Seoul reads differently after dark, and the best of it is off the main roads. Below are the best night tours and walks in the city: palace grounds under lights, market food crawls, moonlit history walks, the Han River bridges at their best. Each one is priced, with how long it runs and how much walking it involves.

“If you have a couple of hours to spare whilst in Seoul, I’d so recommend this tour! Leah was amazing! I truely didn’t know what to expect but it sounded cool and my husband and I are so happy we booked it! In just an hour we learnt so much about South Korea; from students to moon villages and more! We saw, by far, some of the most amazing views of Seoul and this tour has been ranked a favourite. Leah was lovely, I loved how it was so casual and she answered our million questions. She really made us explore Seoul for what it truly is. 💕🌙”

“We had such a wonderful evening on this tour! ✨ It started with a cozy picnic where we enjoyed delicious Korean food, followed by fun traditional games.
