“Tour of DMZ ”
We had an amazing time with Sally on our tour. From booking to getting us back safely, the experience was flawless. The communication was seamless & prompt. Sally arrived on time & had booked us a very comfortable tour van to the DMZ & Omma Poom park in Paju. She was very knowledgeable about Korean history & facts. She answered every question we had to prepare us for an amazing experience. She planned the entire day and it was the highlight of our trip in Korea! As a Korean adoptee, our first stop was to the Omma Poom park in Paju. It was a special visit to walk around and see the sculptures & dedication to Koran adoptees worldwide. Plus, I got to experience it with two of my best friends. We all agreed it was a very memorable part of the day. After we continued on to the DMZ tour. It was quite the experience to get so close and to be able to view at the observation deck. Sally was attentive, encouraging and very thoughtful throughout the tour. She had a lot of history knowledge and shared so much information about Korean history. We would highly recommend booking a tour with Sally. Next visit, we will book with her again!

It was truly an honor to spend the day with you and your friends. Seeing Omma Poom Park through your eyes as a Korean adoptee made the visit especially meaningful for me as well. Thank you for your thoughtful questions, and wonderful company throughout the day. It was a pleasure sharing Korean history, culture, and the DMZ experience with all of you. Moments like these are why I love what I do. :D I’m grateful that I could be a small part of your journey back to Korea and help create meaningful memories with your friends. Thank you once again for your trust, kindness, and support. Wishing you all the very best until we meet again! Warm regards, Sally

“A solo day in Seoul- Sally made this easy, fun & special! ”
I had an amazing time with Sally. I just told her a couple of things I wanted to do and she created an itinerary for me. I was able to make a couple of changes leading up to the day and she was completely accommodating. We travelled on the subway ( my request) and got to see so many things, lotte tower, starfield library and mall, Seongsu-dong and so many other places full of culture, sculptures and technology. We also went shopping for souvenirs and beauty products like masks. I was on a short time frame and there would be no way I could have navigated this myself. She was lovely and friendly and very knowledgeable. She also helped some friends I knew who were going to somewhere else get started on their journey and help them navigate the public system which I appreciated. She returned me back to the airport and helped me repack a bag as I may have purchased more than I intended. She found me some very good value shops. We managed to fit in more than I thought and she got us to where we needed to on time. I would highly recommend Sally for a solo traveller or group.

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and detailed review. I truly had an amazing time with you as well! I was only able to do all of that because you made the day feel comfortable and enjoyable! You were incredibly easy and fun to tour with, which made everything go smoothly. Thank you as well for your kindness and patience throughout the day. By the end of the tour, I honestly felt more like spending time with a friend than work. :D

“Perfect and well organized”
The tour was very interesting and very well organised. Sally shared a wealth of knowledge on every topic and was very keen to hear any questions we had. Her English was clear and easy to understand. I would definitely recommend it.

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.
