“Ari went Above and Beyond – Highly Recommended!”
We had an amazing experience in Seoul thanks to our incredible tour guide, Ari. Her English was excellent, and she was not only knowledgeable about Korean history and daily life but also incredibly kind and helpful throughout the entire day. Ari went above and beyond—after the tour, she helped us book train tickets and even arranged medication for us. She truly made our trip smoother and more enjoyable. A lovely, caring person and a fantastic guide—highly recommended! P.S.: Ari - if you come to London please let us know. We would love to meet you and show you our home city :)

“Amazing Tour”
Kwan is the man! My son and I spent the afternoon with him. He knows the history very well - speaks excellent English and just delightful to be around. Don't pass this man up!

Thank you so much for your kind review, Chris and Jake! It was truly a pleasure guiding you on the DMZ tour. Your genuine interest in Korean history inspired me to share everything I could with full passion and dedication. I really appreciated our meaningful conversations and the energy you brought to the experience. And what an awesome surprise to learn that all three of us graduated from the same college—Go Terps! That unexpected connection made our time together even more special. Hope your journey home was smooth, and may your curiosity continue leading you to fascinating places, near and far!

“Top-Notch Busan Tour”
Changwoo provided my five-person multigenerational family with members ages 12 through 75 with an excellent tour of Busan during our cruise's day at port in the city. Once he assessed my group was comfortable with stairs and walking at a moderate pace, he added several locations to our itinerary so that we could see more. His car was extremely comfortable for five passengers and air conditioned, which was much appreciated in the Busan summer heat. I am glad we toured with Changwoo as it would have been impossible to see so many attractions all around the city without a guide with a private car. Changwoo met us at our cruise ship terminal upon arrival, and he arranged for our return an hour before the all-aboard time so that we would not feel anxious about the timing of reboarding. Changwoo took us to "hidden gem" destinations as well as tourist highlights, provided a history of the city, and even made time for special request cosmetic shopping for my teenage daughter. We visited far more sites with Changwoo than we would have on a cruise ship excursion, simply due to being more nimble as a smaller group than on a bus of 40. Additionally, Changwoo happily took photos of my family at the various spots, which are great to add to our album! Changwoo's English is excellent, and he has an easy-going, upbeat disposition.
