Thank you so much for your review — I truly appreciate you taking the time to write it. I also had a wonderful time guiding you and your group. It was a pleasure spending the day together and sharing Korea with you. I hope you’ll come visit Korea again in the future. I’d be very happy to guide you anytime. Warm regards, Kwan

“Excellent day out in Seoul and the DMZ”

We had a very good trip with Kwan and would recommend him to others . Our day started in time at 730 and we were picked up and taken to the DMZ. Kwan provided a good overview in very good English of the history of Korea and what led to the creation of the DMZ. We all had to transfer to the bus which took us to the three points on the DMZ tour and Kwan joined us and given our tight timetable he guided us through the important and interesting bits well. We didn’t really know what to expect and were left with a pleasant feeling of nature in full health in the zone where humans don’t go ! We explored a food market with Kwan on our way back to Seoul, exploring a range of foods and eating them in a near by cafe. Nice variety of things we had seen the previous night in another market but were too timid to try . After lunch we headed to the main palace in Seoul and Kwan proved to be a good tour guide giving us the history, pointing to architectural design and building details too which really enhanced the visit. The next day when we visited the second palace alone we felt like experts already as we spotted similar features. After we headed to a spot where we caught a bus up to the top of the hill to catch the last minutes of sunset on the city wall . Great views and we then walked down , stopping at a beautiful cafe spot for an energy boost, finding the car at the end of the walk. A long day, nearly 12 hours in all , and Kwan kept up our energy levels and we enjoyed discussions about all sorts of topics which really enhanced our appreciation of this lovely country and its people . We only had one full day in Seoul and best decision to have Kwan to guide us for the day - he is more expensive than some but top quality and worth it - Thank you Kwan for a very special day together

Hi Richard, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I truly appreciate your kindness and your genuine interest in our culture and history — it really inspired me and gave me the energy and joy to guide you throughout the day. I sincerely enjoyed every moment we spent together. I hope you have an amazing time in Japan for the rest of your vacation, and I look forward to seeing you again in the future. And thank you for your humorous jokes — I loved them and they made the tour even more fun. Wishing you both safe travels and great memories ahead.

“Eating and shopping our way through Seoul”

Kwan was an exceptional guide. He was so easy going and knew so many local hot spots to take us to. We spent two full days with him, he gladly extended our day for no extra charge so we could get some other experiences we hadn't planned. We saw the changing of the guards at the palace and had coffee in the Starbucks at Aegibong on the border of North Korea. We also stopped by a bakery which was a converted factory for the most delectable treats. Every photo pops and every experience was a must see and do. We added stuff onto an already full schedule based off his suggestions and those were some of our highlights. Highly recommend Kwan. He knows his stuff and is so diligent and pleasant.
