Best Layover in Seoul!!! Don’t hesitate to book! - This tour was amazing- a great way to spend a layover in Seoul. Jonathan showed us all of the highlights and shared a lot of historical information. We had a lovely lunch, visited the temple, palace, old village, shopping “hipster” areas, etc. This is absolutely worth it if you are considering it. So easy to meet him at the airport and the entire day was wonderful.

A great way to see Korea-fast! - This was a great experience as my friend and I were traveling from Vietnam to the U.S. and had an extra day to spend in Korea. Janet, our tour guide, did an amazing job helping us to see so much in so little time! She was incredibly knowledgeable and was a true expert when navigating through ticket lines, traffic, etc. She maximized our time but didn’t exhaust us. Her English speaking skills and pre-trip communication were excellent. She picked us up from our hotel on time and had us back to the airport ready for our flight. This trip certainly convinced me to spend more time in Korea on my next journey to Asia.

One Day in Seoul - what a day - One Day in Seoul Korea - what a great day it was. Brian was lovely, felt safe with his driving, he was very informative. We and our luggage were collected at the cruise terminal promptly at 9 am. Taken into Seoul, about 1 hour 30 minutes drive. The Palace was both beautiful & enormous, then a walk round the Bukchon Hanok Village. Dropped off for lunch, then taken to a Buddest Temple and then to the Gandnam Style statue & a breathe taking library. Then 2 hour drive to Inchen Airport. All four of us thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Thanks Brian 😊 and thanks for being our photographer for the day too 📸

Learn about Korean art and history on your layover day - We had full day to do this tour. Jonathan picked us up at an Incheon hotel and braved the Seoul traffic to get us to the Royal Palace where we arrived in time to see a changing of the guards. Then we began to walk the palace grounds which took at least an hour. Because it was very cold, we decided to go to two museums in walking distance, a art/culture museum and a handicrafts exhibit hall. Both were very well done with excellent English translations that helped us gain a better understanding of Korean history and art. Afterwards we walked a street lined with artisan and clothing shops where we picked up a few handmade items. Then we faced return traffic again back to our hotel. Jonathan was a great guide. Highly recommended.

Best tour ever - It was a very nice experience. Bryan was so accommodating , supportive and gave us the best that he could give. The weather was so cold. -15 degrees. We were not prepared for that kind of weather. We were not dressed properly for the cold. Bryan took us first and foremost to the store where we got some stuff to make us warm and pick up some jackets, mittens and hats. Bryan gave us a good history of the place. We enjoyed it
