--------------------------------
Unlike typical Seoul tours focused on palaces, food, or modern attractions, this experience explores one of the most hidden and least understood aspects of Korean culture: Korean shamanism.
On the sacred slopes of Inwangsan Mountain, you'll visit active shrines, hear ancient myths and legends, and discover how shamanic traditions continue to coexist with modern life in Seoul. This is not a museum exhibition or a staged cultural performance, but a journey into living spiritual practices that remain part of Korean society today.
Along the way, you'll learn about mountain worship, guardian spirits, folk beliefs, and the role of shamans in Korean culture. For those interested in a deeper experience, there may also be an opportunity to meet a practicing Korean shaman and gain firsthand insight into one of Korea's oldest living traditions.

I have been to Korea multiple times but this tour really changed my perspective on Korea. I got to see a different side of Korea, one bounded by myths and history. This off the beaten track tour hosted by Ethan was marvelous and spectacular both in terms of the tour itself and the scenery. Ethan was knowledgable in this field and answered all our questions earnestly. He was patient and gave us frequent breaks during the tour. Strongly recommended for everyone to come see for yourself a different side to Korea. Thanks once again Ethan for the stories and memories made during this trip!

It was really meaningful tour and reading with the shaman. I went in a skeptic, and it opened up my mind in ways I didn’t expect. I would highly recommend this. Ethan is a very thoughtful guide, and I appreciate all that he has put into making this the best experience possible for every one of us. 감사합니다.

Really great experience, Ethan was a knowledgeable guide. Aa you head into the mountain area there is a lot of stairs but Ethan breaks each part down with a stop to share his knowledgeable. The views are amazing. I did the sharman reading and he was fantastic. Anyone who is interested in Sharman and the history of Korean this is a trip to do. I would do this trip again and recommend to anyone thinking a out it.

Amazing tour hosted by Ethan, learnt a lot about Korean culture that is related to shamanism and Korea's history. Despite coming to Korea many times, this tour took us to a side of Korea that I have never seen before. Thank you so much for the interesting evening!

Very interesting and informative tour! Ethan conducts the tour with passion and planned the walk such that there are sufficient breaks at the right parts of the tour. Definitely will recommend him to my friends if they are interested to find out more about shamanism! I booked the tour with the shaman reading which was an eye-opener and interesting experience! The shaman was also very friendly! :)

Ethan was an excellent and organized tour guide. He took a small group (8 of us) up Inwangsan and made it a unique and enriching experience. He spoke about Korean history, folklore, and was attentive to our group's questions. Expect to go on a short hike, so bring comfortable footwear, water, and a light (phone will work). I did not take part in the Shaman reading, but that seemed like an interesting option as well.

Do you want to do a tour with a difference? Then this excellent tour is for you. Many steps to climb, but you learn about the folklore of Korea. Ethan was very knowledgeable and he was very considerate of everyone that took this tour up the mountain. We had fabulous views over that part of the city, and we visited a beautiful shrine. We also received a reading from a Shaman at the end. Well worth doing.
