Dennis was very nice and thoughtful, making sure that we're okay and that we're enjoying the tour according to our preferences. He's also really knowledgeable about everything Hong Kong. The food and places we visited and he recommended are excellent. He even took pictures of us which helped us create memories. We enjoyed the tour a lot thanks to Dennis.

This tour was a great way to experience and see Tokyo from the locals perspective. Highly recommend!

We arrived as ignorant tourists with next to no knowledge of Korean culture and history. So, we booked this for our first full day in Seoul and hoped our guide could give us some context and a ‘place to start’. And did he?! Our first surprise was that Young turned up in an A/C car on our scorching August day, “because there are so many places to cover in such a short time”. We were whisked from one side of the city to the other - from mountain viewpoints to museums to neighbourhoods. Our second surprise was that Young turned out to be a history scholar having discovered an interest in Korean history, and is currently turning his passion into a book. How he managed to give us a condensed history of Korea in just a few hours was admirable. We were blown away but the information, history and change that Korea has undergone. This tour formed a firm foundation for the rest of our stay, and didn’t ’step on the toes’ of other tours and sites that we subsequently took (e.g. DMZ and Gyeongbokgung). We were introduced to parts of Seoul we would never have thought of. I’d say 5hrs is a minimum for doing this and I wish we’d booked longer.

Our Guide Iku was very adaptive to our wishes and knowledgeable of the culture, art and history of Kanazawa. We had a great time and also felt like we could connect on a personal level. She gave us great tips and recommendations of spots we could yet visit and answered all of our questions thoroughly and to our complete satisfaction.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour?

No. Our experiences are unscripted and designed around you. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, your host will plan a personalized journey that feels natural, immersive, and unique.

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll complete a short questionnaire about your interests and travel style. We’ll match you with the best host who will tailor the experience to you. You'll have the opportunity to chat with them before the experience and agree on a plan.

Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?

Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

How much walking is involved?

This depends on the experience, but your host can adjust the pace to suit your comfort level.

Can I request specific places to visit?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.
