Exceeded my expectations. Like talking and walking with a new friend - One of the best walking tours I’ve ever done and that’s sort of my travel obsession! Jason was incredible. Warm, friendly, knowledgeable and so much fun. Lively conversation, local finds and it all goes so fast. Do yourself a favor and book Jason for a one of a kind Seoul experience!

Great tour in Seoul - We had the pleasure of having Ho Jin as our tour guide during our trip to Seoul, and he truly made our experience unforgettable! He took us through the many facets of Seoul, from its rich history to its vibrant modern culture, highlighting his personal favorite spots along the way. Ho Jin was incredibly attentive to our interests and made sure we got the most out of every stop. What really stood out was how approachable and engaging he was. We felt comfortable asking him any questions, and he was always happy to answer, providing us with insights that went beyond the typical tour. If you're planning a visit to Seoul, we highly recommend Ho Jin as your tour guide. He will make your trip truly special!

Great time! - My tour guide was Cristina and she was absolutely lovely! She took into consideration everything I was interested in and showed me all the place. I loved the tea place that we visited (it was a filming location for "Goblin"), and she was very knowledgable when it comes to history facts, which I greatly appreciated as I'm a history fan. Highly recommended!

Thanks for a great intro to Seoul - We had been so looking forward to our first trip to South Korea for many months. Having done lots of research of what we wanted to see and do in our time in the city we shared our list with Sanghee. She came up with a great itinerary and we saw soooo much of the city. THANK YOU!

A great start to Seoul - We signed up for a Kickstart to Seoul. Ho Jin showed how to use the subway along with taking us to various parts of town. Afterwards we were amazed how much we covered. He did an excellent job describing what we were seeing. At the end he dropped us off at a small restaurant for gimbap. It was a great way to start our first day in Seoul. Highly recommend.

Informative, efficient, and great with kids! - Cristina was a great guide. Very informative of the history and culture. She is also flexible at changing plans and pivoting to make sure everyone has a good time, which is a God send with jet lagged kids. She asked my kids lots of questions to get to know them and got them talking to her like a buddy. She is also very efficient! We went to a castle on a national holiday so the lines were long, but she knew how to maneuver our family to get us in quicker. Overall I would highly recommend!
