Ms. Junie was an amazing guide. She gave our group great historical context, memorable stories, and answered all of our additional questions. The tour was informative, delivering exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend the tour and the guide.

Great fabulous best Time

Published on Mar, 2025

We had a fabulous Time with great histories from Sookhee. That was one of our best day in Korea, Thank you so much again for This excellent tour!!!

One in a lifetime tour!

Published on Feb, 2025

Mr Young facilitated a smooth and comfortable tour to all the various stops (6! Way more than even expected) and kept us interested with his stories and humour. It’s a sensitive tour, but my family felt safe and well informed. Would highly recommend this specific tour as it was a smaller group and the weather was cool, meaning the tunnel and walking was manageable. Plus we finished with lots of time left in the day!
