Yes! South Korea is built for daily interaction and exposure through a local guide. With a local’s perspective, you can; Understand the layers of cultural nuance as a local resident translates that significance for you.

Q: Is English spoken in South Korea?

“Make your trip to Korea a success - get Kwan to help you!”

Here you have the perfect guide to organise your trip. He can help with as much or as little as you need for visiting Korea. In my case it was a one day trip to visit historical sites in Andong province. He adapted the agenda to fit what I wanted. Provided valuable insights and details on each location positioning it historically as well as some important events in its history. The first site we visited was a Confucian University set up in the Josean Period which is in a beautiful location and has a really calm and relaxing feel in the middle of nature. We also visited an important temple in the hills before having a very good lunch. A big highlight of the tour for me was the Masked Dance in the Hanok village. The context was explained in advance and it consisted of a series of sketches which were comical and satirizing. Translation of what the players were saying were displayed on a screen in English, Chinese and Japanese which made a big difference in following and understanding the sketch. It is definitely worth a visit but be aware that you need to queue early as only 200 people are allowed into the show. Andong is almost two hours by train away from Seoul. Kwan made the trip very easy by arranging the train tickets, having some water and food for the train trip as well as being a very interesting conversationalist, arranging for a car in Andong and then driving to each location. So you can put yourself in his hands and just enjoy the trip and the sites as he has covered all the details.

Kwan J.

Thank you so much, Gerry, for your kind review! It was truly my pleasure to spend the day with you. You were a wonderful guest—so gentle, understanding, and engaging throughout our time together. I also deeply appreciated the opportunity to learn more about Ireland and the issues close to your heart. It was a meaningful exchange for me, and I’m grateful for the connection we shared.

“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.
