Flexible Private Guided Tour in Seoul (Optional Incheon Layover)

(Tuesday - secondary palace) Enjoy a full guided tour of the main royal palace of the Joseon Dynasty. Your guide will share fascinating stories about the site’s history and show you the best spots for photos. Because the palace is quite large, it can be difficult for tourists to explore on their own — that’s why your guide is here to help!

A private tour is truly worth it when we explore not only the north of the Han River but also the south — even if it takes a bit more time!

Stroll down a charming traditional street filled with Korean pottery, artwork, antiques, and cozy Korean-style cafés. After lunch, we’ll relax and enjoy traditional Korean tea together — it’s said to help boost your energy for the rest of the walk! And don’t worry, the guide will treat everyone to tea.

(For the layover tour, it can be replaced in case of heavy traffic) This large and beautiful temple offers peace and history right in the heart of Seoul. We’ll walk around together as the guide explains its background and meaning. You’ll see colorful lanterns and lotus flowers along the way. On the drive there, we’ll pass through Gangnam, one of Seoul’s busiest downtown areas. It’s amazing to find such a calm and spiritual temple surrounded by the city’s most luxurious district. If you’re not particularly interested in temples, your guide can suggest an alternative stop.

(For the layover tour, it can be replaced in case of heavy traffic) .This stunning library, famous on social media, holds over 50,000 books — a perfect place for beautiful photos. If you prefer, this stop can be replaced with a visit to a traditional Korean village instead.

We’ll visit a lively traditional market together and discover authentic Korean food and culture. Your guide will explain the history of the market and introduce you to local specialties. We’ll try some delicious snacks together — pancakes, street food, and more! And don’t miss the famous “knife noodle” vendor featured on Netflix, known as the “Netflix Antie.”

Your guide will take you up the mountain to the tower, explain the history of the site, and help you take amazing pictures. The cable car ticket is not included, so please prepare your fare separately. If you’d rather skip this stop, the guide will offer an alternative. Let’s enjoy the beautiful panoramic view of Seoul together!
