Outstanding tour/guide

Published on Feb, 2025

Hwang was great. Took us to all of the sites we wanted to see and was very informative at each site. Previous reviewer commented about him walking fast, which is quite true! Ha! New, luxury SUV type vehicle stocked with water,cokes, and iced coffee beverages. Finished the day by driving to the DMZ where he again provided tons of information/context, making the trip so much more enjoyable.

An amazing day in Seoul!

Published on Dec, 2024

What a trip! Mr. Hwang was such an amazing guide. Good driver. The van came with a fridge loaded with water soda and iced coffee. He called and met us at the gate we exited at the airport very easily after we went through customs and was very knowledgeable on ever destination point we enjoyed. He recommended good street food and shared stories of history and culture as well. 100/10 he was amazing. We felt very taken care of, HIGHLY recommend this tour.

GREAT time and learned a lot too!

Published on Dec, 2024

Hwang was fantastic and i would particularly recommend if you like history. He has lived in Canada and Ukraine and knew some interesting facts about us history to help explain current korean evemts and insights into why certain korean MNC are struggling etc. Obviously very knowledgeable about korean history and has a great ride in a luxury suv. Took my gal to a great shoppiing area and we walked and ate as long as we wanted then pinged him and off we went. Some reviewers say he walks fast—exactly why i booked him and was not disappointed to say the least!!

Many sites to see on this tour!

Published on Dec, 2024

This layover tour was packed with many sites. Mr. Jeans moves fast to allow you to see many places in and around Seoul. My favorite parts were when he dropped me off for lunch and shopping, watching the changing of the guard, and seeing the village that gave you a peek into what traditional Korean houses looked like in the past. It is a large, bustling, modern city and I very much enjoyed leaving the airport on this tour.

a pleasant tour

Published on Nov, 2024

The guide and the tour were really good, and very flexible. We had an amazing day in Seoul. Thanks to Mr. Hwang.
