Jeeseon was a great guide and our family of four really enjoyed the tour she planned out for us. We walked through the city and got to have a great variety of experiences - street markets, old village, learned a little bit about K-pop, and palaces - and all this within the four hours we had booked with her. She was friendly and personable and kept the tour interesting for our 17 and 13 year old sons. Highly recommend!

We covered A LOT of ground in a short amount of time...walked 8 miles in 4 hours. In retrospect, we would have preferred to see fewer locations and spend more time at each one. That was our fault because we requested the sites we saw.
