Hello, I am Paul, a professional tour guide-docent with proven record track of over 200 tours for international tourists. I am the only tour guide in Seoul, who introduce Korean traditional culture, based on Confucianism. Confucianism is spirit of Joseon Dynasty that was last dynasty just before current Korea, and Confucianism is Korea's cultural identity. Based on basic knowledge of Confucianism, you can fully appreciate the beauty of Korean traditional architecture and culture, and so your travel to Seoul will be unforgettable and memorable in your life. My tour is to explore Korea’s unique cultural identity and beauty, based on simple-but-elegant beauty of Confucianism! Center of tour is architecture. Architectural style represents spirit of times. We can see as much as we know. For example, without knowledge about Christianity, the spirit of medieval Europe, we cannot fully appreciate beauty and value of Romanesque and Gothic architecture, but are just fascinated by its superficial beauty. My primary tourist destinations are focusing on Seoul and metropolitan area, consisting of Gyeongbokgung palace & Changdeokgung Rear Garden, Jongmyo Shrine, Bongeunsa Buddhist temple & Sunjeongneung Royal Tomb, Bukchon Hanok Village, National museum of Korea, War Memorial of Korea, other museums & galleries and contemporary architectures, and Namsan Mt. with N-Seoul Tower, traditional & trendy market places such as Gwangjang market & Hongdae street, and COEX-Starfield library in Gangnam area, and also Korean Folk Village & DMZ tour in neighboring cities. Alongside, I am specialist for hiking to Bukhansan Mt. and Inwangsan Mt. that are located in downtown Seoul, where you can enjoy beautiful natural sceneries and stunning view of Seoul. With my hands-on experiences and deep knowledge of Korea's culture & history, you can discover true insight and delight in Korea. Thank you for your interest! As your guide, I hope to see you soon in Seoul!

“A beautiful day in Gyeongju”
Peter picked us up at the cruise terminal and drove us through the beautiful countryside north of Busan. We spent the day exploring the ancient capital of Silla and the incredible tombs of past kings. Unfortunately, the AEPAC summit was in progress with a number of the important sites blocked off but we still had a very enjoyable and informative time with Peter who got us back to our ship with time to spare. A wonderful experience.

Hi Dennis. Thank you so much for your kind review. I'm also little sad that I couldn't show you more places because of the road restrictions, but I still had a great time with you and your wife. Hope to see you again. Good luck to you. Best regard Peter.

“Engaging and informative guide”
Peter is knowledgeable, personable and gave us a wonderful overview of both Silla cultural sites and the related, evolving archeological research shedding light into that period of Korea's history. When asked for more in-depth detail, he was able to give insights beyond that layed out at the various sites. Furthermore, when our conversation moved to life in 21stC S. Korea, Peter was a wealth of information which he passed on with a good mixture of serious discussion and approriate humor. Peter has a versatile background and thus can address a wide range of topics from economics to history. He also is quite accommodating; we had requested that we spend more time walking than driving which he suceeded in accomplishing ( more than 13km of walking during the 8 hrs together). All-in-all, We had a wonderful experience and would recommend Peter highly.
Peter J.
Thank you very much for your kind review. I also had a great time with you and Anne. And I was very impressed to meet a person working in one of the famous national park and it was fun to hear all about the story from you. Always good luck to you and Anne. Best regards Peter.

“Extra money well spent”
Peter was very accommodating when I booked Pohang tour, but also asked to go to Gyeoungju. It did cost a little more, but was well worth the extra cost for the tour that we got. Thank you Peter!
Peter J.
Thank you very much for your kind review. I also had a great time with your faimily. Good luck to you always. Thank you Peter.
