View on Google MapsSean was amazing!!! So polite, courteous and knowledgeable. More than a tour it felt like your old friend showing you his lovely country. 10/10. We got to see so many amazing places, learn the history and take awesome pictures.
This tour was a great way to see almost all the highlights of Seoul in a single day. I ended up on the tour alone with Hun and got so fortunate to have him as a guide. The first thing I’ll say is that Hun seems to know every single person in Seoul … a HUGE perk because you are then the friend of a friend. From palace guards to vendors at the market, we always had a friendly face to greet us and make sure I had an amazing time. This really stood out in the market food stalls, where I got to sample everything from kimchi to donuts to mini crabs. Hun is also extremely experienced and passionate about his country, which showed through at each of our stops: rich history at the palace, tidbits on each neighborhood as we surveyed the city from the N Seoul Tower, insider tips and connections at the market, a hidden gem tea house, local politics while perusing the Bukchon village, his own experiences with Buddhism at the Jogyesa temple … plus the million random questions about life in Korea I got to ask. A final thing I’ll say: it would never be feasible to do this alone. I got picked up in a van at my hotel and we got parking at all the sites, which cut the travel time to a minimum and made the day much easier physically, especially on a day with poor weather. All in all this tour is a great way to hit all the highlight in a single day with an incredibly passionate, insightful, and energetic guide. Highly recommend!

Han was a great guide! Messaged a day before with pickup time, picked up on time in a clean and tidy van and came prepared with an itinerary. It was a cold day and he had warmers handy for all of us. The midday time spent at the market was a mini sub informative tour in itself and I didn’t need any other “food tour” after taking Han’s recommendations there. Great driver and guide and great sense of humour!
We booked this tour last minute and Hun was patient and cooperative with working out our meet up details despite the fact that we lost internet access once leaving our hotel. Our Uber driver dropped us at the wrong location, but once we connected to a local business’ WI-FI, he came and found us then proceeded to show us everything we wanted to see in Seoul and then some. We recommend this tour…Tell your friends. They won’t be disappointed. Hun was wonderful to spend the day with and he went above and beyond to see that we enjoyed ourselves in his town. His recommendations for lunch were spot on. 10 STARS
Hun was an amazing guide! His wide knowledge about the history and the culture of Korea, and places we have visited was impressive. We also loved his personality. Very friendly and fun guy! We totally recommend him for English guided tour. We will definitely book him for our next trip back to Korea!
I don't know how to recommend this tour enough. Hun was a great tour guide and was very knowledgeable on things as small as a local shops and as big as the entire history of the temples. He knew the best places to eat at the market, and the best places to take photos. I highly recommend to anyone who enjoys an intimate tour where you don't have to wait for large groups to get all their photos in.
Amazing experience with a local expert!!Hun knows the city and every interesting corner! He is into the history and the habits of Seoul. It was nice to experience the local market and to visit Castle and the tower! Thanks Hun
See my previous comment, I made a mistake about the name of the guide (Soo and not Sam) who designed us a remarkable program (see my previous opinion)
Sam, our guide, adapted the program to give us a very nice overview of Seoul, given the crowding constraints. He took us to his secret places, inaccessible to the average tourist (panoramic view of the rooftops of Angong, visit of the Palace at the opening, panoramic road to Seoul. Bravo and thank you to him!
Hun is an amazing guide — super friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. He made the whole trip really enjoyable and took us to many great places around Seoul, from popular spots to hidden gems. He shared interesting stories and made sure everything went smoothly. I had a great time and would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Seoul!
