Andrew was incredibly resourceful and knows all the right people. He brought us to all the must see places and some we would have never seen. Everything we wanted and more. Definitely recommend Andrew!!

Andrew was amazing! I would recommend him to anyone coming to Seoul. He was knowledge and resourceful and we got to see so much of Seoul. He has incredible time management. He was the best tour guide I have ever toured with.

Our tour person, Andrew is the best we have had so far after 5 different cities. He’s professional, knowledgeable and very nice to our children. Strongly recommend him.

This was a fantastic tour! Our tour guide Paul got in touch a few days prior to the tour to confirm where and when to meet and to ensure that we were prepared for the chilly weather. We had no expectations of the day - so asked that he advise us of what we should see. He was fabulous - discussed the history and culture of Korea - and was open to all of our questions (history, culture, politics, religion, day to day life). We saw some amazing sights - and fabulous views. We learnt how to use the local subway (very efficient!). Paul suggested lunch in a local market - with some delicious food. In terms of practicalities - he had good suggestions of clean and comfortable ladies toilets to use during the day (much appreciated). Overall - a fantastic day with a great guide!

Very insightful tour. Felt in great hands with a local guide and she provided awesome recommendations.

Steven Oct 2023

Oki was a very personable and professional guide. She was able to tell me a lot about the history of Seoul in South Korea, and we visited several night spots in Seoul: Namsan Tower, Gwahamun square, and Gwangjang market.
