Personalised Seoul Tour with GJ ;) - GJ was fantastic on my personalised tour. Nothing was too much trouble. She catered for all my preferred sites in Seoul across four hours. I’m surprised how much she fit in. An incredible experience of a beautiful city. I want to come back and have the pleasure of GJ’s company again :)

Highly recommended tour - My wife and I had a half-day tour with Andrew, who clearly knows the city of Seoul very well (formerly worked for the government). Andrew was kind, professional, and respectful and despite having a rainy day throughout our tour managed to make the tour extremely enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommended tour!

Seoul Tour with Steve - My guide today Steve and I had the best time. We visited places which I wouldn't know about and I learn so much about the history of each place that we passed. Steve was patient with my questions and constant photo-taking, imparted his knowledge in a simple, systematic and witty manner. Lunch was a comforting and delicious meal and the dessert he bought was so delicious! I was so touched that Steve stayed back the tour ending time to wait for me to finish my dessert. It was so easy having a conversation with him. I am really happy that I signed up for this tour and grateful that Steve was my guide.

Must do experience - GJ was fantastic. It was our first full day in Seoul so we wanted a crash course introduction. She created an amazing agenda that allowed us to see and experience many things. Additionally, she was incredibly helpful on tips for public transportation, food, culture and overall lay of the land. Highly recommend.

Very informative! - GJ personalized our experience to cover locations we were not already seeing from another tour we were already participating in the day prior. She was very kind, high energy and great at taking photos. She even brought us frozen waters for 4 of us and gave the kids snacks during the bus rides. Great experience!

Best tour of Seoul - Jeeseon is such a wonderful tour guide! We booked the 4 hour tour, and we saw a mixture of old and new Seoul. Stopping for lunch at a Korean BBQ restaurant was great and the day was the best way to spend my birthday that I could have asked for!
