5.00Phillip is an awesome tour guide! So funny and knowledgeable about the sites and areas we visited. We shared alot of laughs with him. The site that touched my heart the most was King Jeongjo's fortress built for the love and deep respect of his father. I would recommend this trip with Phillip to everyone.
Five stars all the way around!

5.00Five star tour! Our guide Philip was amazing! He is very knowledgeable and also funny keeping us all engaged. The transportation was also very comfortable throughout and I like that the tour pick up was at 830am giving us enough time to get to the easily locatable meet up point. The history of the building of the fortress and about King Jeongjo was also very captivating as well as moving. Phillip kept us in suspense which made listening to the history fun. The Starfield mall and library in Suwon was stunning and so lively. We had a great lunch with tons of variety. The final leg of the tour to visit the Buddhist temple was also very beautiful, peaceful and calming. I highly recommend this tour when visiting Seoul and to have Philip as your guide.
Historical trip back to Joseon and flying back to the future

5.00great experience! knowledgeable and entertaining host. trip lasted most of the day, but just a warning, the trip started at 8:30 when it was listed at 8 here and the location on the map was slightly off from myeongdong station exit 2. if you choose that as your pickup, stand near the northface store near that exit.
it’s out there!
