Good time - Tour was nice. Got to walk around the palace and learn some history. The walk isn't that bad and I thought it was nice that the tour guide made sure there was a restroom break while we were there. After that, we walked to the market and it was pretty good. Lots of different food to try such as dumplings, pancakes, live octopus and raw beef, and the twisted donut. After that, we walked around and ended up at Jogyesa Temple which was quite nice to see and hit the drum.

Such a fun night with Mia as our tour guide. Food was so delicious. Visited beautiful sites. - Had a great time with Mia as our tour guide. It was a really fun night and the food was delicious. Mia really went out of her way to make sure that we and our tummies were all happy. There were 11 of us, including me and 2 other solo travelers. One tour-goer was quite late and had to meet us at our first site, but Mia handled the situation with grace and professionalism and managed to keep the rest of the group moving along and engaged. Thank you so much, Mia!

Excellent walking/foodie tour - We enjoyed this tour a lot. Janice, our guide, was superb and she knew a lot about the area including the history. She took us to the market where the group had a table reserved and we ate a lot of food. There is a lot of walking involved so wear comfortable shoes!

Not a True Foodie Tour IMO - Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and truly passionate about the history of Korea. We appreciated learning so much about the places we visited. The only reason I’d give this 3 stars is because it’s reallly not a “foodie” tour. We had one stop for dinner with a mix of foods that was available to everyone in the restaurant. This could be our error in expecting more food stops while seeing some sites. This tour has a lot of walking but it was nice & enjoyable through various neighborhoods. I personally think the JOGYESA Temple is better viewed during the day vs night and the palace was still daytime so we didn’t see that as advertised in the main pictures. But overall solid tour for the price.
