My tour programs are designed to provide you with authentic and meaningful experiences of Korea, focusing on its rich culture, history, and traditions rather than fleeting trends.

Kevin L.

I received a license in 2016 from the Korea Tourism Organization as a qualified professional tour guide. I have guided a variety of tours for people and tourists from all over the world and have been doing so for over 9 years. Before being a tour guide I spent most of my career working in the banking industry for almost 30 years, starting with Korea First Bank which later became a US based Newbridge Capital and UK based Standard Chartered Bank until I retired in 2016. My experience in the banking industry was very much customer-first and dealing with the public which laid the cornerstone and passion to becoming a tour guide. After retiring from the bank, I worked as a lecturer for a volunteering organization run by the local public office and taught students about the environment and disabilities. With various experiences and personal management skills, these challenges have provided a real life, hands on cultural nuances which will promote friendship and expand life experiences between different cultures. I'm based in Seoul but will be happily arrange the tours to Busan, Gyeongju, Sokcho, Jeonju etc. as a customized tour. Feel free to drop me a request message.

Welcome to Korea! Welcome to Seoul! My name is Minho, and I am a licensed tour guide offering private tours in Korea. Having been born and raised in a small town, completed my high school and college education in a bustling city, and subsequently residing in Seoul for the past 25 years, I bring a wealth of experience to my role. With a professional background spanning over 29 years in both local and global companies within the automotive and IT industries, I am confident that traveling with me will be a captivating and enriching experience. My 30-month military service at a US army base in Korea becomes particularly advantageous during a DMZ tour, offering valuable insights into the history and relationship between North and South Korea. Driven by a passion for sharing knowledge, experiences, and insights into Korean culture and lifestyle, I am equally eager to learn from you. I am confident in my ability to ensure you have a memorable and enjoyable stay in Korea. Having served as an official tour guide during the 2018 Winter Olympics in Korea, where I facilitated the transportation of athletes and tourists between the Olympic Village and Seoul over a two-week period, I am well-versed in managing diverse needs and expectations. All of my tours are custom-tailored to your preferences, guaranteeing exciting days filled with learning about our people, history, and culture, visiting remarkable places, and capturing beautiful moments through photography. If you aspire to create unforgettable memories during your stay in Korea, I encourage you to contact me promptly. * National English speaking tour guide license issued by KTO (Korea Tourism Organization) * Official tour guide for 2018 Winter Olympic in Korea * 20+ Experience in global companies * Military service in US army in Korea

DMZ(Demilitarized Zone)+Gamaksan Suspension Bridge-Korea

“Kevin is the best! Ask for him!”

Kevin kicked us up at our hotel around 8 for a full day DMZ tour for six of us. He is a wonderful driver (can fit in any size space), and very knowledgeable about everything. He was so accommodating and honored all of our requests. He’s also a great picture taker. He was on time and knew the answer to every question. He’s the man! On the way home, my husband’s foot was bothering him and Kevin called up the urgent care near our hotel and dropped him off. At an orthopedic urgent care, which we never would have known to do. That was so helpful! I would highly recommend him!!!

Kevin L.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure spending the day with all six of you on the DMZ tour. I’m very glad I could help make your day comfortable and enjoyable, and especially that I could assist your husband when his foot was bothering him. I hope he is feeling much better. I hope you have many more wonderful travels and memorable experiences together! Warm regards, Kevin Lee

“Excellent Guide”

Thoroughly enjoyed my day trip, guided by Hayoung. We explored the older streets and also unique local areas that I wouldn’t be able to easily navigate to by myself. I felt I saw all the places I wanted to see and went at my own pace. It felt like an authentic and memorable experience. Hayoung is an excellent guide who filled in tidbits of information along the way and also considered my desires and needs. Can’t go wrong. Book her.

Hayoung Y.

Thank you for your kind review Jeremy! I also enjoyed the day with you so much. It's always enjoyable to show the true face of Korea. And thank you for loving Korea more than I do. I Hope to see you again:)
