“Excellent day in Seoul”
Fantastic tour! We were very happy with Paul’s services as a tour guide. We were able to see many sights and gain a true appreciation for the Korean history and culture. He is a true gentleman and we would highly recommend this tour.
Paul K.
Customer's good words reward my dedication and commitment! Appreciation of traditional architecture, works of art and crafts require background knowledge. Confucianism is Korea's cultural identity. Confucian culture is unique attractiveness of Korean culture, compared to Chinese and Janpanese culture. Without knowledge of Confucianism, we cannot fully enjoy Korean tradtional culture.

“Enlightening Temple Tour with an Exceptional Guide”
Our visit to the temple was truly lovely , thanks to our gracious tour guide, David. He is not only knowledgeable but also organized, polite, and kind. The tour was thoughtfully planned, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the temple’s serene atmosphere and rich history. Our guide’s extensive knowledge of the temple’s spiritual, religious, and historical significance brought each detail to life. We learned about centuries-old traditions, the meaning behind various rituals, and the temple’s unique place in Korean culture. David has a genuine passion for sharing the temple’s story. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an insightful and meaningful temple visit in South Korea.
