Above and Beyond

Kwan was an excellent guide for our DMZ tour. He truly went above and beyond to tailor our trip for what we needed timing wise, sight seeing wise and food wise. He was punctual, great at communicating and the vehicle was luxury. Highly recommend.

Thank you again for your thoughtful review, Adrean. I truly enjoyed spending time with you, and as I mentioned before, I hope you’ll visit Korea again soon!

A wonderful day with Kwan!

We really enjoyed our trip to Andong with Kwan. He picked us up promptly and was a very safe driver. The morning was bitterly cold, and he gave us hand warmers. Kwan was always attentive and showed us many kindnesses. We enjoyed visiting and learning about neo Confucian seowons, Bongjeongsa Temple with the oldest wooden building in Korea, and the Hahoe Folk Village in Andong. We also watched the Mask Dance. Kwan was a very knowledgeable guide, and you could tell he really loves the places on his tour. The scenery of the whole area was gorgeous, even in winter. It must be breathtakingly beautiful in other seasons. The restaurant we had lunch at was quaint and the food was delicious! Kwan took a lot of nice photos. By the end of the day, we felt like Kwan was our good friend. Andong is not to be missed and Kwan is the perfect guide to take you there! Thank you Kwan, for a wonderful day trip!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I truly appreciate your kind words and the way you mentioned each place we visited together. It was my great pleasure to guide you both—such a warm, humorous, and thoughtful couple. I especially enjoyed our conversations about family and the hopes we share for our sons as parents. Moments like those make guiding meaningful for me. I’m grateful for the time we spent together in Andong, and I’m delighted to hear the day was memorable for you as well. Wishing you both many more beautiful travels ahead, and I hope our paths cross again someday.
