We had a wonderful experience with TourStory, thanks to our amazing and beautiful tour guide, Seon-mi (善美)! Seon-mi was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing Korean history and culture. Throughout the tour, she shared plenty of interesting fun facts, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. She was also very attentive to our needs and made sure my elderly parents were comfortable throughout the tour. Her Mandarin Chinese was superb, and she explained everything so clearly and thoroughly that we learnt so much more than we would have exploring these attractions on our own. Suwon Hwaseong Fortress was absolutely beautiful, with its stunning scenery and fascinating history, while the Korean Folk Village was incredibly informative. Seon-mi’s engaging explanations really brought these places to life! Overall, it was a fantastic and memorable experience with TourStory. thank you Seon-mi (善美)!

Xiao Luo is a professional tour guide who drives very carefully. His service attitude is warm and attentive. He patiently responds to all the needs raised by tourists and takes care of every detail impeccably. Not only does he make the trip fun and worry-free, but he also leaves an extremely deep and wonderful impression of this journey. Highly recommended!

This was a very good tour. Not too early from Myeongdong St. (8:30). The amount of walking was perfect, plus you get a short rest on the bus between stops. Each stop was timed well with an adequate amount of time and information shared. Our guide Simon was personable and a good story teller -- thank you for sharing Korean history with us, very fascinating. Plus the itinerary made for a well balanced trip -- historical sites, shopping and leisure, and unique with the Cave visit. Very much recommend to anyone who wants to make the most of their time in Seoul.

Jeff did a fantastic job with showing us around. It sometimes felt a bit rushed as we had quite the fast pace but without it we might not have seen it all. Also this allowed us to have often some free time to take pictures, buy souvenirs or so. All in all also very happy with the locations and attractions this tour covered.

Dong was a nice driver. The trip became private due to the other group not showing up. Hwadam is nice for strolling. the library was impressive.

The driver was very responsible, the seats were comfortable and spacious, and we arrived safely. Since we were the only family that day, with no other guests, we were able to leave earlier or later, or continue playing as we wished.

Alex and Jina are fantastic hosts!! I had the wonderful experience of booking this two-day tour, and it is completely worth it. I had so much time and it left me with a great impression of Jeju. I would come back to Jeju anytime ❤️🫰🏼

Seoul City Tour Review: The tour was a great experience and featured some of Seoul’s top attractions. From start to finish, the tour had a dedicated group and a knowledgeable guide who spoke English throughout, which made everything easy to follow. A lower rating on value for money only due to a discrepancy in klook vs other booking sites; I found to be charged almost double the price compared to some who had used tripadvisor; no fault of the tour operators, more so my own for not doing more research—everything about the tour itself ran well, and the team delivered a solid, fairly well-organized day given the 8hr itinerary. A special shout-out goes to Hanki/Eugene, who was great at his job. He stayed upbeat and helpful despite the very hot weather, and his professionalism made the tour better. Overall, I’d recommend the tour for anyone wanting to see major Seoul highlights with a friendly, English-speaking guide. just make sure to compare all options for the best value ;)
