About Tour Guide Kane K.
I’ve been a certified tour guide since 2016, after spending over 15 years in international sales. While that was a meaningful chapter, guiding tours quickly became more than just a job — it became my true calling.
There’s something magical about meeting new people from all over the world. The moment I greet a new group, I feel energized and excited to share the rich history, culture, and everyday life of Korea. I believe that every tour is a chance to build a connection, exchange stories, and create lasting memories together.
Let me be your guide, and I promise you’ll leave Korea with unforgettable experiences — and maybe even miss me a little when you head back home.
Looking forward to exploring Korea with you!

“Highlights of Seoul”
Kane, Assisted me with creating a 2 day custom itinerary for Seoul. He was very responsive to customizing the itinerary and very flexible on changing the schedule even on the day. In two days we covered the highlights of Seoul and Kane was very knowledgeable. I loved the old market and the Palace which was made a very special memory. He also made sure to take plenty of photo's of me on my solo trip.

Dear Cheryl, Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure helping you explore Seoul and being part of your journey. I'm glad we could shape the itinerary to suit your interests and pace. Traveling solo takes courage, and I’m happy I could help make the experience more enjoyable and memorable. Wishing you all the best on your future travels — and if you ever return to Korea, it would be a joy to see you again! Warm regards, Kane

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.
