Awesome Tour Guide - Frank Yi was our tour guide for this tour guide on the trip to South Korea . We+ are from Hawaii and this was a "mini" honeymoon" for my wife and I after we both retried from our jobs in June 2023. We had a personalized trip with only our guide and us. Frank was a very friendly and well informed and took us to the King's Tombs, The Choi estate, the Ceramic shop and the UNCEO site # 24 the Buddha and the grotto. This was an experience beyond belief and it was awesome. I highly recommend Frank as an excellent tour guide and perfect access.
