Paul was very knowledgeable and gave a very good foundation of Korean history and culture to build on for the rest of our stay in South Korea.

We had a wonderful time and tour with Thomas for our day in Seoul. It was a wet day and Thomas made it much more enjoyable with close drop offs in a private car to main sites and also provided umbrellas. As an added bonus he gave us a bunch of professional pictures to remember our tour. Highly recommend!

Our 1/2 day with Jiwan has been the highlight of our trip to Seoul .. we opted for a more Unstructured tour (myself and my 11 year old son) so we could go where the mood took us .. Jiwan was so knowledgeable, so friendly and my son was so sad when the tour finished :). We had street food, market shopping (Jiwan had even researched what my son might like to buy), help to navigate the metro, we really had a great time and would highly recommend Jiwan to anyone wanting a friendly knowledgeable tour guide (and his english was great as well!).

We had an incredible experience on our walking tour of Seoul! Our guide, Hans Kim, was absolutely fantastic — knowledgeable, friendly, and super accommodating. He went above and beyond by helping us arrange Hanboks for our visit to the palace, which made the experience even more special. Hans also took amazing photos for us throughout the tour, capturing memories we’ll treasure forever. Everything was well-paced, informative, and so much fun. Highly recommend this tour and especially Hans if you’re looking for an unforgettable day in Seoul!
