Private Seoul tour

5.00This was a great private tour of the Seoul highlights with our guide Wookie. After a hotel pickup in a comfortable van we visited a number of sites with our very knowledgeable guide. Our day included a Korean lunch in a delicious small restaurant. Having a guide drive us between sites made the tour much more enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour. And if Wookie is available as your guide you will be very well informed.
A day to myself

5.00I guess I was expecting more about Seoul but I have a solid experience of many beautiful locations in Asia and I think my expectations were too high. However I have enjoyed the professionalism and experience of my guide/driver and I would highly recommend as went beyond to take care of my interests and suggestions
Awesome tour with the best guide

5.00We had a great tour guide! Ayaan was very considerate and made sure we were comfortable with everything. He showed us the main highlights in Seoul- the Gyeongbok palace, Seoul tower, Jogyesa Temple, Bukchon Hanok village, Gwangjang market and one of the most amazing lunch places in Insadong which was such a highlight for us!
Highly recommendable trip to grasp a good feeling of the main landmarks of Seoul

5.00Our guided trip just flew by it was that good ! - it was an 8 hour booked trip and it went by in a flash - it was a real treat for us, first timers in Seoul! Our guide Joey was extremely informative & knowledgeable, positive, genuine, kind, and funny and made every stop in the city so interesting & full of truly "out of the box" pieces of information, history & tips we would not have known otherwise. She truly made possible to really have the best time at every stop. Her flexibility, and the driver's dexterity allowed us to make the best of the tour, managing to avoid some roadblocks (a big marathon was going on downtown), not an easy feat. All worked like clockwork, while being performed with a totally relaxed attitude. Went to some authentic places which made us experience a truly unique experience of culture, values and learning how to appreciate the lives of Koreans living in Seoul. Totally recommended.
Yujin is the man!

5.00Yujin was a wonderful guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable about Korean history and explained not only the places we visited but the places we passed by and much more. I even got a short lesson on Hangul while in the car. I highly recommend the company and especially Yujin. We will definitely ask for him by name.
Joey, our guide was great!

5.00Had a fantastic day with my tour guide Nammin. I learnt so much about Korean history. He looked after me so well and took me for some very delicious Galbi-tang for lunch. I will be booking another tour when I visit again

5.00This tour was great! We had a personal driver/tour who took my mom, my aunt, and myself around Seoul hot spots. Nammin was super knowledgeable about the Palace, the locations we went to, and had good tips for us in general. If you like to know history, Nammin is your guy. This was honestly the way to go as you cover a lot of ground. Seoul is huge and it can be overwhelming.
Taylor was very flexible...
