We booked a private day trip with Maie and it was the best day out of our trip in Korea. Maie was professional, considerate and extremely helpful and organized. She planned the whole day accordingly to the schedule that best fit our family and changed it to our liking but kept all the best places as is and we were greatful for that. She organized everything and was very considerate, she would give us time to ourselves then bring the car over to save us time from walking to far. My family loved the day with her and everyone agreed that Maie’s tour was our highlight for Korea. I would highly recommend Maie for anyone looking for a tour guide in Korea. Thank you Maie for a wonderful memory and I’m sending my friend to you in a few months. Lots of love from Canada, Mien
I had an amazing private tour experience with Miae! It was just me on the tour, which made it feel very personal and comfortable. Miae was incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. She made sure everything was well organized and tailored to my pace and interests. I really appreciated how she explained things in detail and made the whole experience so enjoyable. It truly felt like exploring Korea with a friend rather than just a guide. I would highly recommend this tour, especially if you are looking for a more personalized experience. Thank you so much, Miae, for such a wonderful and memorable day! 😊
This is my family’s second tour with Juno and Miae. If there were 10 stars, this family run business absolutely deserves it. Juno’s local knowledge, perspective and HUMOR (a hit with small children, young adults and grandparents alike) and ease of communication and planning with Miae can’t be beat. You will walk away with an incredible understanding and deep appreciation of the people and culture of Korea, all while having the best time. You will want to return asap! Thank you, Juno and Miae, for making this trip so special for my family and me. We will see you again soon!
Miae was a delight to spend the afternoon with. She was knowledgeable, funny, accommodating, helpful to my handicapped husband, & more. One can never really be certain what you are getting when you book these things online. You just click & hope for the best. With this company- you actually do get the best. Miae prides herself on offering quality content and hospitality.
This was an outstanding tour. Every aspect was professional, educational, interesting, easy, spot on for timing and relaxed. As well as good value. Highly recommended. Tour guide Juno was first class.
Our tour guide was wonderful! She was extremely knowledgeable, and made sure we had a very enjoyable day. We got a great overview of Seoul which I would not have easily been able to do without a guide.
We had an unforgettable and wonderful time in Seoul, Gyeongju, Busan, Jeonju and then back in Seoul. Miae, our private tour guide, was very thoughtful, knowledgeable, and understanding. She speaks fluent English. During the trip, we not only enjoyed visiting historical sites, popular cafés, restaurants, and tourist attractions, but also learned a lot about Korean history, culture, and modern-day lifestyle. We also took so many great photos! We hope to visit Korea again soon.
It was a pleasure to have Miae as our guide for a private Seoul city tour. She was very knowledgeable about the sites and knew how to navigate around all the different areas to avoid the crowds. I highly recommend Miae’s service if you are planning a visit to Seoul!
Juno was a great tour guide, taking us all over Seoul and providing helpful commentary on everything we saw. He knew his way around the city, and kept in touch via WhatsApp all the time when he had to park or pick up the van. Our lunch was great, and Juno also recommended a good place for us for dinner. This was the last day of our trip to Japan and Korea and was the perfect finish.
Incredible service from our friendly guide Juno took us to the most interesting places always with simple and concrete explanations... the visit to the border with North Korea I found very interesting. Visiting with Juno also allowed us to learn about the Korean culture, specific incredible kindness always granted us all our requests for visits and purchases that we wanted to make.
