"Thomas is an outstanding, knowledgeable guide who went out of his way to ensure my 16 year old son and I experienced the incredible culture and history of Seoul all in a day! He crafted a careful itinerary after consulting us before we arrived what are goals were so we could make the most of our time. He took us to both popular, well-known locations and a few off the beaten path which we appreciated very much. He was careful, attentive, and ensured we were comfortable throughout. His stories, knowledge, and enjoyment in seeing first-time visitors discover Seoul was evident and he is a wonderful ambassador! We will be taking another tour with him next week to the DMZ and are looking forward to it!"
"Jason was perfect for the kickstarter tour. From the moment we contacted him he was sharing about how to get around in Korea with tons of resources and ideas. When we met him we found a personable and fun person to be around. While he took us to do some amazing things, he was using each excursion as a chance for us to learn some new skill or learn new information designed to help make the rest of our trip go smoothly. It communicated genuine care for us as his customer but also as a new person in a new location. We still get much appreciated ideas based on our time with him and our interests. He obviously loves helping people and that warm made him a great guide for us. "
"We enjoyed the tour we took to the different palaces and the Hanok village. We got to see some cool little things that others often miss. Getting his insight as a Korean who loves his country and yet someone who grew up in two other very different settings in the world was invaluable. He is a warm, knowledgeable and genuine guy. We loved it. "
"Our entire 4 person group agree that Ho Jin was the kindest, most articulate and knowledgeable tour guide we've ever met. From street shopping to the best tourist sites and the DMZ, Ho worked hard to give us lasting memories! We plan to tell friends to book him for their trips to Korea. Outstanding on every level."
"My son and I ended up traveling through Seoul en route to another country. With limited time to spend in Seoul, we thought it would be wise to hire a personal guide. Working with Rossi was an excellent decision. Rossi adapted to the tour to fit our needs and interests. We loved walking the city with him from the market to the Palace and then to the village. With limited time, we were able to learn and experience a small taste of Korean history and culture. Rossi was kind to take some photos for us. Our time was beautiful, and now we know we should come back with Seoul as the destination. Thank you Rossi. "
"We hired Jason for a half day tour. He was knowledgeable and nice the entire time. He showed us things we would not have found our own. I highly recommend it."
"Juli was very knowledgeable of Korean history and was very accommodating for our tour. We were with our two kids, 6 and 10, and she was able to move at a comfortable pace for all of us."
"We had a great time on our secret Seoul walking tour with Jimmy. His very relaxed attitude and flexibility made for a superb tour! He shared great information about everything from Korean royal history to food trends to every kind of fish at the market! We loved it and highly recommend!"
"Jason did a fabulous job customizing the tour to our preferences and showing us neighborhoods we would not have seen on our own. He is very friendly and knowledgeable and we enjoyed every minute of our time with him. Thank you Jason!"
"Thomas was very patient and thoughtful! I brought my four young kids solo to Seoul and he accommodated us perfectly. The kids really enjoyed the food and the sights. He even bought one of my kids a fidget to help her manage the time. Wonderful experience! :)"
