“A wonderful experience”
Kwan created a wonderful customized 2 day itinerary for us. We enjoyed the local sights and food, and had a beautiful picnic by the Han River. His guidance and help at the local markets made the experience educational and fun. Kwan's English is very good as is his knowledge of the area. He had many interesting stories to tell and is a great conversationalist. Do not hesitate to book Kwan as your guide.
