We had a wonderful tour. Aside from that, we also had an excellent tour guide, Brian. He is like a walking history book, he will let you know the significance of each location you'll go through. He is also easy to communicate with, and is great in taking pictures as well.

Brian was an exceptional guide. He adjusted the tour seamlessly to suit the weather and somehow kept three teenagers informed and genuinely engaged the whole day. Our family came away with a richer understanding of everyday life in Korea - its current affairs, ancient history, warfare, cultural arts and architecture. The vehicle was spotless, the lunch choice spot-on and his commentary struck exactly the right balance. A highly recommended experience for visitors.

We had an incredible full-day private tour with Brian Jeong and can’t recommend him enough. He was knowledgeable, organized, and so flexible- especially with my parents, which I appreciated more than anything. Brian tailored the day to our pace, added thoughtful stops, and shared so much history and insight that we never would’ve experienced on our own. If you’re visiting Seoul, book the private full-day tour and request Brian. It made the entire day seamless, meaningful, and absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!

Brian was an awesome guide for our tour. He took us to a historic palace, a beautiful temples, and lively market streets, all at a relaxed pace. We stopped for photo ops and we got a few nice shots in! The included lunch was delicious and authentic - loved hearing what he would eat just with his friends. Conversation was lovely! it felt like exploring with a local friend. Perfect one day in Korea!

Brian is a very knowledgeable guide. Efficient but flexible to attend to our request. We are able to cover places around Seoul efficiently including direct experience with local communities in Seoul. I had a chance to purchase my own signature stamp :). And strolling around Insadong was very fulfilling.

Touring Seoul with Brian was fantastic! His vehicle was super comfortable and his driving felt very safe, which was a relief since my dad and I both have mobility issues. Brian was thoughtful, accommodating, and made the day feel effortless. He shared so many interesting insights about Korean culture and history. We started at Namsan Tower and rode the cable car, then explored Insadong and the beautiful Jogyesa Temple, followed by a delicious bulgogi lunch. Afterward, we visited the charming Bukchon Hanok Village, the giant statue of King Sejong, and Gyeongbokgung Palace, where we enjoyed the stunning changing of the guards ceremony. It truly felt like touring Seoul with a knowledgeable friend—comfortable, fun, and memorable. Highly recommend Brian!
