The Ultimate Halal Friendly Tour in Korea - Our trip to Seoul was absolutely perfect, all thanks to Mr. Jay! As Muslim travelers, we were initially worried about finding Halal food, but Mr. Jay made it effortless. He is an absolute expert on Halal dining in Seoul! He took us to the best authentic Halal Korean spots—from delicious Bulgogi to Bibimbap—ensuring everything was certified and according to our requirements. Beyond the food, his knowledge of Seoul’s history and his friendly personality made every day exciting. He even timed our itinerary perfectly so we could stop for prayers. If you are looking for a guide who is respectful, knowledgeable, and knows exactly where the best Halal eats are, Mr. Jay is your man!

3 day Seoul and around Family Day Trips - Our guide was Ms. Nari, and she truly exceeded our expectations. She was exceptionally kind, informative, and, most importantly, incredibly attentive to our young son, keeping him engaged throughout the experience. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally and smoothly, with timely updates along the way. Our dietary requirements were fully accommodated, and both Nari and Kate went above and beyond, providing us with a list of nearby locations that suited our preferences. We will definitely be engaging their services again!

Great service in organizing, and the best of the tour guide - We had booked 2 days Seoul tour, with different iterinaries. The booking and execution with Tagy travel were flawless. Mr. Bean, our Tour Guide in Seoul was a dynamic, dedicated, knowledgeable, with sense of humor. He picked us up at 8.00 in the morning and brought us back to the hotel around seven in the evening. We truly had an amazing time with him. We never would learned about Seoul so much if it wouldn't be him. After visiting dozens of countries, we can recommending with all our heart. We miss you Mr. Bean!

Awesome Tour of Seoul, Korea with VIP Service! - The tour is nothing but extraordinary! Our tour guide, Mr. Brian together with his colleagues, Kate and Jay did a fantastic job explaining the significance and highlights of all the sites we visited. It was so much fun, with lots of humor and personalized accommodation and service. They are very organized, detailed, and extra careful to make sure no one’s left behind in each of the sites we’ve been to. I would highly recommend them to everyone, especially those in big groups like us to take care of them when visiting South Korea!

Amazing experience with Tagy Travel! Highly recommended - I had an incredible time on my recent Seoul tour with Tagy Travel Korea! From the start, the team was super responsive and helped customize the perfect itinerary for me. My guide, Kate & Jonjon, who spoke fluent Bahasa, was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the history and culture of Seoul come alive. The tour included visits to top attractions like Nami Island, Garden of Morning Calm, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, and the vibrant Myeongdong shopping district. Every detail was taken care of, from seamless transportation to recommendations for great local food. I felt completely at ease throughout the trip. I highly recommend Tagy Travel Korea if you want a stress-free, well-organized, and insightful tour of Seoul. It was definitely worth every penny!

OUTSTANDING!! - Our Guide, Mia, picked us up at our Hotel on time. She took us all over Seoul to see the main places. My guide was very friendly and shared great information about Seoul. This full day private Seoul tour was excellent which exceeded my expectations. The lunch at the Chengrangri market restaurant was a highlight! Highly recommend this tour!

Seoul full day tour with very professional guide - I was very satisfied with the tigy tours, which I contacted to better show Korea to customers from abroad.  A very knowledgeable guide, SJ's explanation of Korean culture and history was somewhat critical, but it was very interesting and there was a lot to learn.  The taste of the fried chicken in the Cheongnyangni Traditional Market that the guide took was excellent.  It was a tour that my customers were also very satisfied with.  I plan to continue to use the services of the ride tour in the future.
