Outstanding tour. Jessica... - Outstanding tour. Jessica is a great tour guide and was incredibly knowledgeable. The content of the tour was excellent and is a side of Korea that most probably don't realize exists let alone be so prevalent

Getting below the surface - A very interesting tour that got below the surface of life in Korea. Very eye opening for my teen children. Jessica was a fantastic host who had time for lots of questions. It gave us a very different perspective on our holiday.

Recommended - Jessica was a great guide. Having lived in both South Korea and US she could explain a lot of differences between the different cultures. I only wish the tour was longer as the experience was enjoyable :)

For Real Insights into Korea, Take This Tour! - Jessica was quite an amazing guide. We covered the "less spoken" about parts of Korea and it was truly insightful. Great tour that is unique in it gives you more insights into the challenges Korean youths and people face in the country. Highly recommended!
