Jackie the Storyteller was a delight and had the best storytelling when delivering his service. he had a great sense of humour and all my questions about North Korea had been answered by the end of his in depth tour. I loved it and I think it was great value for my money !!
Just now New Our DMZ Tour is fantastic. Our tour guide, Jackie the Storyteller, is so knowledgeable and fun. He made our tour so informative and gave us a glimpse of the North and South Korea conflict. The hope of unification between North Korea and South Korea is still every Korean's dream. Thank you, Jackie, for taking us on an unforgettable and interesting experience. Highly recommended!! Thumbs up to you, Sir Jackie.
Jackie was a great guide! He was very friendly, approachable, funny, and knowledgeable about the topic. I’ve been to the war museum before, but learning about it firsthand from Jackie and Ms. Lee enriched that experience. Overall good tour, would recommend :)
Our DMZ tour with Mr. Han was an unforgettable highlight of our Korea trip. Having a North Korean defector as our guide provided a deeply personal and rare perspective that you simply can't get from a textbook. Mr. Han was insightful, engaging, and open, making the history feel truly alive. It was an educational and emotional journey that we highly recommend to anyone visiting Seoul. 10/10!
It was such a good tour! Our Tourguide, Jackie the storyteller, informed us really well about the war and every stop that we made. He answered all the questions and was always helpful. I would highly recommend this tour!
The tour was great. Totally recommended, Jackie the storyteller explanations were super detailed and rich in details. He is a really fun guy and we enjoyed the tour and his explanations. The suspension bridge was amazing too with Patrick, also his explanations were really thorough and complete. If you want to experience the DMZ and the bridge, this is your tour.
The tour was very interesting. Our guide, Jackie the Storyteller, told us the history of what we would be seeing along the way to give us some context for what we would be visiting. If you come to Korea, take this tour and you will feel like you are part of the history.
It’s the first day of November, and we toured the DMZ of the Republic of South Korea under the Travel Tour Agency, with Mr. Jackie, the storyteller, as our well-versed tour guide. We had a small issue at first since there was no communication from the management prior to the scheduled day — I even had to contact Klook for assistance. But moreover, everything went well afterwards. We truly enjoyed the trip — not only was it educational with Mr. Jackie as our historian, but it was also an exciting and fun-filled experience. Our whole family is already looking forward for another Korean vacation in the future. God bless us all!
Han our tour guide did an exemplary job! He knows the history of South and North Korea, giving so much informations! He speaks english very well too. Helpful and friendly to tourists 🥰Their bus has a better leg room compare to a normal bus perfect for tall people.
Our tour guide, Jackie “The Storyteller,” was amazing. He reminded us the night before and on the day to be on time. Even though we were a bit late, he coordinated with our Uber driver so we could catch the bus without delaying the tour. His effort and care made the experience smooth and memorable. Overall, the tour was excellent. Jackie’s professionalism and care made it memorable and enjoyable. ✨✨✨✨✨
