This was a very interesting tour! I was initially worried about whether my legs could handle 1.5 hours of pedaling, but it turned out to be a very friendly tour, with only 1.5 minutes of actual effort throughout the entire trip 😅. Most of the time, we were comfortably riding in an electric vehicle, exploring the city of Seoul, and listening to the guide's detailed explanations of the city's historical trajectory and recommendations for famous eateries! We also walked through alleys, listening to little stories and visiting popular, often-queued-for shops! The most amusing part was undoubtedly the humorous driver who enthusiastically greeted passersby. We were so caught up in the atmosphere that we started greeting people too, only to learn that this city's tram system is quite advanced, something many Seoul residents don't even know about – it was truly an honor to experience! Thanks for the complimentary drinks and desserts (even though I wasn't tired at all 🤣). I highly recommend this tour; it was truly unique!

What an unforgettable evening! The Seoul Night Tour was nothing short of magical. Our guide, Leo, made the experience truly special — he was warm, personable, and full of fascinating insights about each stop. His storytelling brought history and culture to life, making every site feel vibrant and meaningful. We explored the serene beauty of Changgyeong Palace under the night sky, soaked in the bustling energy of Gwangjang Market, admired the panoramic views from Naksan Park, and strolled along the calming waters of Cheongyecheon Stream. Each location offered ample time for photos, and even the light rain added a touch of charm rather than slowing us down. This tour is perfect for both groups and solo travelers — a seamless blend of history, culture, and atmosphere. The pacing was just right, giving us time to savor each moment without ever feeling rushed. Honestly, I’d do it again in a heartbeat!

I had a wonderful experience with Stella as my tour guide! She is incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Korea's royal palaces and brought each place to life with her fascinating stories and insights. As a first-time visitor to Korea, this tour made me appreciate the country's rich culture and history even more, and it definitely inspired me to come back again soon. Next time, I'll even make sure to try wearing a hanbok! I highly recommend booking a tour with Stella. She speaks English, Japanese, Spanish, and Korean fluently, making the experience enjoyable and accessible for visitors from all over the world. Thank you, Stella, for making my first trip to Korea so memorable!

An absolute highlight of our trip to Seoul! The itinerary was incredible—from exploring Deoksugung Palace at night to eating hot ramen by the Han River, and finishing with the stunning Moonlight Rainbow Fountain show at Banpo Bridge. Huge thanks to our guide, Henry, who was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience seamless. Our driver, Yoo, ensured our journey was safe and comfortable throughout the night. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Korea!

I just went solo on the tour and met John our Guide. it felt like going on a trip with someone you know already since months or years. John did so great and I enjoyed the trip with him together really well. he preferred what to eat at the market, we just shared some food and I would recommend it to everyone.

What to know about Cheonggyecheon

Located in Seoul, South Korea, the pedestrianized Cheonggyecheon Stream runs about 16 feet (5 meters) below street level. This 3.6-mile (5.8-kilometer) scenic pathway winding through Seoul is a must-visit for strolls and people-watching. With 22 charming bridges and various art installations and illuminated fountains, this stream is a top spot for a relaxed walk in South Korea's busy capital. Access to the real Cheonggyecheon Stream is easy from the square, with steps on the left and the Cheonggye Trail on the right. For a unique experience, check out the 18-meter tunnel on the Cheonggye Trail, leading you to the stream. Once a neglected waterway, Cheonggyecheon underwent a remarkable transformation through the Cheonggyecheon restoration project that restored its natural environment and historical significance. Today it is a testament to the commitment of Seoul Metropolitan Government to preserving its heritage and creating a vibrant public space, from dismantling an elevated highway, for residents and tourists alike.
