“That best tour i have ”
Hi everyone! I highly recommend Sally; she is the best guide. • i loved the experience. Gyeongju is basically a real-life open-air museum. Her descriptions of all the events, followed by a stroll through the streets, made for an unforgettable experience

Sally K.
Haha! I think Seoul and Gyeongju got mixed up. :D We were in Seoul, remember? And that pagoda was actually the model at the National Folk Museum, a replica in the famous temple, Gyeongju. Anyway, thank you so much for the sweet review! I'm so glad you had a great time. Best wishes! Sally

“TWO FANTASTIC DAYS OF TOURS IN SEOUL WITH SALLY K”
We booked two days of tours in Seoul with Sally day 1 historic tour of Seoul, day 2 modern Seoul, we were we totally blown away by Seoul as a city, and Sally was a really amazing guide was incredibly knowledgeable took us to all the sights we would never have found or known about ourselves, having discussed prior to our trip what we would like to do and tailoring exactly to suit our needs, her English was excellent, and as my husband had a knee injury arranged for a very comfortable car and driver for both days of the tours, I would highly recommend using Sally if you are looking for a guide in Seoul.

“Fabulous historical insights with Sally!”
If you love history, Sally is the absolute best guide you could ask for. She is so knowledgeable and passionate about the places we visited. Just keep in mind that it is a very active, walking-heavy tour. Make sure you check the weather forecast before you go, as it might be tough to handle on a really hot day. Thanks again, Sally!

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!
