I recently went on a tour led by Michael, with Mr. Che as our driver, and I wanted to share my experience.
At first, I found Michael's demeanor a bit rough, but that quickly changed as the tour progressed. He proved to be incredibly knowledgeable about the area, sharing fascinating facts and stories that kept us engaged. His sense of humor added a delightful touch, making the journey enjoyable for everyone.
One of the highlights of the tour was our visit to the frozen lake, which was breathtaking. To our surprise, we encountered llamas there! It was an unexpected and delightful addition that made the experience even more memorable.
We also got to taste Korean strawberries, which are truly special! They melt in your mouth with an incredible flavor, adding a delicious touch to our adventure.
Overall, I would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun and informative adventure. Thank you, Michael and Mr. Che, for a fantastic day!

Due to my lateness to join the tour, I end up doing my own Gyeongbokgung tour and only joined my tour guide, Chloe on Hanok and the rest of the tours. Despite that, I have a great time and Chloe guided the rest of the participants with passion and enlighten us with great knowledge of Korean history.

The whole thing is a combination of handsome men and beautiful women. The driver is a handsome Korean guy. Although he doesn't understand Chinese, it's pleasing to the eye. The Chinese tour guide is a beautiful woman with a good temperament. She is humorous and has a sweet smile. The friendly attitude of the two people makes people feel very good. It is really comfortable to ride in the car with the cool breeze on summer nights. You can see the scenery that you don't usually notice during the whole trip. The car will play very exciting music during the driving process. When you meet pedestrians and hear the driver ring the bell, everyone will wave and say hello to the passers-by. Some people will respond enthusiastically, and some people will show a look of surprise. Later, the Chinese tour guide also buried a little surprise for shy people to experience the Korean enthusiasm, which made me feel ashamed. Those who have not experienced it can try it well!

It was a very fun and enjoyable afternoon!! Yoon and Joon were our guides, and they were incredible!!! Super friendly, attentive, they explained everything to us and answered all our questions. We followed their recommendations and tried a lot of food in the market. They explained how to eat it and some traditions. It's worth it. Afterward, they took us to Naksam, and we took a very beautiful walk with lovely views. The last place has beautiful views of the river. A highly recommended tour.

Highly recommended, especially for family with kids. You can create your own itinerary depending on where in Seoul you want to visit. Our driver was very helpful and attentive, he even recommended to us a restaurant that serves delicious traditional Korean samgyetang for lunch.

Rachel is an outstanding tour guide. The explanation of Dae Jang Geum Park, a filming location for Korean dramas, was very thorough. She showed us scenes from the drama on her phone while explaining, which made those scenes come alive, and we had a great time. Her energy and passion for BTS, the music and culture was exemplary. It was such a dream to visit the places where BTS spent time in the past, in Seoul. The various spots were far apart, so it was so convenient going with Rachel, drive captain Jung Jin and the tour van. She suggested spots to take picture, took different angles of the pose. We nicknamed her, our director. It was a day of fun with Rachel as our guide. Very memorable indeed.

An amazing experience walking the grounds of Gyeongbokgung Palace and the surround Bukchon Hanok village. It is a lot of walking so be prepared with good shoes. The weather was nice and cool so it wasn't too bad. We got to see the King's and Queen's quarters and also the changing of the guard parade. Best of all was our guide, Stella, who was informative, kind and sweet throughout. She helped us get tickets, explained different aspects of the palace to us, and even shops to get good skincare products at! It was topped off with her bright demeanour and cute Christmas present. Keep up the amazing work Stella and thank you for an amazing tour!

Despite my lateness to join the group, sorry about that :-( Lucy waited for me to arrive then only conducting the group official tour. Great trip overall and I learned a lot about korean history and korea food culture from her.
