We had a fabulous morning with GJ (Jee Eun). She tailored the tour to fit our family's interests and desires. We got to enjoy so many sites and experiences that we would not have managed ourselves. We traveled with our 3 kids (18-20) and everyone enjoyed the tour. GJ is incredibly personable and cheerful and made the tour extra special. We've traveled to many countries and have had many tours, but GJ is our best tour guide to date. Communication before the tour was excellent! If you are considering booking this tour, we highly recommend it! Thanks so much GJ!

Wonderful experience and very customizable. Jay was an incredible guide and host. As a Seoul native, he knows the city so well and was full of knowledge about Korean history. He truly made us feel welcome and was very considerate of the pacing and what we wanted to see. Thank you so much Jay!

Nami was great. She showed us what we had discussed and wanted to see and helped us with negotiating the city with taxis and with shopping. She went the "extra mile" staying with us while we rode the sky capsule. Prior to actually doing the tour we communicated our thoughts of what to see and made good suggestions on what we could do in the time alloted.

Your FAQs

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

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.

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.

What if I want to extend or shorten the day on the go?

If you’d like to extend your time with your host, simply ask if they’re available and continue the tour. Hosts can’t accept payment directly, so once you’re done, contact our customer service team at info@cityunscripted.com to arrange payment. And if you need to finish early, that’s no problem at all!

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 cancel if my plans change?

Yes. You can cancel for free up to 24 hours before your experience date—no questions asked.
