Song was very knowledgeable and provided an excellent tour of the palace! We loved our day trip experience and will have to come back to Seoul for a longer stay.
In the short time we had for a layover in Seoul at international airport this was a great experience to see the highlights of this great city. Highly recommend. Would definitely do again.
Mr Song was pleasant, informative, and spoke English well. He was patient and answered all of our questions. He is awesome!
We had a 12 hour layover at Incheon airport. So glad we booked this tour! Our tour guide was knowledgeable and so friendly. We ended up swapping out the market for the Korean war museum.
We had a great time with Moon! Rather than sit in the airport all day during our layover, we were able to experience an extra stop on our vacation with a day tour of Seoul. Moon was easy to understand, shared some history and culture of South Korea, and showed us some great sites. Communication was great as we worked to connect at the airport. Highly recommend!
We had a 1 day layover at Incheon airport. Our guide picked us up at the airport hotel & we toured the Gyeongbokgung Palace, a Hanok village & a little shopping & lunch in Insadong. He shared a lot of information & stories & was very timely in getting us to the airport with our brief timeline.
Our driver Moon was amazing. He cares about showing his country, was on time, and was flexible. We highly recommend this company!
Great way get out of the airport and see parts of the city! Our guide Mr. Moon was very knowledgeable, we learned a lot about the city, history, architecture. Really enjoyed our day. This tour was also very nice because it includes pick up and drop off at airport!
Great way to spend a long layover in Seoul. Song was a great tour guide around the city. He took us all over. Sometimes just dropped us off and told us what to look for sometimes took us around. Gave us a great rec for food. Super fun experience. Great way to get a little glimpse of the city.
Moon was an amazing travel guide. He went at our pace and listened to the groups needs. He spoke excellent English as well! He was very knowledgeable about Korea and all of the places we visited. I would highly recommend this private tour. We loved our layover tour with Moon, we all agreed that we wanted to come back and spend a week traveling.
