Joe is wonderful! We did a 2 day private tour of Seoul with Joe, and we thought he was wonderful! He knows all the best places to go, and he makes everything so fun. He keeps the tour flexible, so you can add or skip things as you like. We’re so glad that he was our guide, and we highly recommend him!

Guide made my trip Enjoyable. Our Guide Jay Park is proficient in English. He is knowledgeable. The coordinator Ray Oh communicated via whatsap to confirm my itinerary and quote. He then linked me to our licensed guide cum driver. He picked us at airport, checked in hotel, proceeded with city tour to the palaces. To view Buchong, eat Korean food and meongdong and DDP. It was a day well spent. Highly recommend

We had a fabulous day with Joe as our tour guide! We had a wonderful day in Seoul with Joe as our tour guide. He filled the day with highlights from the Changing of the Guard at Gyeongbokgung Palace to Isadong St and Gwangjang Market. Joe organised a traditional Sth Korean lunch which was delicious and then happily extended our tour because our cruise ship was late docking, so he took us to an amazing lookout over Seoul. Nothing was too much trouble for this tremendous fellow!

Excellent job!! This is Korea tour company is absolutely great to deal with. Communication with them was very fluid from start to finish. They helped me with a major change in my booking. Thank you!!!As for the guide/driver, I could not ask for a better one!! This young man, Andy did everything he could to please us. Our disembarkation time was delayed due to the fog and Andy was there for me reassuring that everything will be okay. He waited patiently and met us with a big smile on his face!! The 2 day tours were excellent. Andy offered a lot of wonderful information about Nami Island and about South Korea as a whole. He's very professional and very smart. As an added bonus, he offered to be our photographer. That was a pleasant surprise. For sure, this company will be highly recommended. Thank you Andy! I give you a 10 and to This is Korea Tour Company, you have great people working for you!!

Great service and flexibility We did a custom version of this tour with Joe and really enjoyed it! He was very hospitable and gave us a nice souvenir for us to remember Korea.

Best winter ever! Mr Kevin was our tourguide for 3 days during our stay in Korea. He was well organized, was on time and very professional. I will recommend him as tourguide in Korea. 5 stars for him. We had so much time during our vacation.

10/10 - Best experience ever thanks to Joe! If you’re thinking about booking this private tour, you MUST. First time visiting Soeul, and we had Joe as our driver, and he truly made our day a special one to remember. Constantly going out of his way to give us the best experience possible. Great recommendations for activities and food spots, amazing photographer that always knew where the best photo spots were, and the friendliest guide we have ever had. We were able to fit into our day the activities we had requested, as well as more! Please if you’re coming for a visit book this and request Joe, was such a great and fun day that everyone should experience.

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!

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.

정말 멋진 경험이었어요. 이곳을 선택한 게 행운이에요.

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!!!!!

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!

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!

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

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!!!

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!

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!
