Full-day Customizable Private Seoul Highlight Tour

Amazing private tour with Song! She knew all the important highlights to share with us and the best times to avoid the crowds and the best routes to take to appreciate all the highlights of the tour. We were very fortunate to have such a thorough and insightful tour!

Guide – Christine Lee and Young, From the initial booking, follow up emails and tour planning our guide Christine and husband Young have been nothing short than excellent in their respective roles as expert guide and driver. Our tour and the service they provided exceeded our expectations especially due to the day being Celsius 33 degree +, wonderful restaurant for local cuisine, additional stop at Myeongdong Street market and further information and directions for using local subway. We are so glad to have meet Christine and Young and enjoyed the time spent in their company and would have no problem highly recommending doing a tour of Seoul with them. Both Dianne and myself felt completely at easy and had a great time in Seoul thanks to their expertise. 감사합니다 Thank you. Dianne and Sandy Allan

Extremely pleasant experience. The guide was knowledgeable about the city and Korean history. I had a good time.

We are a family of 6 (kids age range from 17-24) and had an excellent guide in Jun for 4.5 days straight in Seoul and to Nami Island. I would highly recommend Jun (especially for local food recommendations) and would absolutely hire him again if we come back to Korea. Jun listened to what we wanted to do and updated our original itinerary schedule to minimize travel time and maximize what we wanted to do (not an easy task with 4 kids all wanting to do and see different things). He always showed up promptly to pick us up and was very flexible. He took us to the best Korean BBQ I have ever eaten and to a number of local restaurants (most with no/very little tourists) that made us feel like we were getting a real taste of Korean cuisine. He was a great photographer with the iPhone and took great family pictures of us. He also knew how to avoid and navigate the crowds at the crowded tourist spots. I genuinely enjoyed having conversations with him about Korea life and how it is different (& similar) in the US. Five stars for Jun!

We could not have had a better guide than Christine. The heat in Seoul and our struggle with it meant that throughout the day she suggested adjustments to the schedule for us. Her suggestions were always good and demonstrated the benefit of having a private rather than group tour. If you are booking a private tour you will be very lucky to have Christine as your guide with her husband as the driver.

As we had only four days to explore Seoul, we needed to find a tour that showcased the city’s highlights on one of those days. Booking was a breeze, as it always is with Viator, and the company was incredibly responsive. A few days before our guide, Song, arrived, she reached out to gather our input on any specific sights we wanted to see. I mentioned that we had only one day to make the most of our visit, and she crafted an impeccable itinerary! We spent an incredible day with Song in a clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned luxury minivan, taking in as much as we could. Song was not only informative and entertaining but also incredibly pleasant to be around.!

We had an amazing experience on this private guided tour in Seoul! This was actually our second time booking this tour, and it was just as wonderful as we remembered. Our guide Sophia Kim was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the day so enjoyable. She shared fascinating history, local recommendations, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire tour including cold water since it was a very hot day. Even though we’d been before, we still learned new things and had such a memorable experience. The personalized attention and flexibility of a private tour really make all the difference. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Seoul, whether it’s your first trip or you’re returning like we did. Thank you for another fantastic day Sophia and we can’t wait to come back again!

We enjoyed everything about our experience - the points of interest, the convenience of having a private tour, and most especially, our guide Jung! She was what made the entire tour more fun due to her personality and she was well-informed. I was also most grateful for her attentiveness to one of our group members who is elderly and used a walker to get around. Jung made sure to ensure he was comfortable, could get around and even spent rest stops with him to keep him company while the rest of the group spent time shopping. Jung is an asset to your company and I would recommend her to anyone interested in booking with your company. Great job!

Song is a wonderful tour guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable about Korean history and the sites that we were seeing. She brought us to a Buddhist temple that we had not initially put on our itinerary, but was absolutely beautiful and magical. The tour was entirely flexible and we were able to see the sites that mattered to us. It was really nice having a bus where we could leave our stuff and come back to without having to worry about getting a taxi. The biggest highlight, though was Song.

Excellent service and first-class treatment from the Guide Hera.. highly recommended!!
