Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"My tour with Chris was excellent, his knowledge of Korean and world history was extremely impressive and made for a great few hours exploring downtown Seoul. I would highly recommend a tour with him for anyone who wants to learn more about the history and culture of this great place. Knew an excellent spot for traditional Korean tea as well. "
"Juli’s food tour was the perfect introduction to Seoul. We arrived hungry and she immediately took care of us. After fortifying us with kimchi dumplings we tried a number of other delicious Korean dishes throughout the market before walking to another market. She also gave us a great orientation to the city and the country. Highly recommend!! "
"Our guide was knowledgable, helpful and friendly. He gave us a wonderful introduction to the City. We could not have been more pleased"
"We had a great time with Jason, we were shown how to use the trains and load cards, then went on a fun trip to explore."
"We had a fantastic experience on our With Locals tour with Juli in Seoul! She took us to a beautiful temple and guided us through the vibrant night markets, where we tasted so many fabulous and delicious local specialties. Everything she recommended was absolutely amazing! What made the tour even more special was how much we learned along the way. Juli shared fascinating insights about the history of Seoul and the specific neighborhoods we were exploring, which gave us a much deeper appreciation for the city. She was engaging, knowledgeable, and wonderful with our kids — they were completely involved and genuinely interested the entire time. As a family, we all had such a great time. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Seoul!"
"Rossi gave a wonderful tour of the fish market, i had a really good time with him and it was all so yummy, would def recommend him to others "
"He showed us some really nice streets we wouldnt have found without him. Very easy to talk to and service oriented. We really liked our tour. "
"I had a very nice kick start tour with Ho Jin, I would recommend to anyone who spends his first day in Seoul. Ho Jin showed me the most important places in the center and told me stories about the sights, the history, the culture and the people of seoul and korea. Perfect start! Thank you! "
"I did a private walking tour in Seoul with Jason, and it was hands-down one of the highlights of my trip. Jason was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring throughout the entire experience. He went far above and beyond a typical tour guid, not only did he tailor the walk to my interests and pace, but he also helped me get properly set up in Seoul with tips, recommendations, and practical help that made the rest of my stay so much smoother. You can tell Jason truly loves what he does and wants his guests to have the best possible experience. He was patient, friendly, and always checking in to make sure I was comfortable and enjoying myself. If you’re looking for a private walking tour in Seoul that feels personal, stress-free, and packed with local insight, I can’t recommend Jason enough. This tour was worth every minute and then some!"
"Chris was a wonderful tour guide. He was fantastic with our two young kids and made the tour possible by engaging them in the stories. Chris is very knowledgeable and led us through the rich history of ancient and modern Korea which helped open our eyes to a more nuanced history of Asia and the modern day Seoul and Korea we were visiting. I couldn’t recommend Chris enough! "
