Review of Seoul’s Fortress Night Hike, with market snacks, sunset views, optional noodles and dumplings, practical tips, price, and fitness advice.

Walk 10km through London’s top sights, enjoy Borough Market, and finish at a pub on this lively, guide-led city hike.

It was the perfect way to see nearly all the major landmarks in one go while getting a real feel for the city. The route is really well thought out and covers an impressive number of iconic sights, from the Graffiti tunnel, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben to the Tower of London and much more.
