    Cheonggyecheon is a 11 km-long waterway flowing center of downtown Seoul. This waterway was natural stream until Joseon dynasty. After Korean war, many refugees made their houses and lived there, so this area was a typical slum and very dirty with bad smells there. Later 1950, Cheonggyecheon was covered with cement structures and automobile overpass was built over there, and many modern buildings were built at surrounding area, so this place became a successful symbol of Korea industrialization. But, after 40 years passed, the structures and overpass became obsolete and dangerous, and so city government decided to restore the place as Eco-stream. This was changed to Eco-waterway through 2 year's restoration project. Total length of restoration is 5.8km, there are 22 bridges, and 50,000 visitors a day.

Seoul in a Day

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a whirlwind day in Seoul. Our guide Tony Kim picked us up at the Port of Incheon bright & early (7:15am) after a cruise, and showed us around Seoul before dropping us off at the airport for our evening flight home. He was able to squeeze a tremendous amount of content into the day, and his insider knowledge helped us avoid long wait times at the Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Honok Village, the National Folk Museum & Jogyesa Temple. Terrific lunch, and dumplings at the Kwangjang Market. We had a great time with Tony & highly recommend this Tour.

Thorough and informative tour

Published on Sep, 2024

I arrived early and my tour was suppose to start @9am, my tour guide was there for me after my breakfast. I had chance to see the changing of the guards in time and toured the vicinity area . I had a chance to sample typical Korean foods and snacks visited the Korean market, the typical old village . I highly recommend Bergen (Seung Ig) Park as a guide and driver Ruben USA

Amazing Tour of Seoul

Published on Mar, 2024

This tour was amazing! Bergen, our tour guide, picked us up at the scheduled time and arranged our activities based on our liking. He also served as our photographer during the entire tour and his pictures were very good. Lunch and dinner were included and we loved the food we ate. He took us to a Michelin restaurant for lunch and we had Ginseng Chicken Soup. We had dinner at a food market in Seoul which was also very yummy. Bergen was very knowledgeable of the tourist spots of Seoul. I highly recommend you ask for Bergen to be your guide when booking this tour!!!

Highly Recommend

Published on Aug, 2023

The day tour was very well organized and informative! We were able to fit many key historic and cultural places into the day while also being able to taste a variety of food. The traditional tea house was a favourite of mine! Bergen was very friendly and accommodating. By the end of the day it felt like traveling with a family member! Highly recommend.
