Complete Freedom and flexibility
Personalised private tours give you total freedom and flexibility. The tour itinerary and schedule is entirely focused and planned around you.
More exclusivity
While group tours rely on buses filled with other travellers, private tours allow you to choose who will accompany you on your trip.
Special care and assistance
Having your own personal guide and transportation provides you with that extra special care and attention. This is especially helpful if you are travelling with young children, elderly relatives, disabled travellers, those with medical conditions, special needs or mobility issues.
Your own personal tap of local knowledge
Having your own personal guide means there is no competing with other travellers to get the attention of your guide or to have your questions answered. Instead, you’ll have access to a tap of local culture and knowledge.
Wheelchair accessible
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller
Public transportation options are available nearby

We had a wonderful time with our tour guide, Alice, and our driver, Mr. Lee. They were professional, thoughtful, and attentive to our every need. Mr. Lee was the best driver and made us feel safe in the busy Seoul city traffic. Alice took time to explain the story behind every location that we visited. We were able to go at our own pace as we were traveling with an elderly mom and children. Highly recommend the tour!

Our tour guide Sunny was absolutely amazing!! She went above and above to give us the best experience possible. It was foggy and we couldn't see some areas so she sent us personal photos. She adopted the tour so we could see the area where I lived on the DMZ

We had a great experience with Diana today. Started by changing into traditional Hanbok and then walked to the palace to watch the changing of guards ceremony. She was friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a tour guide in Seoul.
