Amazing trip to South Korea

My husband and I just returned from an amazing two-week trip around South Korea, and having Andrew Chung Hanbyul as our guide and driver made all the difference. We traveled through Seoul, Busan, and many smaller towns and villages that we never would have found on our own. Andrew's knowledge of Korean history, culture, traditions, and everyday life added so much to the trip. He always had interesting stories to share and was happy to answer all of our questions. What we appreciated most was how much he genuinely cared about making sure we had the best experience possible. He was flexible, patient, and always looking for ways to tailor the trip to our interests. It never felt like he was just following an itinerary—he wanted us to experience the real Korea. Andrew also introduced us to some fantastic local restaurants, coffee shops, and dessert cafés that became some of our favorite memories from the trip. Those little recommendations made a big difference and gave us experiences we probably would have missed otherwise. Everything was well organized, which meant we could simply relax and enjoy each day. Whether we were exploring busy cities, visiting historic sites, or driving through the countryside, Andrew made the entire trip easy, enjoyable, and stress-free. We can't recommend Andrew highly enough. He was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to travel with. Thanks to him, this was one of the best vacations we've ever had, and if we return to South Korea, we wouldn't hesitate to book another tour with him.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your truly heartfelt and touching review! It was an absolute pleasure showing you and your husband around South Korea, from the energetic cities to the quiet, scenic countryside. Your curiosity, warm smiles, and enthusiasm made every single day enjoyable for me as well—it really felt like I was traveling with great friends! Thank you again for your trust and kind words. Whenever you decide to visit Korea again, you know you always have a friend waiting here! Wishing you both all the best and safe travels wherever you go next.

Great Tour of Seoul with Andrew Chung

We had a wonderful tour with our guide Andrew. He took us to Gyeongbokgung Palace, Hanok Village, a wonderfull hillside cafe, and DDP Plaza. He also recommended a great mandoo restaurant for lunch. His English was excellent, and we enjoyed our conversation with him. Transportation in his air-conditioned vehicle was great. On top of that he took really great family photos as he said he has prior professional photographer experience. My family I would definitely book with Andrew in the future!

Operator response

Thank you for leaving a wonderful review for me!! It was such a great time to be with you on that day!! I wish you all the best, and see you again some day!! :-)

Andrew Chung the best tour guide ever!

If you’re traveling to Korea, I can’t recommend our guide Andrew Chung enough. We explored Seoul with four kids, and he was beyond accommodating, patient, and genuinely kind. He gave us an incredible tour and showed us authentic spots we never would’ve found on our own. Some of our favorite moments were walking the streets, soaking in the real vibe of the city together as a family. When it was time to leave, we were honestly sad to move on with our trip. He connected so naturally with our kids even our 1-year-old was saying “Andrew” by the end (one of his first words!). That says everything. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and will elevate your experience, Andrew is the one. Highly recommend!

Operator response

Thank you so much for leaving a wonderful review for Andrew!! I am glad you had a wonderful time with him!! It was so incredible to hear that your adorable baby called his name!!

Best Tour Guide Experience Ever!

Our family spent four wonderful days in Korea with Andrew as our guide. He handled everything smoothly — airport pickup, transportation, and a personalized itinerary that included the DMZ, Nami Island, the Lantern Festival, Eboni Valley, and campus visits to Yonsei University and Korea University for my daughter and niece. Andrew went above and beyond by taking photos for us throughout the trip and making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. His warmth, knowledge, and genuine care made this an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend him to anyone visiting Korea.

Operator response

Thank you!! It was such a pleasure for me to be with you for those days too!! I hope they will have great time in Younsei university. If you need any help or have any questions about Korea, please feel free to contact me!!😊

Great overview of the neighborhoods, history and culture of Seoul

Andrew was very helpful and responsive from the moment of booking. He provided our family of four, with two teenagers, exactly the kind of day we were looking for. He was able to pivot and adjust as the day went on, our priorities changed, and the weather played a role. Safe driver, knowledgeable, and friendly! Would definitely book with him again.

Operator response

Thank you for leaving a wonderful review!! It was actually such a pleasure for me to be with a beautiful family like your group on that day!! I wish you all the best, and see you again someday!! :-)

We thoroughly enjoyed our private van tour with Andrew. He perfectly set us up to watch the changing of the guards, eat Korean Beef BBQ, shop at the largest Korean beauty supply shop, and try Korean pancakes.

Park was a brilliant tour guide!

Park was a brilliant tour guide! He really made our one day in Seoul a lovely experience. He was punctual, flexible and kept communication with us before and throughout the day. He was friendly and accommodated any requests we had. We managed to see everything in Seoul that we wanted to and fitted in some shopping too! Park recommended a vegan restaurant near to Jogyesa temple which was delicious! Would recommend this tour and Park every time!

Operator response

Thank you for letting us know that you had a wonderful time with Park!! Thanks to you, I can recommend his service to other upcoming clients even more!! I wish you all the best!!
