Experience the best of
South Korea with Withlocals

"Cristina was very easy to contact, and message with. Took us to many interesting places and was very knowledgeable about Korean history. She found out we were both teachers and explained the education system to us. Great tour guide and great tour. "

"Having previously taken Rossi's Seoul Highlights and hidden Gems tour (which was already brilliant), our family had high expectations for the DMZ and Gamaksan Suspension Bridge day tour—and Rossi delivered once again! The itinerary was perfectly balanced between breathtaking scenery at Gamaksan, rich history at the DMZ, and fantastic local Korean food. Rossi was incredible with our family: warm, full of humor, and endlessly patient with all of our questions. If you're visiting Korea, booking a tour with Rossi is an absolute must!"

"We had such a great experience with Juli. She is very nice and had a lot of stories about Korean food and Korean history. She made us discover really nice local Korean food we would not have been found by ourselves. Every dishes were delicious. Juli is explaining the story behind dishes, which is always so interesting. She is very open-minded and friendly, and of course very smiley 😁 I truly recommend Juli as a guide if you want a very nice food tour in Seoul. But do not forget to avoid eating before the tour cause there’s a lot of food to discover. Thank you so much Juli, wish you the best for the future. "

"I had a last minute opportunity to explore Seoul as part of a solo overnight stay and reached out to Jason. He was happy to take me around with short notice and show me some of the sites with a flexible timeline. Jason was very accommodating and a pleasure to spend an evening with. I would definitely recommend his tour to others! Greg"

"Rossi made our day truly special! He is a warm, knowledgeable guide who gave us so many fantastic extra tips for our stay. His personal recommendation for dinner was an absolute hit—especially for the three meat-lovers in my family! Rossi's hospitality made us feel like exploring with a local friend. We are already excited for our upcoming DMZ tour with him. Highly recommend booking Rossi! 🙌✨"

"First Seoul visit from the US and we wanted to sample some food to learn what’s good. Juli was an awesome guide tonight - she fed us a ton and was very helpful with info about Korea. She also never let our cups go empty! "

"Ho Jin took us around to get the lay of the land and gave us some nice knowledge about the city. Very lovely first afternoon with a great guide!"

"We had an amazing 2-day family tour in Seoul with Rossi as our guide, exploring the city highlights, historic fortress walls, and charming cultural villages. Traveling with two boys can be a handful, but Rossi made the entire two-day experience smooth, engaging, and fun for everyone. He is extremely professional, friendly, and great at keeping the kids interested"

"Fantastic evening with Juli. Some great little local nooks that served delicious authentic Korean food. We were both completely stuffed after the 4th dishes and were only half way there. Juli was very knowledgeable and entertaining. A really lovely introduction to Seoul and its wonderful food"

"Jason was great as a private tour guide helping with creating my curated itinerary for cultural experience exploring Korean spiritual folklore religion/history/practicing art of Korean shamanism. I reached out to ask him for help organizing and setting up the meeting with a reputable shaman and experience the practice as a local would. I have my BA in Cultural Anthropology and found the entire experience very enjoyable from a learning perspective, gaining a deep appreciation of Korean spiritual history. The reading itself was very fascinating and incredibly, I found the shaman’s practice very easy to understand using Jason as my translator. Not only was Jason able to translate the shaman’s words smoothly and easily to English but he also made me feel very much at ease to communicate and relax as if I were speaking to a friend. I couldn’t recommend hiring Jason as a tour guide enough, he was so professional, patient and went the extra mile making sure to answer all my questions and provide extra help. If I visit Seoul in the future and need a tour guide I would reach out to him."
