5.00This tour was amazing. We booked a small group but it ended up just being the two of us so was more like a private tour. Our tour guide was very informative, friendly and helpful, he answered all our questions. It's a full day but definitely worth it especially if you are not in Seoul for long as you do and see so much in a day. The traditional tea ceremony was the highlight of the day and so was the Palace and changing of the guide.
Great guide, okay tour

4.00Jun was an amazing tour guide, very knowledgeable and helpful, even going so far as to take like 500 photos on our behalf and providing all kinds of recommendations for the reminder of our stay in Seoul. That said, many of the places we visited amounted to little more than venues for photos, which became fatiguing by then end. If you're looking for something less touristy or you aren't interested in taking a bunch of photos, I would look elsewhere. The tea ceremony was very memorable, however, and I would highly recommend adding it to your itinerary if you go with this tour.
Very good first time tour...

5.00WOOKIE was an excellent guide. Informative, punctual, patient, flexible when some elements of the tour were not available and substituted with something better (in our opinion). Very helpful to my husband who had to use a wheelchair some of the time. Would recommend!
Great historical tour + tea ceremony

5.00Young and Christine were so kind and knowledgeable, lots of historical knowledge about the Joseon Dynasty, from the palace, to central Buddhist temples, even a stop through Gwangjang Market -- what truly topped it off for me was the tea ceremony (as a tea lover) where Christine acted as a translator.

5.00This is a wonderful tour. I highly recommend it as a worry free way to see a lot of highlights in Seoul in one day. Our guide Jake was so friendly, kind and made us all feel like family. Definitely pick this one!
Wonderful, Fun, Learning Experience

5.00We had fun and a wonderful learning experience with Christine and our driver Young. Christine was so knowledgeable and taught us about Korean Culture, History and food. Sometimes tours get dry and stuffy, but we loved hanging out with Christine and had we known she also does tours to Busan, DMZ and other areas, we would’ve booked her as our private guide for our other day trips. She was very helpful at lunch in making sure we would find something we would like to eat (we are picky eaters), and all the interesting stories at the Palace and temple made the day go by too quickly. We also want to give a shout out to her driver, Young, who dropped us off right at the front steps of our destination and picked us up immediately when we were finished. Very comfortable transportation. If you get the chance, request Christine and Young, they are a lovely couple and made our day in Seoul very enjoyable.
Exhausting but enlightening

5.00Let me honest, there's a lot of walking so be prepared. My tour with Jake was wonderful. Jake provided extensive knowledge on the Korean culture that I wasn't aware of. Unfortunately, we weren't able to go to one of the original destinations but Jake made up for it by taking us to a more beautiful less crowded local attraction. I truly appreciate his attention to detail and his knowledge. Time and energy well spent. Thank you.
