up for more, the time has come for karaoke! Go to a noraebang (private singing room) and sing like no one’s listening (luckily, they’re not, although who are we to say; maybe you have the voice of an angel?)
