About Tour Guide Kelly O.

“Kelly O - the amazing Guide!”

Just had a tour with Kelly today. All I can tell you is she is smart, super knowledgeable and highly dedicated to her craft of being the best tour guide and meeting the needs of her clients. I worked with her to curate a classic Seoul tour with additions of a few different places I was interested in. She was more than capable of putting together an amazing itinerary and had lots of insight on each place visited. If you are looking for an amazing and insightful tour guide to see Seoul and gain an understanding of Korean culture look no further…Kelly is it! Highly recommend!!

“A fascinating and comprehensive introduction to life in Seoul ”

Anyone wishing to get a realistic and interesting glimpse of life in Seoul, can be sure that Kelly is a guide that can be trusted to provide you with a unique and all encompassing experience. Prior to booking the tour, Kelly worked with us to arrange an itinerary that covered our wish list and she went out of her way to make helpful suggestions. Kelly is an experienced guide. Her English is fluent and she is well informed and punctual. She is flexible and goes out of her way to be as practical as possible. We really enjoyed our time with her. She is personable and informative. At the end of our two days of touring, we felt as though we were leaving a friend. Thank you so much Kelly for all that you have done for us. You are a commensurate professional.

Hi Tim, thank you so much for your kind review! It was such a pleasure meeting you and your wife. I felt the same way, we had a wonderful time together, and the tour was truly special. I was sad and a bit upset when we had to say goodbye. :( I'm really glad you enjoyed your time, and I hope the rest of your trip was just as lovely. Thank you for being such an amazing customer, and even more, a friend!!!

“First timers in Seoul”

Being our first time in Korea, we felt very intimidated not knowing anything about the culture, transportation or area. Not to mention being an only english speaking family. We found Kelly on GWG, she responded quickly and was able to answer all our questions. Even helped with our travel days and gave us great advice. We wanted to get a taste of Seoul. We only planned to be there only 2 sightseeing days and Kelly planned a great itinerary for us. We wanted to shop, eat and see some of the cultural (tourist) sites. We visited many places including the emperors palace and Seoul Tower. Went to a couple of street markets and hit some major shopping districts like Apgujung and Seongsu. I have to say one thing about Seoul, Kelly showed us taxis are great public transportation. Quick, direct and not expensive like Tokyo. Seoul has some great shopping, especially for young adults like our son. Kelly made sure he had lots of options. Found some of the merch he wanted including a new drop that was just released! Even found a Pop Mart that had "Labubu" but we missed getting one. Myeongdong Street is a great place to walk around, shop and eat. There are lots of street food vendors and great shops everywhere you look. Kelly is a joy, easy going and made our first trip to Korea a blessing. She planned everything and showed us how to navigate and get around Seoul. Her english is like she is from the U.S. We couldn't ask for a better guide. Thank you so much, we appreciate all you did to make our trip such a success! All your help and guidance is and was greatly appreciated!
