Top Seoul Private Sightseeing Tours

Highly recommend this tour with Yuni! She went above and beyond to make our tour truly memorable. In addition to customizing the tour based on the sites we wanted to see, she also took us to several additional places and helped us with shopping. At the end of the tour, she noticed that we had so many shopping bags. She dropped us off at dinner and then went the extra mile by delivering all of our shopping bags to our hotel for us! Yuni is very knowledgeable and did a wonderful job sharing Korean culture and history with us. She took great care of us throughout the entire tour, and we had a wonderful time. We highly recommend Yuni and would love to tour with her again!

Jun was our guide for one introductory day in Seoul! We learned so much as we wanted information on restaurants, street food, markets, museums, and public transit. We love walking and walked almost most 8 miles! Jun took us to his favorite local chicken soup spot and we loved it. He also had the wisdom to get us to the main Palace early to tour before the crowds and see the early changing of the guards. He was informative, personable and fun! Thank you Jun!

Yunee the guide was so polite and nice , she exolain aniut the sites with alot of knowladge , she help us with all of our requstes . I higjly recommand her tour.

A very professionally organized and conducted tour of Seoul. A friendly and helpfully guide. Thanks for a great day!

We had a family of six ranging from 11 to 68. We also added a one day trip to Gyeongju. Both our tour guides were thoughtful and considerate of each person’s needs in our group.Our Gyeongju trip was amazing and our guide Dongmin was able to educate us on the history, understanding Buddhism and architecture which was very helpful when we toured Seoul later. He took us to a delicious Ssambap lunch which was very filling. He actually spent more time with our group in order to give a ride personally back to the train station despite us telling him we had planned to catch a taxi as our train left well after our scheduled tour. There’s no way we could have seen everything we wanted without taking this tour. Gyeonju is so spread out but so beautiful!For our Korean Culture & Heritage Tour it was a little hot so we’re thankful that we didn’t have to do all that walking and exploring on our own! Our guide Sean took us to a Michelin star restaurant for their delicious Samgye-tang (Ginseng Chicken soup) and provided much appreciated dinner suggestions and timeframes to be aware of for our dinner out. Changdeokgung Palace was beautiful and we were able to explore the Secret Garden. Sean was also very kind and thoughtful in guiding us to some delicious treats and best shopping areas without overpaying as we explored multiple markets. I am not sure if we would have been able to find some of the spots in Ikseondong without him! Just wish we had more time to try so many of the places recommended but it only means we need to come back to Korea.

This tour was like living a kdrama dream, must do it during spring or fall when the weather is nicer.

Rossi was a very kind and generous tour guide. In addition to showing us the important sites, he took us to his favorite cafe where he introduced us to a refreshing omija berry beverage, and showed us his recommended spots in the Gwangjang Market.

Our private tour with Jin was absolutely fantastic. Jin was excellent at telling all about Seoul & showing us sights we could also return too. We never felt rushed and could ask any questions & Jin could answer them.

Mr Kim was a very knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide with excellent English, who was happy to provide insights into Korean culture as well as the places we visited, which we found to be very interesting. While being great company he also had many details to offer on the itinerary, especially the Garden of Morning Calm. We totally say Five Stars!

Wonderful day tour of Seoul. From palaces, temples to the Market. Our tour guide, Michael gave such a good view into the life of South Koreans and their history and culture. He took us to his favorite restaurant for Ginseng Black Chicken and it was wonderful. From directing us to the best shopping places to the crazy items sold in the market this trip met all of our expectations. My wife and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Seoul.

We started and ended our South Korea tour in Seoul with Kory, and he was exceptional. Courteous, thoughtful, and genuinely enjoyable to be around, he made an excellent itinerary feel personal. His stories about his family’s experiences in Korea over the past 100 years brought the country’s history to life and became one of the highlights of our entire trip. Worth every penny.

When I tell you this experience was a 10 out of 10…I mean it! Foreigner friendly I promise. Our tour guide Jake was the absolute best. So friendly and kind hearted. From the beginning to the end he was informative and communicated greatly. Took his time to ensure we had great photos and would offer to take them for us. Also answered any questions we had about the history of the city or general questions. There wasn’t one question Jake wasn’t able to answer. Unfortunately, during one of the walks I slightly rolled my ankle. Jake was so quick to assist me with finding the nearest convenience store. He helped to translate with the staff about my slight injury and they advised what I needed. Within 5 mins of me hurting my ankle I was all patched up. Jake bandaged my ankle with a cold patch and wrap and we were able to continue the tour. I had to move a lot slower to refrain from making my slight injury into a serious one. Jake would walk with me slowly and found me places to sit while he continued to explain to me the history of the sites we were visiting. I never felt rushed and I still got to experience the tour. I highly recommend this private tour to foreigners if your a bit nervous about exploring the city on your own. Jake was fluent in English and Korean which made it so much easier. Thanks again Jake for making this tour a memory that I will keep for a lifetime! ☺️

We had a wonderful day with our guide Song. She was very knowledgeable, energetic and it was extremely well organised.

I am handicapped with scooter and crutches traveling with my wife (who is not handicapped). Joe from "This is Korea" went out of way to make our stay pleasant and memorable. He helped me axtensevly. the company supplied a van which was high and extremely difficult to climb. He even rented a sadan from his own pocket to make it easier for me. There not enough words to praise him for what he did. Daniel Shachar Israel.

You choose where to go. Nami island, petite france and/or garden of morning calm. We didn't want to go to petite france, since we're here for the asian experience . Andy was the perfect guide: intrligrnt, knowledable, caring and attentive to your needs, stayed away when we needed to be on our own, be present when needed. Locations are beatifull for nature contact! We keave our hearts in South Korea!

We had a great time with Benny our tour guide. We like its itinerary. It does not require leave too early nor would come back too late. Benny also share the same sentiment of avoiding traffic by all means. He is well educated and professional, and always willing to help.The island is small but so well crafted. Being an Asian-American also helps to further enjoy the place since we know some of its history.End of March may not be the best season to visit a garden. But we appreciate the “Morning Calm”.Overall, we had a great time.
