A Unique and Personalized Experience - This experience is designed to guide you along less-traveled pathways, ensuring you avoid the typical tourist destinations. Throughout the journey, there are numerous opportunities for memorable photographs, with each location offering its own rich historical significance. James and Jacob are exceptional at tailoring the experience to suit the specific interests of the group, making the excursion feel truly personalized and engaging. This is my second time on a tour with James and Jacob and hope to have many more - a can't miss experience when visiting Seoul!

Chill way to get some memorable pictures of your trip. - I had a really enjoyable night photo tour in Seoul with James and Jason. They picked great locations with interesting night views and made the whole experience feel relaxed rather than rushed or staged. I’m not the most comfortable in front of a camera, but they gave simple, natural directions that helped me relax and actually enjoy the process. They were patient, encouraging, and clearly experienced at helping people look their best in photos. Somehow, despite having to work with me as the subject, they also managed to capture photos I’m genuinely happy with. The lighting, angles, and locations made a huge difference, and I now have great memories of Seoul at night to take home for people who will undoubtedly ask for pictures. If you want good photos and a fun way to explore Seoul after dark, I’d absolutely recommend doing a tour with them.

Highly recommend 😊 - Booked this tour out of curiosity and it was such a fun and interesting night with lot of thing i learned. It was such a pleasure to be with James and Jacob. They are both so nice and chill that it was so easy to communicate and feel at ease (for someone as introverted as me in a language i do not speak really well it was quite surprising). If you're in Seoul and want to spent a fun, interesting and educational hours at night - just book this tour 😊 A big thank you to James and Jacob for having us. Best regards Kitty 😊

Best Night Tour in Seoul - We absolutely loved this tour. It had such a cool vibe with all the neon lights, street art, and little stories around every corner. James and Jacob were amazing. They were professional, knowledgeable, and so friendly that it felt like hanging out with friends who just happen to know all the hidden gems of Seoul. They made sure everyone got great photos and kept the whole experience relaxed and fun. This was easily one of our favorite things we did in Seoul and we would recommend it to anyone visiting the city.

A unique night in the neon streets of Seou - This was my first tour with James and Jacob, and it was absolutely amazing! They show Seoul in such a special way – mixing history, street life, and modern neon vibes. The combination of storytelling, hidden spots, and photo moments made the whole evening unforgettable. You get to see places you would never find on your own, and the night atmosphere is simply magical. A truly great experience – highly recommended!

Magical Night Photoshoot in Seoul - This night tour with James and Jacob was an unforgettable experience. Exploring Seoul after dark while listening to James’s stories about the city made everything come alive — the lights, the atmosphere, and the energy of the streets were incredible. Jacob is a talented photographer who knew exactly how to capture the mood of each location, and the photos turned out beautifully. Both James and Jacob were friendly, professional, and made the evening very enjoyable. I truly felt like I was seeing a different side of Seoul — magical, romantic, and full of life. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the city.

Great tour with friendly guides! - I had such a good time! The guides were super friendly and easygoing. I’m not usually a fan of being in photos, but they were really understanding about it, which made me feel comfortable. I got to see some cool spots around Euljiro and was able to learn the history behind it! Thank you James and Jacob!

Hipjiro fun night out - James and Jacob are such a perfect duo. We had a great evening wandering around the streets of Euljiro and learning about the history of this fascinating neighbourhood. Both of them are passionate about what they do by and they will answer all your questions. They are super friendly and so were the other participants, it was like hanging out with a group of friends. The photoshoot part of the tour was a great bonus, it was fun to learn how to pause and try something new. Now, I have these great professional pictures which are perfect souvenirs for this special moment. I would definitely recommend booking activities with @Koreanbong 🌟

Don't miss this Tour - After joining the Hanbok Photoshoot and History Tour with James I decided to participate in another tour with him. Since Seoul’s night life absolutely amazes me I decided to join the Night Walk Tour and it was such a cool experience. James and Jacob took us to several very interesting secret spots to share some stories about those places with us. My favorites were the Cheonggyecheon Stream and the ally where elderly couples have been spending their time together for many decades, a detail that was really emotional touching for me. We got to learn facts about Korea’s history that was unknown to me before and once again I realized how deep the past of this fascinating country is. Many photos were taken by Jacob inbetween and James made sure to create a cheerful atmosphere by constantly hyping us up which was helpful to just enjoy this moment. At the end of this tour we were told that James met Jacob six months ago when they started their collaboration and I can already imagine how big their project can become as they both did such a great job. If you want to have a relaxing fun night inside Seoul’s late city life then I can recommend you to join the Hipjiro Night Walk.
