“Alice K. is the best ever . . .”
Honestly, my experience using Alice as my guide could not have been better! She was so professional and communicated clearly. I was anxious arriving in a country that I did not know the language (and the words I tried sounded nothing like they should, so nobody had a prayer of understanding me). She communicated with me every step, letting me know she was at the airport and advising me from step 1. She helped me get set up with the internet, helped with luggage, got me checked into the hotel (great car service with water bottles, etc.), and then shared all her knowledge of Hongdae by giving me a wonderful tour. She was so professional. I highly recommend her especially for anyone who needs a kind person who enjoys helping you enjoy Korea. Seoul was amazing and she made sure I could relax and enjoy myself. She was wonderful. I fully intend on using her again the next time I come to South Korea. Thank you Alice for helping me make memories!!!

Hello Moira!! I'm glad to hear that you arrived home safely. I was very worried because the WhatsApp messages weren't connecting. I was so happy to spend a wonderful time with you, who came all the way to Korea in the cold winter to see your daughter. I hope our country feels even warmer to your daughter. You were truly a great traveler. I wanted to show you more of Korea as you tried to understand it and wanted to visit libraries here. If you ever come back to visit your daughter again, please let me know. I would love to show you more of how beautiful this country is, a place where your daughter can continue to enjoy living. Wishing you health and happiness always. Best Regards. From Alice.
“12 hour layover in Seoul”
I had a wonderful day with Alice on my layover. She met me right outside of customs and was excellent communicating where to meet. We had a fast and furious day seeing the sites, eating the food, and doing a little unexpected shopping for cold weather gear for me. I'm so grateful to have spent the day with Alice and to have seen a snapshot of Korea. It was fascinating!
Alice K.
Thank you, Val. I also had a really great time today. It felt like meeting a close friend after a long time. I especially enjoyed having so many fun conversations with you. I hope you get a good rest on the flight back and have a comfortable journey. Wishing you happiness always, and I hope your family stays healthy and does well.
“Visiting Seoul first time - Seoul's past and present!”
As first time tourists in Korea, my wife and I, we decided to have a local guide and it was a very rewarding decision because Alice, our guide, provided an excellent job. We'd like to say many thanks to her for introducing us to Korea and Korean people and we had great discussions about the past and present time of Korea and also about the future of Korean peninsula! Yeonk-ok, a.k.a. Alice, is very professional, with excellent knowledge and pleasant in conversation! She adjusted the tour to our requests and made us feeling great in this beautiful city! Ovi and Chris R. from Naples, Florida say a big THANK YOU VERY MUCH ALICE!
Alice K.
Hello, Ovi!! You and Cris must be tired from the long trip. Traveling always fills us with excitement and happiness. But it can be tiring too. For me, traveling has always been great because it gives me a chance to step away from my life and experience living a different one, even if just for a moment. I believe that you and Cris will enjoy your daily lives and then, someday, head off to another destination. I’m sure you’re happy because you have Cris, who is always kind and a true friend to you. I hope to meet you again someday. Have a wonderful daily life. Best regards. From Alice.

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 as for my performance in the concerned tours. 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. Come and enjoy with me! Sincerly, Andy *Qualification/License : Official English interpreting tourist guide (Korea Tourism Organization) Korean History Evaluation Test 1st Grade certificate.
