I received a license in 2016 from the Korea Tourism Organization as a qualified professional tour guide. I have guided a variety of tours for people and tourists from all over the world and have been doing so for over 6 years. Before being a tour guide I spent most of my career working in the banking industry for almost 30 years, starting with Korea First Bank which later became a US based Newbridge Capital and UK based Standard Chartered Bank until I retired in 2016. My experience in the banking industry was very much customer-first and dealing with the public which laid the cornerstone and passion to becoming a tour guide. After retiring from the bank, I worked as a lecturer for a volunteering organization run by the local public office and taught students about the environment and disabilities. With various experiences and personal management skills, these challenges have provided a real life, hands on cultural nuances which will promote friendship and expand life experiences between different cultures. I'm based in Seoul but will be happily arrange the tours to Busan, Gyeongju, Sokcho, Jeonju etc. as a customized tour. Feel free to drop me a request message.

Who you travel with is as important as where you go and what you see. Here I am for you! I have obtained official tour guide certificate in 2018. I appreciate a lot of good reviews and kudos directly to me or indirectly through multi-national or Korean travel agencies. Here are some extracts from the reviews. Quote; "Our tour guide Andy, in south Korea was exceptional, making the experience both educational and entertaining. His in-depth knowledge about the history and culture of the area was impressive, and he shared fascinating stories that brought the sites to life. His passion for the job was extremely good, leaving us with wonderful memories and a deeper appreciation for Korea." ; Unquote On this ocassion, I would like to express gratitude from my warm heart to all the travelers whom I have met. And, more about myself, I was born and raised in Seoul. Before becoming a tour guide, I had been working in Petrochemical Industry for major Korean conglomerates for quite a long timeframe. And, for developing overseas business projects of the enterprises. I resided in Indonesia and Vietnam as an expatriate for about 9 years. Working in an international business environment and in a big organization gave me chances to broaden my views of the world and better understand diverse perspectives, cultures, religion, economics and politics as well. And, as I like reading books, my understanding about Korean history and human beings have been deepened with time. You will see real Korea with the unviased vision through the eyes of real Korean. Multiple days tour is also recommended. I can organise it reflectimg your tastes! Come and enjoy with me!

Hello everyone, I am Paul, a English tour guide in Seoul. I am proven & professional tour docent with hosting of over 200 tours for international tourists and with state license as a guide. Seoul is a fascinating destination that seamlessly blends the traditional with the modern. Our tour to explore Korea’s unique cultural identity and beauty! Center of tour is architecture. Architectural style represents spirit of times. We can see as much as we know.

Confucianism is the spirit of Joseon Dynasty. Confucianism is Korea's cultural identity, that is reflected on palaces and traditional architecture. I am the only Confucian culture tour curator and docent guide in Korea who introduces Korean traditional Confucian culture. Tour and information based on Korea's unique Confucian culture will help you discover joy and wonder of unique Korean culture. My primary tourist destinations are focusing on Seoul and metropolitan area, consisting of 5 palaces, Royal Ancestral Shrine, Bukchon Hanok Village, National museum of Korea, War Memorial of Korea and other museums & galleries and contemporary architectures, and Namsan Mt. with N-Seoul Tower, traditional & trendy market places such as Gwangjang market & Hongdae street, and also Korean Folk Village & DMZ tour in neighboring cities. Alongside, I am specialist for hiking to Bukhansan Mt. and Inwangsan Mt. that are located in downtown Seoul, where you can enjoy beautiful natural sceneries and stunning view of Seoul. With my hands-on experiences and deep knowledge of Korea's culture & history, you can discover true discoveries in Korea. Thank you for your interest! As your guide, I hope to see you soon in Seoul!

Hi, I’m Hoshie! I’m a national government licensed tour guide from Osaka. I moved to Kagoshima in 2021, and after living here for four years, I’ve completely fallen in love with this amazing place. That’s why I decided to become a guide in Kagoshima! Kagoshima is a perfect blend of stunning nature and rich culture. We can see the majestic Sakurajima volcano from the city, which reminds us the powerful natural forces. Kagoshima was home to major Meiji Restoration figures, so history lovers will find plenty to explore. And of course, the food is incredible—famous for Kurobuta (Berkshire pork), Satsuma-age (fried fish cakes), and Shochu (a local distilled spirit). I’m passionate about history and love visiting historical sites all over Japan, especially in Kyoto and Nara, where I can explore Japan's ancient history. I also like outdoor activities like kayaking, hiking, and camping. Kagoshima’s natural landscape is perfect for these adventures, so there’s always something new to discover! I look forward to sharing wonderful Kagoshima with you and making unforgettable memories together!
