We had a fabulous morning with GJ (Jee Eun). She tailored the tour to fit our family's interests and desires. We got to enjoy so many sites and experiences that we would not have managed ourselves. We traveled with our 3 kids (18-20) and everyone enjoyed the tour. GJ is incredibly personable and cheerful and made the tour extra special. We've traveled to many countries and have had many tours, but GJ is our best tour guide to date. Communication before the tour was excellent! If you are considering booking this tour, we highly recommend it! Thanks so much GJ!

Wonderful experience and very customizable. Jay was an incredible guide and host. As a Seoul native, he knows the city so well and was full of knowledge about Korean history. He truly made us feel welcome and was very considerate of the pacing and what we wanted to see. Thank you so much Jay!

GJ was our tour guide and she made our time with her count. She took us to so many places and we were able to see so much of Seoul. We traveled to the deoksugung palace, we played around in the Hikr Ground building and took some really fun pictures and videos, we saw city hall, insadong, bukchong hanok village, king sejong statue, and Namsam Park where we left our love lock momento on the tower wall. In 4 hours we were treated to so much history and Korean culture. I highly recommend this tour and our tour guide if you’re ever traveling to Seoul and want to see the sights in a short amount of time!
