What to expect

It is a trip to discover new Seoul by walking to Seoul’s nostalgic cityscape and Seoul’s current attractions. It’s a four-hour walk tour from Bukjeong Village to Dongdaemun, where the Korean city scene of the 1970s still remains. It is a perfect trip for those who want to experience** the old and future** of Seoul. It is a tour along the Hanyang Fortress, which protected Hanyang, the capital of the Joseon Dynasty, and you can also see how the technology to build fortresses developed in each period.

Review for: Half Day Tour

This tour was both informative and enjoyable. A unique way of experiencing Seouls history. Song was our tour guide, and she was brilliant. The walk covered around 5 kms of the Seoul fortress. It was an easy mostly flat terrain ( very little but manageable steep part). Song allowed us to walk our pace and was very thoughtful to our needs. Extra credit for highlighting some K-drama locations featured along the walk. I highly recommend this tour!

Review for: Half Day Tour

It was raining, but the temperature was just right for Hokkaido. The guide's explanation gave me a good understanding of the age and characteristics of the castle's stone walls, and I thought the division of labor for construction was similar to that of Japanese castles. I would like to take a walking tour of other places.

Review for: Half Day Tour

I think they should not offer this tour at all. Basically the tour guide just walk with you that’s it. You can do this on your own. Luckily our tour guide Jake was nice. Apart from him that’s nothing much nice to say about the tour.
