Best tour ever!! Diane is not only a spectacular and knowledgeable guide, but also a wonderful host for South Korea. Even though it was a group tour, she provided personalized information for each person on the tour to ensure we all had an amazing experience. I cannot recommend it enough!

If you’re visiting Seoul, you need Diana and Tom. Diana is incredible—warm, fun, and naturally skilled with people. She makes everyone feel comfortable and brings the culture, history, and stories of Seoul to life in a way that keeps you engaged the entire time. Every stop felt perfectly chosen and her energy made the experience unforgettable. Tom is an outstanding driver. Navigating Seoul’s busy streets isn’t easy, but he made the ride smooth, safe, and stress-free. His timing and professionalism were flawless. Together, they’re the perfect team. If you want a tour that’s personal, exciting, and full of great memories, this is the one to book. Highly recommend!…55

The weather conditions weren’t great. Rainy and cold: too much time in palace, I guess interesting for people fans of history and details. I was expecting something a bit more vibrant and a tour of various Seoul district it didn’t happen. I actually left the tour during lunch break. Also, I much prefer a private tour, but that’s my mistake
Seoul City!
