“A wonderful day with Charlie”

We had a great day with Charlie, we had a late flight home @ 23.55 so we wanted to make the best of our last day and we did. Charlie is very quick to answer any messages you may send him which is very reassuring. Charlie met us from the ship, he was respectful, polite and entertaining, his car was very clean and comfortable, We had had a hectic 3 weeks so we just wanted a day that wasn't too busy and this was just right, Charlie took some nice photos for us (I'm rubbish at selfies) he is vey knowledgeable about South Korea and knows the answer to anything you may ask him, by the end of the day we felt we had a new friend. I would recommend Charlie to anyone looking for a polite, helpful guide, he will make a trip to suit your needs and you will have a wonderful day. Thank you Charlie, we had fun. Brian & Josie

Charlie C.

I am also very grateful for your kind words and wonderful feedback about my guiding. They mean a great deal to me. I hope to have the pleasure of seeing you both again someday. Thank you once again, and I wish you both good health, happiness, and many more wonderful travels! Warmest regards, Charlie

“Great Tour”

From the initial interaction Charlie was responsive and eager to help. He asked the follow up questions in order to understand our interests. He then proposed a highly customized tour and then worked with us further to adjust it based on what we wanted to see. On the day of the tour he showed up on time with a clean and comfortable vehicle. During the tour he showed his deep knowledge of Seoul, its history and its architecture. It was a memorable tour that we enjoyed and will remember. Charlie is a real pro! Ben

Charlie C.

Dear Ben Gurdus, It was a great pleasure to guide you on our architecture tour of Seoul, visiting the Amorepacific Headquarters, Sebitseom, Lotte World Tower, and Dongdaemun Design Plaza. I especially enjoyed exploring the distinctive architectural character of each place with you—from the open courtyards and thoughtful spatial design of the Amorepacific Headquarters, to the unique floating architecture of Sebitseom on the Han River, the impressive vertical scale and panoramic views of Lotte World Tower, and the flowing curves and dynamic spaces of Dongdaemun Design Plaza. I sincerely appreciate your enthusiasm and genuine interest throughout the entire experience, from preparing the tour to visiting and discussing each architectural site together. Our conversations about the buildings, their design concepts, and how they relate to Seoul made the tour especially meaningful for me as well. Thanks to your thoughtful questions and passion for architecture, I also had a wonderful opportunity to study, learn, and discover many new things along the way. Thank you very much for your kind review and positive feedback. It truly means a lot to me. I hope the tour gave you not only memorable impressions of these remarkable buildings, but also a deeper sense of Seoul through its architecture and urban landscape. Warm regards, Charlie Choi

“DMZ tour with Charlie”

We had an awesome day with Charlie touring the DMZ zone. All communications prior to our arrival were perfect. He is extremely knowledgeable in the history as well as anything we may have asked. We had plenty of time to see the sights, he instructed us along the way with what you can and cannot do. He has a good sense of humor, is a careful driver so we felt comfortable all day. I cannot recommend Charlie enough! If you are interested in the DMZ tour, get in touch with Charlie. He also offered pickup and drop off at the airport which worked perfect for us! Thanks Charlie!

Charlie C.

Dear Diane, Thank you very much for participating in today’s tour. I truly had a wonderful time touring with you and your husband today. Especially for the DMZ tour, I sincerely appreciate your kind and thoughtful review. I hope we can meet again on your next visit to Korea. Thank you once again!
