“Great complement to the historical tour Sally also offers”
This was my second of two tours with Sally. The idea was to go through the history and development of South Korea early on and then a few days later check the most modern and trendy spots in the more upscale neighborhoods in Seoul and it worked out exactly that way. Sally also arranged private transportation that turned the day a bit more comfortable, which was trully appreciated. The day went so well that it made me plan on returning to Seoul at some point soon to experience the cultural aspect (museums, art exhibitions and events) of the city in more depth than I did this time around.

Hi Rafael, Thank you so much for taking the time to write another lovely review! I hope you’ve made it home safely by now and are getting some well-deserved rest. I truly cherish the two days we spent together. They were so special to me, and I’ll always remember them. Just as you hoped and I promised, when you come back to Korea, I’ll show you even more and share many more stories with you. And of course, we still have to do the DMZ tour together! :D I already miss you. ㅜㅜ Have a great weekend and take good care of yourself! Best wishes, Sally

“Great deep dive into the history of South Korea”
This was my first of two tours with Sally. Her knowledge of the history and development of South Korea is great and she paced the day extremelly well. I had a great time getting to see the historical sights in the morning and a very pleasant afternoon bridging across to modern time checking out the famous Gwangjang Market, Cheonggye Plaza and the shopping district. I'm really glad I booked this tour early on the trip.

“Amazing Day in Seoul with Sally”
Sally provided us with an incredible tour four our family of 4 on our first day in Seoul. Sally was communicating with me before we left for Korea, confirming the logistics, and working to personalize our upcoming experience. She met us promptly at our hotel, helped our family set up a full-day taxi rental (it was a rainy day so very needed) , and guided us ALL over the city. She made sure we saw so much of Seoul’s history, culture, food, cafe culture and shopping all in one day! Sally was so knowledgeable, friendly and thoughtful as well. She even sent us pictures she had taken of our family, as well as recommendations for the rest of our Korea trip. This experience was a 10/10 and I would highly recommend Sally for your Seoul experience!
