We had a great time on this tour. Hun was outstanding as our tour guide. He described our various options for the tour and tailored it to our interests. Hun was very energetic, personable and has a great sense of humor. Van is very clean and comfortable too. We had a great day and would highly recommend.

I could not have had more enjoyable introduction to Seoul than with Hun. It is my first trip to Seoul and I wanted to cover a number of culturally significant sights. I am very glad I booked with Awesome Tours. Hun was a very considerate guide and host. He was able to adapt to the changing weather as well as indulge my request for countless coffee stops. I thoroughly enjoy our conversations about the history of Seoul and as well the culture of modern Korea.

Han was great! I was surprised that he was by himself, doing the driving and giving the tour and it was just one on one. I am disabled and had an electric wheelchair. I bought the lightest model I could find ( just 41 lbs without batteries), but it was still pretty heavy and a little cumbersome. Han was a trouper lifting it in and out of the van and helping me go over a lot of bumps. His English was excellent and he was a really good conversationalist and well informed. He also called ahead to certain venues (like the Namsan Tower cable car) to see how long the line was and took the initiative to ask if we could go first, and they allowed us to skip the line. We went to a local spot for lunch and it was not expensive and delicious. I appreciated being able to go to a spot where locals eat ( You know it's good if the locals eat there!). He adjusted the tour to take me to locations that were wheelchair accessible. Overall, I would say that this tour was definitely worth every penny and I would do it again. I'm not very good at loading pictures or I would show you some, but the Hanbok rental and hair braiding was so much fun. Definitely do it if you come. Thanks so much for the great day Han! Two thumbs up!!!

Our trip to Seoul wouldn't have been as epic without the amazing Kyung Hun Lee. He showed us all around the city that's filled with so much history like old friends while taking photos for us at each stop making sure not one moment went undocumented. Highly recommend him if you want your own unforgettable experience when visiting Seoul.

Hun is nothing short of amazing! As a private tour guide, he goes above and beyond to ensure an unforgettable experience for his guests. Whether you’re exploring Seoul for the first time or returning for another visit, Hun’s personalised approach will make you feel like a local while being pampered. Even before arriving in Seoul, Hun collaborates with us to create a customised itinerary. He takes care of every detail, ensuring that your preferences and interests are seamlessly woven into the tour. Hun’s knowledge of Seoul is impressive. He effortlessly shares fascinating insights about each location we visited. From the historic Gyeongbokgung Palace to the charming Bukchon Hanok Village, Hun’s wealth of information enhances the entire experience. When we explored in traditional hanbok attire, Hun even carried my daughter’s backpack—because who wants to spoil the hanbok look with a backpack? And yes, he knows at least six names of the flowers around the Palace (inside joke!). Hun took us to a Michelin-starred restaurant where we savoured the tastiest Korean ginseng chicken. After lunch, he even made sure we had time to stop off at a skin care shop since I had lost my cosmetics bag! By the end of the day, he felt more like a friend than a tour guide. We must not forget to mention that we travelled around in a new, clean van which provided ample space and efficient air conditioning. Hun ensured we stayed cool even on hot days. His excellent driving skills made us feel secure throughout the journey. We’re already looking forward to our next trip to Seoul with Hun as our guide! Thank you, Hun, for making our first trip to Seoul so memorable.

We don’t typically go on organized tours when we travel. We usually take more of an organic approach when we visit new places. So it was a last minute whim when I booked an all day tour of Seoul with Sean. We are very glad we did. He was so kind, down to earth, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. All the reviews are truly legitimate. We just followed his lead, and he gave us a nice overview of the city that flowed at a great pace. He really seemed to be in touch with our vibe at all times during the tour, I honestly think he is so empathetic he could and would customize the pace and experience for anyone in his care. The van was exceptional (air conditioned with bottles of water), and Sean was a really good driver. His food recommendations were stellar. The city was lovely. Can’t stress enough how fantastic a guide Sean is. 🫰🥰😄 My husband I both really liked him very much, and we feel like we made a new friend. Highly recommend!
