Hello, I’m Andrew a Korean man, and I have lived in the city of reluctant farewell called Seoul for over thirty years. I am a retired diplomat and had many chances to show the best of Seoul to international dignitaries. In this lovely city of Seoul, you can find the most exotic foods and local drinks, feel the vibes of Gangnam style, and behave yourself as if you are the main characters of k-drama by intermingling with the citizens of Seoul. Now, do you want to be my next dignitary enjoying the proper protocol? I am well armed with Korean government authorized tour guide license both in English and in Chinese in addition to the proper manners of a professional career diplomat."

Great way for someone new to seoul and the Korean language (such as myself) to see some of the city, thank you!

We really liked the stories he shared about every place we visited. We appreciated him being very aware and accommodating of our limitations (some seniors in our group who could not walk fast and had challenges with stairs). It was clear that he was willing to go above and beyond to make our experience the best possible one.

Andrew was such a wonderful guide that brought the city to life for us! He's super knowledgeable and provided many historic insights during our tour. I would highly recommend this tour to any newcomers to Seoul. It was a great introduction to and gave us a solid foundation to explore the city further on following days.
