5.00Booking was easy, communication with the supplier was faultless and also confirmation from the guide to confirm meetup time and place. This was a hike in Buchanan Park but not a summit. Mr Baek, the guide, gave an overview of the history of Korea and talked about the temple. We hiked on side trails up to the temple and the Samobawi rock. It was all uphill with very nice scenery. Lunch and water was provided. An excellent day!

5.00Jimmy was so helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend. The trail was rockier than I anticipated but we went slow and at our own pace.
Great experience

5.00Kim picked us up with cold water prepared and the ac on full blast. He asked us about our hiking experience and decided what level we should have done. Kim had a great understanding of the english language and many conversations followed. He gave us a lot of information about the hike and nature and said much about the history of korean culture. The lunch was very good and we wouldn’t have enjoyed it so much without Kim. Amazing experience!

5.00This was our favourite tour in Korea across all our travels. Kim was an amazing guide and took us up a mountain 20mins from Seoul to a monk temple. We asked Kim for an easy climb just right for our beginner level and he delivered. The monks invited us for lunch and the temple had an amazing view of Seoul city. Kim has a great understanding of the local flora and fauna and was teaching us all about it. Must do activity for every Seoul holiday no matter your hiking capacity.

5.00Great hike and great company - highly recommend Andy, knowledgeable about the area/Korea, would 10/10 do again! You will feel it the next day so recommend doing at the beginning of your trip, or have a relatively easy next day itinerary - Melody

5.00My guide Kim was terrific! As a solo female traveler, I wanted to have a hiking buddy and we had a great day hiking up the mountain. He was extremely knowledgeable about Korea and I wish I had him as my guide for the rest of my trip!
