Things to do in Seoul

Seoul, the capital of South Korea, pulses with energy—day and night. Nestled along the Han River and surrounded by mountains, Seoul has served as the cultural and political heart of Korea for over 600 years. Today, its skyline is dotted with gleaming skyscrapers, royal palaces, and hillside temples—all coexisting in a uniquely Korean rhythm. From the royal grandeur of Gyeongbokgung to the trendsetting streets of Hongdae, Seoul attractions continue to draw global attention and reward visitors with fresh discoveries each season. Winters can be icy, while cherry blossoms and crisp air make spring and autumn perfect for exploring—Seoul weather plays a big part in setting the scene.

Reviews: DMZ Tour with Optional Gondola and Suspension Bridge

I really enjoyed the tour; it was very interesting. The guide was very friendly and patient. He was attentive to everyone. It was a small group. He took photos of us and told stories about the DMZ. There wasn't time for lunch, so it's necessary to bring snacks. I highly recommend this service.
Reviews: Nami Island + Petite France & Italian Village One Day Tour (From Seoul, English Guide)
Guest User2026-01-31
The tour guide provided ample time for sightseeing and was very helpful in taking photos. Nami Island is truly beautiful. Foreign tourists looking for a day trip should definitely try this tour – it was a great experience! The scenery on Nami Island is breathtaking; I can't imagine how beautiful it will be in autumn! ✨ There's a bakery on the island with incredibly delicious corn bread! The island also has many small animals, such as rabbits, peacocks, mallards, and more…
Reviews: Vivaldi Park Ski & Snowyland One Day Self Guided Tour (Shuttle from Seoul)
Guest User2026-02-10
It was an amazing experience! Our guide — a fresh-faced young man in an orange shirt (I can’t remember his name) — spoke excellent English. When he realized we weren’t very fluent, he slowed down to make sure we understood. As complete beginners, we kept falling and ended up sore all over. And of course — if you fall, you have to get up by yourself… because people there are impressively cold-hearted. No one is going to help you up — not even a hand, not even eye contact. Truly builds character. 🥲
Reviews: Elysian Gangchon Winter Ski Resort + Eobi Ice Valley Day Tour from Seoul (With Basic Lesson and Clothes Rental)
Guest User2026-01-03
We had such a fun and great day! Our guide, Philip, was so, so, so nice, he’s actually the reason why I’m writing this review. He speaks really good English and regularly checked in with us throughout the day to ensure that we’re okay and enjoying the activity. He’s was also our ski instructor which was a good surprise. Anyway, this is highly recommended! My family had a great time.
