This is a great experience if you’re trying to figure out the nightlife in South Korea. I was stuck between Hongdae and Itaewon but after watching there video I went with Itaewon. Hongdae is for the college age people and since I’m a little older Itaewon was the move for me. Our host Minoo was great and he tried to make it a fun experience for everyone. Overall it was a good experience!

Our guide was so helpful and prepared. Very knowledgeable. Such a beautiful experience and very amicable atmosphere. The meeting point and agenda for the tour was very easy to understand and we had no problems.
