We had such a great time exploring Seoul with Andrew! He is incredibly knowledgeable about Korean history and culture, and we really enjoyed hearing the stories and interesting facts he shared along the way. It made visiting each place so much more meaningful. We covered quite a bit of Seoul, including City Hall, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Gwanghwamun Square, Bukchon Hanok Village, Samcheong-dong and much more. Andrew also showed us how to use the public transportation system, which was really helpful and gave us the confidence to get around Seoul on our own. One of our favorite parts of the day was when Andrew took us to a local market to experience some authentic Korean food. We sat down together, and he picked out several unique dishes for us to try. Some were things we probably wouldn’t have thought to order ourselves! It was a fun experience and a great way to get a taste of the local food culture. What we appreciated most about Andrew was that he didn’t just take us from one sightseeing spot to another. He helped us better understand the history, culture, and everyday life in Korea. We learned a lot, enjoyed some great food, and had a really fun day. We would definitely recommend Andrew to anyone visiting Seoul, especially if you want to see the highlights while also getting a more local perspective. Thanks, Andrew, for showing us around and making our time in Seoul so memorable!
