Our tour guide, Sookhee... - Our tour guide, Sookhee was very knowledgeable about the history of Korea. We are very happy that we did the tunnel, it was a great experience. It was steep going down & a bit of a hike back up but we all made it. Love the suspension bridge, beautiful view of the mountains..

Perfect - Allow me to rey-lay some of the details of our trip. Our guide was easy to ray-late to, he was hilarious and spoken perfect English. visibility wasn’t very good because of the weather. Our guide was a joy you could say he had a ray-diant smile, or even that he was a ray of sunshine. In case you couldn’t tell the guy was Ray. 10/10 trip!

Exceptional Tour Guide: great experience - BK was an exceptional tour guide for our family half day tour of temples and visit to the South Korean Palace. Mr Kim was our efficient and professional driver. BK’s spoken English is extraordinarily good. We enjoyed his friendly and engaging conversation. BK’s knowledge of history was fantastic. Highest recommendation when looking for tour guides in Seoul. Please consider for your next tour.

Best introductory tour - Mr Kim and BK were the best guides we’ve had. I have visited previously and this tour was perfect. BK was very knowledgeable and set a busy but perfect pace to see a lot in a short time. Perfect tour for the start of your SK travels.

Suspension Bridge and DMZ tour - Felicity was the best tour guide. She was very thorough and explained the history and signifance of each stop. We did the Suspension bride and the DMZ tour. I would highly recommend her.

overall good experience! - Chloe (SeoulCityTour) did a great job introducing the entire trip, providing a cheerful personality on the entire journey. it was an overall good experience and was well paced. do prepare your own snacks/food on the way but there are rest stops along the way as well.

Great DMZ tour with Chloe - Miss Chloe from Seoul City Tour was very friendly and attentive and made the day interesting, educational and loving. She asked at any time on you have questions, or need help and we felt very comfortable with her.

Little time of breaks,... - Short time of breaks, taking into account the amount of tourism. It is advisable to bring food, since the time for lunch is extraordinarily reduced.

No access to DMZ - disappointing - Unfortunately we did not get access to the DMZ zone due to the volume of tourist buses on the day of our trip (100+). We were not offered a refund or an alternative date and instead the guide did her best to make up the time by doing other attractions which were inferior in my opinion. Overall very disappointing.
