The food was excellent, but I enjoyed our conversation even more!

Sujeong reached out in advance to understand the areas of interest and designed a perfect tour. She was also great when it came to actually showing us around.

To say that this tour was great only would be an understatement. The way that I described the experience to Giwon was that it was like finally getting the chance to visit a friend who you’ve been promising to visit. She was extremely accommodating and made the entire experience great for us from start to finish. She took us to all the great spots and added a few hidden gems. We laughed most of the night, and couldn’t help but offer to keep in touch, given how well everything went. If you have your choice of guides, Giwon is simply amazing and my recommended guide.
