This was an amazing activity.
We never practiced any martial arts, but we could fit very well in the scheduled lesson.
Ryun managed to show and made us practice many different kicks. The experience was very fun for us and was also very enjoyable through Ryun and the other taekwondoists. They all were very sweet and made sure we had a great time!
Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to try out something new!!

I’d happily run with Han Stride again! Our 9:30 p.m. running tour was one of the highlights of our trip. The guides were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about running and building a community. We got to experience beautiful places around the palace at night, which we never would have discovered on our own.
What impressed me most was how accommodating they were with our pace. This tour is perfect for beginners who want a fun jog as well as experienced runners looking for a unique way to explore the city. The atmosphere was relaxed, encouraging, and full of positive energy.
If I return to Seoul, I will absolutely join another run with them. I highly recommend Han Stride to anyone who loves running, sightseeing, and meeting people who truly enjoy sharing their city and their passion for the sport. It felt less like a tour and more like running with friends.

This experience following Coach Jay was fantastic. Although I am not good at English and Korean, he was still very patient, explaining each movement one by one in English so that I could clearly understand and complete them. Thank you so much for his professionalism and attentiveness!

My daughter and I had a wonderful experience learning how to make kimchi from scratch. The ingredients were prepared for each station so we did all the chopping and layering the ingredients between the leaves of the napa cabbage. It was a small class so we got to meet other people traveling as well. We got to take home the kimchi and cant wait to make several dishes with it. Kimchi tofu stew, kimchi fried rice and as a side dish. The class was less than an hour so we were able to fit it in to our busy schedule. We also had delicious kimchi pancake after the class was completed. I'm happy we took the class and definitely recommend to a anyone wanting to learn how to make kimchi.

We chose this specific cooking class because they offer other Korean dishes aside from the basic options (bibimbap, japchae, bulgogi) we knew how to cook. Upon booking, they confirmed via whatsapp our schedule and what menu we want to cook. We chose haemul samgyetang (chicken ginseng soup with seafood). Ester was a very good instructor. She introduced the recipe and provided clear instructions. She also made additional cucumber salad for us to eat with the dish we cooked. Highly recommended if you want to try Korean cooking class!

An absolute MUST-DO experience in Seoul!
Our family took a cooking class yesterday with Park, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish!
Park was absolutely amazing. His English is fantastic, making communication completely effortless, and we had so many interesting conversations throughout the session.
The dishes we prepared were not only extraordinarily delicious, but also visually stunning—true works of art!
A huge bonus for families: we brought our 4-year-old daughter along, and Park was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. He included her in the process in such a wonderful, engaging way, making her feel so special and involved.
Our whole family enjoyed every single moment. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Seoul, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. If you’re visiting Seoul, this experience is an absolute must! ❤️
אל תפספסו!! הסדנא הכי טוב. שעשינו בחיים! ועשינו סדנאות בהמון מדינות!❤️🇰🇷

What to know before visiting Seoul
What to expect in Seoul
Seoul’s biggest draws are Cultural experiences, Theme parks and Observation decks, with Events & shows and Massages also ranking high on Klook bookings. The city’s demand rhythm peaks in January and dips sharply in August, so the year feels busiest in winter and quietest in late summer according to Klook booking data. Pick activities that suit the season: winter is lively for cultural festivals and indoor shows, while quieter months suit relaxed sightseeing and spa days. Decide whether you want peak-season atmosphere or quieter value — Klook booking data helps you time it.
Best months to visit Seoul
Klook booking data shows January as the single peak month for demand, while August is the quietest. Prices across the year move modestly: the priciest month on Klook was May and the lowest typical price was in June, so peak demand and peak price don’t perfectly overlap. For lower prices and smaller crowds favour June or September; for peak-season atmosphere aim for January or May when listings and events are busiest.

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.
Where to stay in Seoul
Klook booking data shows a clear split in typical nightly hotel rates across districts. Jongno is the most affordable with a typical nightly rate of SGD 113, while Songpa sits at the priciest end with SGD 217, a gap of roughly 48% between them. More affordable districts tend to suit budget-conscious travellers and those who prioritise cultural sightseeing and local dining; pricier districts suit travellers wanting higher-end hotels, amenities and a more polished urban stay. Use these typical nightly rates from Klook to match accommodation to your travel priorities.
Tips for travellers from Singapore
Most travellers from Singapore book experiences in Seoul about 8 days ahead, with the earliest planners booking around three weeks out, according to Klook booking data. That means you can be flexible and often book a day or two before travel, but planning ahead pays in January and May when demand rises. Last-minute options still exist — many book within 2 days of travel — so use Klook to lock in must-do cultural experiences or shows early and grab spa or theme-park slots closer to your trip. Booking on Klook keeps choices visible and convenient.
