A day in Seoul

5.00We really enjoyed our all-day private guided tour with Kay. He was flexible and guided us with renting Hanboks, finding a vegetarian meal, and even adding HiKr when we had some additional time. We also really enjoyed learning to write our name in Korean as well. All in all, it was a great day and we really enjoyed learning about Seoul and its history! I would highly recommend this tour! And thank you for the Korean snacks!
Best guide ever, very attentive.

5.00Kay was great, from building our itinerary that required both teenager and adult approval, from communicating with us with where we are going and the history and information on where we are at, he took great photos of me and my daughter as well. His van is so clean too! Highly recommend!

5.00Kay gave us a wonderful tour of Seoul! Communication and input on what to see before we even met was great. Prompt pick up at our hotel in a large comfortable van. Very knowledgeable local commentary as we went to the different sites around the city. Authentic Korean lunch at the local market was very tasty and the traditional Korean tea on our break was delicious. Would highly recommend!

5.00We had an absolutely EXCEPTIONAL day with our guide Kay. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of South Korea, and made sure we saw ALL the top sites of Seoul in just one day. If you are looking into booking this tour, my family and I HIGHLY recommend it. You will get to see all the best tourist sites in Seoul, as well as many local parts. The restaurant that our guide took us to was incredible as well. We had a delicious beef stew, and the ambience of the restaurant is wonderful! My group and I cannot say enough kind things about our guide Kay. He was kind, well spoken, intelligent, and very personable! His friendly and welcoming demeanor makes you feel as though you are being guided by a friend or family member. Thank you so much for taking us around Seoul today! It was an experience that we will carry with us for a lifetime!
