Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We spent an evening with Rossi and it ended up feeling more like hanging out with a friend than a guided tour. We made special requests to explore Korean drinking customs and to try specific local foods that we were interested in. Rossi made a fantastic itinieary and really went above and beyond to make an amazing experience for us! "
"We had a great time with Ho Jin! We had time for several different stops and the tour never felt rushed. The kickstart tour is a fantastic way to get to know the area and ask any questions you might have. Ho Jin is very knowledgeable and easy going. Highly recommend! "
"We had an amazing night out for drinks and snacks with Rossi. He really tailored the tour for us, it was more than what we could have hoped for! We even got to taste dishes we had been looking for but hadnt found on our own. But best of all was his company, he is really nice and the hours flew by! 100% would do it again, we will book Rossi again next time were in Seoul :)"
"We had Ho Jin as our guide on a city tour for two hours. He told us a lot of interesting historical facts about Seoul, and he was really nice and laid back (in a positive way!). We enjoyed his company and would absolutely book him again!"
"We had such a wonderful experience with Ho Jin. His tour was packed with interesting information, and he did an amazing job keeping our whole family engaged. He matched the pace of our family perfectly, with frequent stops and such a positive attitude throughout the day. His English was fantastic, which made everything easy and enjoyable. We truly had a great time and would highly recommend booking with Ho Jin!"
"Hi Jin was one of the very best guides we’ve ever hired! Since we had limited time in Seoul, his tour enabled us to see some of the highlights including the Palace, the Hanbok Village and some of the arts and cafe district. Additionally, he offered up magnificent suggestions for “after the tour’s conclusion that took advantage of—including a wonderful dumpling house and a Speakeasy disguised as a paintbrush store, serving up the best Korean fried chicken ever. He is well traveled himself and we found him to be most friendly, professional and engaging. It was the best 3 hours we spent in Seoul! Hi Jin is a gem!"
"We visited the Palace and the local area around with Jason. He made sure we learned a lot about Korean culture and some hidden gems in that area. He showed us very nice places and always gave us interesting insights. 10/10 highly recommend to book your tour with him. "
"Thank for a great job and being so flexibel Jason. "
"We had a fantastic day with Rossi. He was very knowledgeable and gave us great insights on historical information and current culture. He was very attentive to our needs and preferences. His easy going personality made for a very enjoyable day. We look forward to another tour on a future trip! "
"I spent four packed, fun and informative hours with Jason on the Traditional Seoul and Hidden Gems tour and it was more than worth it. Friendly, considerate, smart and knowledgeable, Jason whisked me around the old and new parts of this huge city, including a feast at GwangJang Market, as well as cool spots like a knockout cafe down a tiny alley. It's a well-rounded tour with a guide who makes you feel safe and in the know. He also took lots of time to show me how the buses and subways work! A total pro."
