Hayoung Y.

Hi, I’m Hayoung. You can also call me Iris. I have always been drawn to things that feel different, so I want to make your trip less typical, more personal, and closer to the local side of Korea. I’m a licensed local guide based in Seoul, with a young, trendy, and stylish perspective on Korea. I love introducing both the classic side of Seoul, such as palaces, history, and culture, and the modern local side, including fashion, cafés, beauty, food, hidden spots, and current trends. Before becoming a guide, I worked as a travel blogger and majored in fashion design. This background helps me create tours with a good sense of storytelling, photo spots, style, and practical travel tips. I also have my own curated list of more than 1,000 restaurants & beautiful spots, so I can recommend food & sightseeing spots based on your taste, budget, mood, and travel style. I can also create custom tours based on your interests, whether you want modern Seoul, palace tours, fashion and shopping, local food, Korean nature, or even remote hidden destinations beyond Seoul. (especially NATURE) More than anything, I truly love travel and meeting people from around the world. My goal is to make you feel comfortable and excited, like exploring Korea with a local friend who also happens to be a professional guide. Let’s explore Korea together and make your trip unforgettable!

Kevin L.

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 9 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.
