Amazing Seoul history tour with Thomas

Went to another tour with Thomas to explore Seoul history by visiting Gyeongbokgung Palace, Presidential Blue House, Jeonju Hanok Village, and Insadong. Being a lover of Korea's history, I was impressed by Thomas' wealth of knowledge and he was able to explain them in layman terms so it is understandable for everyone. I was very happy by this and gained a better understanding/appreciation on Korean history. We have since become good friends and I look forward to do more tours with him next time I'm in Korea.

Alexander R.

Hello Alex. I'm flattered. I think you have as much knowledge about Korea, Korean society, and history as ordinary Koreans. You inspired me to do what I need to do as a tour guide. I hope to see you again someday.

Wonderful Kpop day tour with Thomas

I had a wonderful time with Thomas exploring various Seoul Kpop sites especially for BTS. I am impressed by his wealth of knowledge about Kpop and he even took me the other nearby Kpop sites that I was not aware of. I'll certainly learned a lot from his tour and will definitely use his service again in future.

Alexander R.

Thank you for your compliment. It was nice to meet you, and your knowledge of Korea was very impressive. I had a great time with you too. I hope everything goes well with you and your family.

Best day in Seoul with Thomas

What an incredible experience! We can’t thank Thomas enough for his time and commitment to making our short time in Seoul so beautiful. Thomas was on time and so accommodating to the sites we wanted to see. AND he takes the best photos throughout the entire tour!! My husband and I usually have to take selfies at each site we visit and having our own personal photographer and tour guide in one was amazing. We can’t say enough great things about our time in Seoul and that is because Thomas took such great care of us! We were able to see everything we wanted to see because Thomas was well organized and knew exactly where to go and where to park. If you are ever in Seoul, book a day with Thomas. You won’t be disappointed!

Juliana M.

Thank you very much indeed. I appreciate the feedback. It was my pleasure to guide your husband and you. I hope you enjoy your cruise and have a safe and pleasant journey back home. Stay healthy and always be happy.

Seoul

Paju is the nearest place where tourists can see the north Korea land crossed the border, drawn on 38th degree of north latitude right after the World War 2. After crossing the Southern Limit Line, we reach to the DMZ where is Dora Observatory and 3rd Infiltration tunnel built by north Korea. Sure you can definitely feel some scary but it is the most peaceful place in the world. Since we completed the DMZ tour run by the Paju city, then move to vicinity like Majang lake or Royal tomb.
