South Korea Experiences,
shaped around you

Easy and simple too book, I gave them an idea of the types of things I wanted to see and a short while later they sent me back a suggested itinerary. The Guide was prompt to meet me, friendly knowledgeable, and the tour was terrific.

Wonderful walking tour with GJ, a well educated English speaking tour guide with a good sense of humor and warmth.

Choi knows Busan so well and she helped us curate the a most wonderful private tour. Our conversations and her insights truly made this an outstanding experience. I highly recommend Choi.

Jay was terrific! He is very knowledgeable , easy to understand, and a very likeable man. He took us to all the areas we requested and explained the history and cultural importance and he gave tips on many places to see, events to visit and restaurants to try out. If only we had more time to do everything here in Seoul! Thanks for a wonderful tour Jay!

The private walking tour that I planned took me through some of Busan’s best-known areas — Gukje Market, BIFF Square, Bosu Book Street, and Jagalchi Fish Market — but what made it one of the best tours of my entire South Korea trip was my guide, Choi. I could have walked through these places by myself and seen a market, a book street, and rows of seafood stalls. Choi helped me understand WHY they were there. As we walked, she connected what I was seeing to Busan’s history during the Korean War, when the city became a refuge for people fleeing other parts of the country. She explained how Gukje Market developed amid that upheaval, including black-market trading with U.S. military surplus, and how displaced families adapted when housing and space were scarce. When I mentioned that my grandfather had served in the Korean War, Choi didn’t simply acknowledge it and continue with her script. She stopped and took genuine time with that connection. It changed how the history — and honestly the entire morning — landed for me. What really distinguished Choi, though, was that she paid attention to ME rather than simply delivering a tour. At one point she noticed a street vendor selling suitcases. I’d been trying to solve a luggage problem for two days, so she stopped and helped me inspect the wheels and zippers. Completely unprompted and honestly more than appreciated. Then, as we were closing out our tour, I mentioned that I wanted cooked seafood at Jagalchi Fish Market. She could easily have pointed me toward the market and ended the tour. Instead, she started making calls, found a restaurant that could seat me immediately, and recommended the whole grilled sea bream. It was perfect! One practical note: traffic and road closures prevented my driver from reaching the exact meeting point that morning, which resulted in an unexpected uphill walk before the tour even started. Busan is HILLY, so I’d give yourself some extra time getting to the meeting point. This is exactly what I want from a private tour: not someone simply walking me from attraction to attraction, but someone who gives me context, pays attention, adapts, and helps me understand the place I’m visiting. Choi did all of that exceptionally well. If you’re able to request your guide, request her.

An amazing, tailor-made experience in Seoul! We had an incredible 4-hour tour around Seoul with Andrew, and it was absolutely worth a 5-star rating. It was a very intense but rewarding four hours where he showed us spectacular places that are completely off the beaten tourist path. For most of the tour, we weren't surrounded by crowds, waiting in long lines, or feeling packed in with other tourists. On top of that, Andrew designed the itinerary completely around our specific interests, and he is incredibly knowledgeable about Korea. Highly recommended!

We had a great experience exploring Seoul by foot with our guide GJ. She did an excellent job customizing the tour to our family needs (our kids are 9 and 7), and we saw quite a bit in just a few hours. Recommend as a great way to explore Seoul with family.

Before the tour, Andrew asked us about our preferences and adapted the tour accordingly. We were able to learn a lot of new things.
