As a history buff, I can bring Seoul’s fascinating past to life while answering all your questions along the way. Whether it’s exploring iconic landmarks, sampling street food at lively markets, or finding hidden gems, I’ll make sure your visit is as fun as it is unforgettable. Let’s dive into the heart of Seoul together – a city that’s full of charm. With me as your host, you’ll experience the best this dynamic city has to offer!
I could not be happier with my decision to book a private tour for my first day in Seoul. Jeeseon and I emailed and messaged back and forth before my arrival so that we could collaborate on an itinerary, based on my interests and “wish list” of things to see and do. Not only did she create an amazing itinerary to incorporate many items on my list, but then masterfully pivoted on a moment’s notice in order to catch the cherry blossoms on their last big day in bloom before the storms came in. We had an absolute blast! She showed me a fantastic mix of hidden gems and seemed to know just what I would like. She was so fun, organized, knowledgeable, and flexible. She had a lovely, positive energy, was incredibly patient with me, and looked after me closely (as I was a bit of a “lost child” on my first day in the city). I feel so lucky to have been paired with Jeeseon! She made my first day in Seoul so very memorable, and I would book a tour with her again in a heartbeat! My tour experience was a 10/10!!

Had a great time with Jeeseon. She is very knowledgeable and dependable. I had requested that we go to some off-the-beaten path places in Seoul and she set up a great itinerary. I was dealing with a recent back injury and had some mobility issues and she was very flexible. I would highly recommend her services.
