Seoul Hipjiro Night Photography Tour na may Historical Insights

A perfect blend of expertise and fun! Both James and Jacob were very polite, smiley, friendly and professional from the beginning to the end. James is a fantastic story teller who is very knowledgeable about korean history and culture. Jacob, a very talented photographer clearly knows the best spots for photography and takes the most amazing photos. I loved the neon-lit signs and retro alleyways that we went to, it made a perfect backdrop for photography. Highly recommended! Not only they showed me the secret hidden gems of Seoul which I would never have found, but also captured beautiful memorable photos that would last for a lifetime. Walking with James and Jacob made me felt like I was walking around the city with friends as they were super easy going and relaxed. I have already recommended them to my friends/ family and I would definitely come back for more tours with James and Jacob in the near future. Thanks again guys for making my trip a memorable one!

Sumali ako sa isang tour sa Seoul kamakailan, at napakaganda ng karanasan! Ang aming tour guide, si James, at ang photographer, si Jacob, ay parehong sobrang bait at palakaibigan. Napakarami nilang kinuhanan kaming litrato, at ang mga litrato ay napakaganda! Talagang nasiyahan ako sa buong oras.. Hindi lang ito tungkol sa pag-aaral ng kasaysayan ng Seoul, kundi pati na rin tungkol sa paggawa ng magagandang alaala at pagkakaroon ng ilang talagang magagandang litrato. Salamat, James at Jacob, sa paggawa ng araw na napakaespesyal! 💕 guide:

I had SO MUCH fun on this walking tour. I really can't say enough good things about it! My favorite part was how at ease Jacob and James made us feel - as if we were simply hanging out with friends. The dynamic they offer with the dual language tour is also quite unique and appreciated as an English speaker trying to learn Korean. Jacob spoke Korean and James interpreted to English while also quizzing myself and another tour companion on what Jacob said. They took us to historically significant sites that other tours don't offer - hidden gems and lesser known facts that foreigners wouldn't necessarily know. When I told them I was a K-drama fan, they pointed out that one of my favorite dramas was filmed at the historical location we were at, and then indulged me with photos in front of it :)! They went with the flow and easily adjusted their route and time to accommodate our interests. Added a blurry photo I took that James jumped into as an example of how relaxed and fun the tour was.

James and Jacob were not only knowledgeable about the area but also very funny! Our tour was comfortable and enjoyable. We had a great time and would highly recommend to add this experience to your trip! A visit around the hidden gems adds the perfect touch to the usual tourist heavy places ☺️local eats and local attractions and the photos are definitely beautiful as well!

Had a great experience! James was very knowledgeable, and the photographer was super friendly. It was nice exploring a lesser-known part of Seoul, and the photos turned out great!

I joined this tour a week ago and had such a great time! Huge thanks to James and Jacob for memorable evening filled with fascinating stories about a part of Seoul I probably wouldn’t have explored on my own. It was refreshing to do something a bit less obvious, and I ended up with some beautiful photos too! This tour was perfect for a solo traveller like me—you get to meet lovely people, visit hidden corners of the city, and have someone take great photos for you along the way. Everything was well-organised and the communication was smooth from start to finish. A personal highlight was getting to meet James in person—I know him from his Korean language videos, so it felt like meeting a star! I was a bit starstruck, but he was incredibly friendly, warm, and full of smiles. I booked this experience very last minute and wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but I’m so glad I went. I’d definitely recommend it for solo travellers and anyone curious about the lesser-known side of Seoul!

Absolutely loved the nostalgia tour with J&J! Enjoyed being part of the hidden gems of the city and going back in time while listening to the lovely stories from the past and present. I think this tour opens up a door to real, local life besides the usual touristy spots that you'd be surrounded by. Thank you for your friendly attitude and the great photos to remind me of exciting Seoul :) Sibel
