Experience Day trips in the best of
Seoul with Withlocals

"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 a wonderful time with Kevin today. His stories about the Korean war, DMZ and hopefully re-unification of the Korean peninsula was insightful for both adults and kids. Greatly recommend!"

"Rossi took four of us from Canada on a day long DMZ tour. He is excellent, and I highly recommend him. I have used many private guides around the world, and he is one of the best. He is knowledgeable and personable with excellent English. It was very easy to communicate with him in advance. He was incredibly helpful in arranging the tour and flexible during the day. He made us all comfortable, and we had a great experience. Highly recommend him if you are looking for an awesome guide in Seoul."

"I would definitely recommend Kevin. He was passionate, knowledgeable and very gentle. His car was comfortable too. We booked a private tour with him to the DMZ just less than 2 days before without any idea that tickets needed to be bought in advance. There was no ticket available, but Kevin kept looking out until he found tickets for us to get in last minute. Thank you so much! Before we drove off to the Imjingak, Kevin took us to the War Memorial for me and the children to learn a bit more about the Korean War. I thought that was a brilliant idea. My children 11 and 14 had a lot of questions and was thrilled to see the DMZ and a glimpse of North Korea afterwards. We thoroughly enjoyed this fun and meaningful trip. "

"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!"

"Chris was a wonderful host and indulged our request for an in depth history lesson and a visit to a tea shop that a local would go to! His warmth, openness and attention to our comfort (it was a very hot day) made our short time in the city feel like we had travelled in time and came away with an understanding of the DNA of the people. Thank you"

"Chris led us on a very interesting walking tour and explained all that we were experiencing. He was able to take us (our request was special) to a great Korean BBQ place and made the experience very personalized."

"We had a really wonderful day with Jin! He knew exactly where to take us, what to tell us about the city and the places we visited, taking us to great spots, so that we didn’t have to walk as much since it was a very warm day. Taught us about the food and all, and we found ourselves visiting Seoul with a friend ! Highly recommended!"

"Our family of 3 had a wonderful experience on a private tour to Aegibong Peace Park along with the Starbucks/observatory and also DMZ. Everything from communication prior to the day of the trip, pick up at the hotel to showing us all the spots, talking to us about the history etc was managed perfectly. It was evident that Kevin has in depth knowledge of the history and also is passionate about his country. The vehicle was very comfortable too which helped since it was a long day. We highly recommend this trip with Kevin!!"

"We, father with daughter of 17, had a very informative day visiting the DMZ with Hyosang Chris. What was most appreciated is that during the traveling to and from DMZ he was able to very clearly place the DMZ within the historical and geo-political context that was often supported by evidence. These much appreciated conversations certainly gave the day a unique added value for both of us. In addition, he was very helpful in solving some practical issues. "
