South Korea Private Tour Guides

“Encyclopedic Knowledge”

David was by far the most seasoned guide we have worked with. His life experience and vast knowledge of the subject made the tour an unforgettable stop in Seoul.

“Excellent Guide”

Very interesting and helpful guide. Went beyond the call of duty and took us to the Unification Observatory giving an excellent view of North Korea. Neo hesitation recommending Don L.

“More “Rent a Local Friend” than tour guide ”

My experience with Jeeseon was undeniably the best part of my 2 week trip to South Korea. I had a very specific activity in a very crowded market plus a specific park to visit on a busy Sunday during cherry blossom festival on my wishlist and Jeeseon said “no problem, sounds fun, let’s go!” We communicated effortlessly, met up without a hitch and proceeded with our adventures as if we’d been friends all along. She translated for me, shopped with me, bought snacks and navigated the bus route to the park like a pro. She took pictures for me, we picked out street food to share and I felt like I was hanging with a very cool friend the whole time. She doesn’t just show you what you asked to see, she enjoys it with you, making the whole day feel relaxing. I knew I had made the right choice picking Jeeseon to accompany me as we chatted and watched the crowds mingle along the river. She was booked with another tour after mine ended, which disappointed me since I would have gladly paid more to enjoy more of her insights, advice and company. I’ve visited South Korea 4 times now, traveled to many other countries and have dealt with many tour guides along the way. Not a single one comes close to the care and kindness that Jeeseon showed during our day together.

Thank you so much for this beautiful review! It really means a lot to me. Your message came at a time when I really needed it, and it gave me so much comfort and energy. Honestly, that day really felt like I was hanging out with a friend, not guiding a tour. Walking through the market, choosing food together, taking the bus, and spending time by the river all felt so natural and fun. And I still remember how beautiful you looked in the hanbok. It suited you so well. Next time you come to Korea, let’s meet again, eat something delicious, and just enjoy the day like real friends. Thank you again. I truly, truly appreciate it.
