Itinerary

  • Gyeongbokgung Palace

    Visit Gyeongbok Palace. 'Gyeongbok' means 'felicitous blessing'. It is the first palace that was built on the foundation of the Joseon Dynasty(1392-1910). As much as it is the most important palace in the history of the dynasty, it is also quite enormous. Perhaps due to the luckiness conveyed by the name 'Gyeongbok', this new dynasty was able to last 600 long years through glory and shame.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Bukchon Hanok Village

    Bukchon Hanok Village is home to hundreds of traditional houses, called hanok, that date back to the Joseon Dynasty. The name Bukchon, which literally translates to "northern village," came about as the neighborhood lies north of two significant Seoul landmarks, Cheonggyecheon Stream and Jongno. Today, many of these hanoks operate as cultural centers, guesthouses, restaurants and tea houses, providing visitors with an opportunity to experience, learn and immerse themselves in traditional Korean culture. As Bukchon Hanok Village is an actual neighborhood with people's homes, visitors are advised to be respectful at all times while looking around.

    1 hour

  • N Seoul Tower

    N Seoul Tower is a landmark and communication tower atop Namsan Mountain in Seoul, South Korea. Originally a broadcast tower, it has become a popular tourist attraction with observation decks providing stunning city views. Famous for the "Locks of Love," where couples attach padlocks, the tower also houses restaurants, cafes, and cultural exhibits. Illuminated at night, it symbolizes Seoul's skyline and offers diverse experiences for visitors. Accessible by hiking, cable car, or shuttle bus, N Seoul Tower is an iconic symbol of the city.

    2 hours

  • Hongdae Art Market Free Market

    Hongdae, near Hongik University in Seoul, is a lively neighborhood known for its youthful vibe and artistic spirit. It's famous for nightlife, indie music venues, trendy cafes, and unique shops. On weekends, you can explore street performances and the Hongdae Free Market, showcasing local artists and handmade crafts. It's a vibrant spot for experiencing contemporary Korean culture.

    1 hour

  • Starfield COEX Mall

    Starfield Library is a stunning public library located in the COEX Mall in Gangnam. It features impressive bookshelves, cozy reading areas, and a modern design, making it a popular spot for both locals and tourists. Gangnam Style Statue is a statue dedicated to the global hit song "Gangnam Style" by Psy. Located in the Gangnam district, it celebrates the song's influence and the vibrant culture of the area, attracting visitors who want to take photos with the iconic symbol.

    1 hour

  • Seongsu-dong

Awesome Tour of Seoul, Korea with VIP Service!

Published on Nov, 2024

The tour is nothing but extraordinary! Our tour guide, Mr. Brian together with his colleagues, Kate and Jay did a fantastic job explaining the significance and highlights of all the sites we visited. It was so much fun, with lots of humor and personalized accommodation and service. They are very organized, detailed, and extra careful to make sure no one’s left behind in each of the sites we’ve been to. I would highly recommend them to everyone, especially those in big groups like us to take care of them when visiting South Korea!

Amazing experience with Tagy Travel! Highly recommended

Published on Nov, 2024

I had an incredible time on my recent Seoul tour with Tagy Travel Korea! From the start, the team was super responsive and helped customize the perfect itinerary for me. My guide, Kate & Jonjon, who spoke fluent Bahasa, was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the history and culture of Seoul come alive. The tour included visits to top attractions like Nami Island, Garden of Morning Calm, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, and the vibrant Myeongdong shopping district. Every detail was taken care of, from seamless transportation to recommendations for great local food. I felt completely at ease throughout the trip. I highly recommend Tagy Travel Korea if you want a stress-free, well-organized, and insightful tour of Seoul. It was definitely worth every penny!

OUTSTANDING!!

Published on May, 2022

Our Guide, Mia, picked us up at our Hotel on time. She took us all over Seoul to see the main places. My guide was very friendly and shared great information about Seoul. This full day private Seoul tour was excellent which exceeded my expectations. The lunch at the Chengrangri market restaurant was a highlight! Highly recommend this tour!

Seoul full day tour with very professional guide

Published on May, 2022

I was very satisfied with the tigy tours, which I contacted to better show Korea to customers from abroad.  A very knowledgeable guide, SJ's explanation of Korean culture and history was somewhat critical, but it was very interesting and there was a lot to learn.  The taste of the fried chicken in the Cheongnyangni Traditional Market that the guide took was excellent.  It was a tour that my customers were also very satisfied with.  I plan to continue to use the services of the ride tour in the future.

5days South Korea tour

Published on Nov, 2019

This is my second time using Tagy travel services. Kyungae replied promptly and was very helpful to organize our tour program. It's always been a very pleasant experience as they are so meticulous about the schedule and time travel which is so important in a city like Seoul where traffic can be so crazy. Our tour guide Jay was so friendly and knowledgeable. When you are not sure what to do as plans suddenly change. Their guide will come up with ideas and recommendations that have always been great. I highly recommend sweet travel to anyone who wishes to visit Seoul and do more. Taxis and uber can be so hard to find and you really get lost in translation. Thank you tagy travel for making my visits to Korea so memorable and convenient.
