About

Guided walking tours along the Han River, pairing riverside scenery with the history layered around it. Sixteen courses cover different stretches of the river and nearby heritage sites, each led by a Hangang interpreter. Tours run in two daily slots (10:00–12:00 and 14:00–16:00) and take about two hours. It is one of the simplest ways to turn a riverside walk into something with a storyline — though note the commentary is primarily in Korean.

Description translated from official Korean tourism data. Details can change — verify with the organizer before you go.
