It was such a pleasure guiding you on the tour, Claire! I really appreciated your genuine interest in Korean history and enjoyed our conversations throughout the day. I hope your conference in Busan goes really well, and that you’ll also have time to make some wonderful memories there during your free time.

“My tour with Andy P.”

Having done many overseas trips with different guides I found my best experience was with Andy. His attention to you always was kind, caring attentive & made you feel safe. his knowledge on the history, navigation etc about Sth. Korea was amazing. So with confidence when planning a trip to Sth. Korea & you need a Private guide I highly recommend him. Many thanks Andy for all your help & making my trip to Sth. Korea a great one, it will always be a good memory. Jeanette.
