My reviews

    The tour was 4 hours but we took in the Gyeongbokgung Palace, Namsan Tower, Hanok village and the Blue House! Very organized tour. Johnnie was an absolute amazing tour guide!!! He was very knowledgeable and so super helpful. One of our group is disabled and couldn’t walk far without stopping. He made sure she had a wheelchair when we toured! He was very patient and made sure we rested and hydrated. He even helped us get taxis to other destinations! He is an absolute jewel!!! Thank you Johnnie!!

    We had a wonderful time exploring Seoul via train / metro and walking with Johnnie. It is our first time in Soeul, and this tour allowed us to explore and orientate in a new city. Johnnie spoke perfect English and was willing to accommodate our itinerary as much as possible. It was certainly worth just doing the tour to understand how the train / metro system works, it gave us much confidence to continue using the train / metro system throughout South Korea.
