Best tour guide in Korea
maricrisc2023, 05-01-2023
Andrew made a special itinerary for my son who loves BTS. He took us to places where a bit tricky to find on your own. He gave us extra hot packs to keep us warm during our mini Hanbok photoshoot, which we greatly appreciated. We highly recommend Andrew's services if you're considering hiring the best tour guide and photographer!
Lovely Day in Seoul

Booking the tour was easy and they helped us customized our itinerary. The tour itself was lovely , Thomas our guide was very friendly and took amazing photos! He knew all the best places to see and shared some interesting stories as well. Thank you very much for making the last day of our first trip to Korea memorable :)
Quick thinking, great customisation

I was with Kuro. I told him what I wanted to see which was outside of what was originally planned. Thanks to his quick thinking, he was able to shift things around and add a stop specifically for be while still being able to fit what was originally planned. 5/5!
Perfect experience

I traveled with Andrew in Seoul for 5 days, has been a wonderful experience. Always on time, polite, inghtful. We were not an easy group, we had a wheelchair and 3 kids among us, but Andrew found a way to make everyone happy. The car is clean and can accommodate 11 guests. Very happy about my choice
