5.00I did the full day tour with AJ and had a really really great time! We went all over the city, got to see so many great historical sites and learned so much. AJ was funny, personable, got to know us all well and went above and beyond to help us any chance she got. The tour would not have been the same without her and we're so happy we went even in the freezing temperatures!

5.00our tour guide Sadie was really nice and helpful. she gave a lot of tips for vacationing in Seoul and was very nice and talkative. She also kept everyone safe and made her directions and guidelines clear. sometimes the tours my family goes on are not very fun, but this a very fun experience! The crowd at the places were a little packed, but we always stayed with the group thanks to Sadie. she always made sure everyone was comfortable and happy.
Lovely tour guide
