Helpful and kind Joe was very kind to drive me from Incheon Airport to my destination in Pyeongtaek, with extended stops along the way to walk and talk through the UNESCO site Hwaesong Fortress and the nearby museum about the fortress which is well worth some time. We also stopped for lunch in a small, local spot; lunch was delicious. Joe also, at my request, helped me see up a T money card. A kind and helpful gentleman.

Kevin Went Above and Beyond - Best Guide Ever! Kevin is actually the best guide I’ve ever had. From beginning to end, he was incredible—kind, funny, fun, and extremely accommodating.When my brother unexpectedly got sick during the tour, Kevin immediately stepped in to make sure he was okay and comfortable. We also wanted to change our plans, and Kevin was more than happy to adjust everything for us.We had an unforgettable time with Kevin, and to top it off, he sent us some restaurant recommendations after the tour, which was such a thoughtful gesture.Thanks for an amazing experience, Kevin! You made this trip special!

Korea Seoul experience with Korea Tours lead by Tour Guide Mr Joe. The Tour organised by Korea Tours with our Tour guide Mr Joe was an amazing experience to know about Seoul city tour for 4 days. The proposed visit places as kids friendly and allow us to better understand on the local culture and living style. Mr Joe was an excellent and friendly Tour Guide to understand and undertake the whole welfare of our family members during the journey. He recommended such a nice Korea food for us to experience the Korean cuisine. He was so friendly to approach for any needs during the trip and no hesitation to our request at all time. He has an excellent English command which is very easy and help us to understand and ask questions.

Amazing private tour provider in Seoul! We had a fantastic day visiting the DMZ with Joe, who was super flexible and taught us a lot about Korea, its history and its people.

Korean Culture & DMZ tour, Joe rocks! We had an absolutely amazing experience with Joe as our tour guide. From even the day before the tour began, Joe’s kindness and thoughtfulness stood out. He messaged us on WhatsApp to make sure we were prepared in everything for our journey to the DMZ. He genuinely cared about ensuring we had a memorable experience, and his passion for sharing the beauty and culture of Korea was evident.One of the highlights was his encouragement to try a variety of cultural foods, which added a delicious and authentic touch to our journey. Joe went above and beyond by bringing binoculars for the DMZ visit, which allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience. Of course, his knowledge in sharing information from the DMZ and other historical events was also appreciated. His attention to detail and dedication to our comfort made this tour unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide—Joe truly made our trip special. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and thoughtful guide, Joe is the one. Highly recommend!

Great trip with a wonderful guide, Joe! Our first day in Seoul was very exciting and incredible with the help of our guide, Joe. He's very friendly and caring especially to our teenage daughter and mother, making sure my mom always warm and comfortable. Will definitely looking forward to have more wonderful trip with Joe and the agency.

Wonderful day touring with John from Korea Tours Had a great time with John showing us around. He gave us many suggestions and was very flexible with us. We learned so much from him about South Korea. Highly recommend!

Great experience! We booked the tour for 3 days and had so much fun. Our tour guide Kori was very knowledgable, patient and helpful. We didn't have any problems getting around. Thank you so much, Kori and thisiskoreatours. Hope to visit Korea again soon.

Day trip to DMZ We did a day trip to the DMZ.Joe is great! Very knowledgeable, super accommodating and incredibly nice. He was on time, and continued to communicate with us leading up to our hotel pick up.Ask for Joe, you’ll be glad you did.

One day Guided Tour to Nami and Garden of the Morning Calm Although it was just for one day, Joe had been a wonderful guide to my family. He had been very kind and bought us hand warmer packs making sure to keep us warm. Most importantly, he made sure to bring us to non-spicy restaurants as my elderly mom has a gastric problem and can't have spicy food. Great job Joe and This Is Korea, and special shout out to Harry Hong and Kevin Hong who assisted with all the bookings. Thank you!

Thank you Joe! The tour guide joe is very knowledgeable. Learnt alot from him on this dmz trip. Joe is very attentive to our needs as well.

Beautiful and peaceful Jeju Cindy is the one tour guide you will need and want. She has all the local knowledge that can help with trip updates due to weather, whims and food cravings! We really enjoyed Jeju. Jeju is a beautiful and peaceful place. And even after the first time there, we still think it is necessary to have Cindy as a guide and local friend for our next trips!!

Thank you John for being very accommodating! We had a wonderful Seoul tour and experience with you. Highly recommended!

Did a two day tour of Seoul. Our guide Gwany Hong was excellent. Knew Seoul and its history. Our second day was a BTS tour which was my favorite. He gave great recommendations for food and shopping. We were able to see all the major highlights of the city. Plan on returning to Seoul and will definitely book our same guide. 5 Stars!!!!!

We were lucky to have Lucy for two days as our tour guide in Busan. She was outstanding and shared her knowledge of Busan and its amazing culture. She really connected with our family and was able to engage with my daughters, ages 5 and 7. We had our best meals and desserts with her! Even though we were challenged with the weather, Lucy made sure we had a memorable experience! Thank you, Lucy!

John made our trip such a memorable experience! He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed everything Korea had to offer. Every recommendation was so on point amazing and he was very flexible with any special requests we had. Not to mention how nice and funny he is! We would love to tour with him again in the future. Thank you John!

John picked us up at our hotel and had a well-planned day set out for us, with plenty of stops for food, interesting and notable places, and suggestions for that were interesting for us and for our teenage sons. He engaged each one of us and made every effort to connect amicably, showing genuine interest and encouraged us to try new foods. He is knowledgable, respectful, and friendly and all of those qualities make him an excellent our guide and a wonderful representative of seoul to make tourists feel welcome. Having john as our private tour guide for the day was the perfect way to see the city and access things we would never otherwise have known to see, try, or do. Thank you JOHN!!!

Fantastic day in Busan. Our guide, Lucy, was awesome. She was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her.

Lucy was an amazing guide for our time in Busan! She is very courteous and treated us like her own family. Extremely knowledgeable about the places we visited! When I visit Busan again, I am definitely looking forward to visiting more places with Lucy! Highly recommend her if she is available to show you around!

Our tour guide, John, was the best! Not only did he share so many facts about Korean culture, he was also very accommodating to us. My aunts liked to joke around and ask many questions, and he hopped along with them (us) and was very patient too! Our experience in our dream country destination became extra fun and memorable Thank you, John the Great! Kamsahamnidaaa!

We were very satisfied with This is Korea! Kevin was very responsive during the early communications. Planning and scheduling of the trip were also easy. Our guide, Andy, was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We definitely had a wonderful time during the tours. Highly recommend 👍🏻
