    The Seoul tour bus was good apart from the driver who drove car too fast. It's not normal for drivers to accelerate and brake hard on a tour bus in a city.

    Very convenient city tour. I recommend to get this tour to have a general idea of where you should visit in Seoul. This hop on hop off bus is better than taking a taxi. They give you a map and time schedule that bus will pick up so you can plan for your visit. This should take an all day if you decide to visit many stops.
