2 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

This experience is a casual cultural walk and lifestyle exchange in Seoul,
focused on conversation and shared exploration rather than a guided tour.

We will meet near Gyeongbokgung Palace and walk together around the surrounding area,
talking about daily life in Korea, local perspectives, and cultural topics that travelers are curious about.

This is not a guided tour and does not include official historical explanations.
Instead, it offers a relaxed opportunity to connect with a local resident,
ask questions freely, and experience Seoul at a comfortable pace.

This experience is ideal for solo travelers or small groups who prefer
a friendly, safe, and informal cultural exchange rather than a structured tour.

Why Join This Experience?
- Friendly local host (not a tour guide)
- Comfortable for solo travelers
- Focus on conversation and cultural exchange
- Safe and relaxed walking experience
