Exceptional guide!

Thomas was an exceptional guide. From enquiring about the booking to dropping us off at our hotel, Thomas provided a 5* service. Thomas was attentive, hospitable, knowledgeable, funny and welcoming and as a result, my family and I had a great time in South Korea. He even gave us our own photoshoot which we were very grateful for. Thank you Thomas for being a gracious host. I will recommend you to everyone and will certainly use you again if I come back to South Korea.

Thomas K.

I really appreciate your review. I am glad that you had a great time with me, even though you stayed in Korea for a while. I wish you good health, happiness and prosperity.

Unforgettable Tour with Thomas

The tour with Thomas I must say that it was so unforgettable. He was so fun and also really understand the history of the South Korea very well. We had an exciting adventure with him. Although it was rain since morning, he will make sure that our trip will be fun and insightful. He even helped us to carry the stroller together and what made us so unforgettable was that he knew every great spot for photos. He had his own professional camera brought with him and shots some great photos for us. He prepared the itinerary very well, and even for the lunch, he knows that we require halal food without asking. He brought us to this Korean Halal food restaurant. Not only that, since it was raining all day, and he knew that he need to improvise the itinerary, he asked us for our suggestion whether we want to go other places since some tourist place might not able to be visited due to rain. Again, above all, he's one of the most memorable person during our trip to Seoul. Very recommend to use his service. Those of you who are going to travel to Seoul and looking for a guide to show you around and have the knowledge of the history of South Korea, definitely he's the right person to be as your guide in Seoul.

Thomas K.

Thank you very much, Dhenu. I'm really flattered. It was my pleasure to guide your lovely family of 3 generations. Pleaae give my best regards to your family. I hope everything goes well with your family and we can meet sometime again. Stay healthy, be happy.

Personalized food and culture-focused day tour

Thomas was AMAZING! He easily understood the objectives of our team and helped us plan a productive and fun day. He displayed great knowledge of Korean culture, showed us some great sights, helped us arrange dinner reservations and basically made our day seamless, low-stress and easy. Thomas went above my expectations and helped us arrange a car for the day and it was stocked with cold water too. He is a kind, gentle person who cared deeply that we had a good time. If we ever come back to Tokyo and hire another tour guide, I wouldn't hesitate to look up Thomas again. 5-Star rating easily.

Thomas K.

Hi Joel. THANK YOU for your wonderful review. It was my pleasure to guide you and your team. I am glad that you had a good time in Korea even though it was rainy days. I hope your business prospers and you achieve amazing things.

An amazing tour

We really enjoyed our tour with Thomas. He was very professional and also very patient with my littles who got tired along the way. The fact that he also drove us around Seoul, that was a very big plus to eliminate lots of walking. Very knowledgeable and I learnt a lot on the tour. I felt like I covered most of all the things I wanted to see in Seoul. Thank you so much Sir for the amazing time.

Thomas K.

Thank you for your reply. I was my pleasure to guide you and lovely 2 kids. I am glad to hear that you had a good time with me. Have a safe and pleasant journey back home.

Half-day Intro to Seoul and Korean History

Seoul
3 hours 30 min

This is my most popular standard tour, perfect for any visiting Korea for a serious first look. It walks us through the best sights of Seoul's historic central downtown area, very close to each-other, while I tell the relevant colorful stories at each brief stop. It is completely flexible on the timing and number / nature of the sites visited; all depends on where I pick you up and drop you off, and just what you want to see and do. On this system I also offer a full-day version of this tour.
