Short yet memorable - In a short period of time, Alice explained the background, showed us the historical places and different culture. We exhausted but had a good time!

Wonderful day trip to... - Wonderful day trip to Seoul! I let Alice know what I was interested and she took me to the following places: Namdaemun Market → Gyeongbokgung Palace → Insadong → Bukchon Hanok Village. I appreciated her reaching out to me in advance to plan everything. Being that I had limited time (12 hour layover) she helped me see as much as I could in a short amount of time. She was very helpful with helping me find souvenirs I was looking for and would help me ask a salesperson for specific items. Taking me from location to location was really efficient so I could maximize my time. Alice also gave me background information about the history of the palace and Korea in general. Enjoyed a honey seed hotteok snack and beef bulgogi for lunch. Also, had a chance to see a couple of galleries and really enjoyed the artwork.

Alice is the best! - Alice is an excellent guide! Not only was she available for a very last minute tour request, but she enthusiastically and expertly helped us make the most of our limited layover in Seoul. The palace, a temple, shopping district and best of all - a local, out of the way restaurant for an authentic Korean dining experience. 10 out of 10 highly recommend a tour with Alice!

Alice is the Best - personalized experience - Alice provides an incredible tour that is completely customized to your unique needs and experience. She had everything planned perfectly and took me to the exact shops that met my needs as well as historic sites and the most lovely tea house. She shared her own personal story that was inspiring.

Korean Cosmetics Purchase and Historical Tour - My guide, Alice was both knowledgeable and very accommodating. I wanted to see some historical structures, but Korea is also known for cosmetics. Alice was able to create an itinerary that allowed for both in the allotted time. My husband and I were able to learn about the people of South Korea, eat some Bulgogi Beef, purchase souvenirs, and purchase cosmetics. Alice was very conscientious of the time, which was extremely important as we did not want to miss our flight. I would highly recommend this tour.

I booked travel tickets... - I booked travel tickets with a 12hr layover in S. Korea since my partner has never been. This tour was a great way to experience a few highlights of S. Korea with a knowledgeable guide. Tour was approximately 8hrs and we made it back to the airport with plenty of time to spare. I enjoyed the tour and would book again

South Korea Lay Over - Alice was wonderful. She reached out and communicated via what’s app days prior to my trip - so I felt safe that she was picking me up. She was very friendly and modified the tour according to my interests. I feel like I got a solid glimpse of Seoul during the 8 hour layover.

Perfect Tour of Seoul with Nari - I had an amazing, “layover tour,” of Seoul Korea! I decided to book due to a 10 hour stop in South Korea and my Tour Guide Nari was the perfect host. Nari was waiting for me and drove me to tour Seoul for the day. It was important for me to experience Korean culture and Nari did not disappoint. Would highly recommend this tour and hopefully Nari will be your Guide! She spoke perfect English and from the start of the tour began to educate me on Korean culture. I will be back and look forward to seeing the rest of Korea…with Nari of course!

Awesome sights with a wealth of knowledge! - Nari did an absolutely fantastic job! From the very beginning, she reached out to me to ask what I was interested in, and she crafted the day perfectly around my preferences. Her enthusiasm and deep knowledge of her country's history added so much joy to the tour. I got to explore some fascinating sights while also soaking up a wealth of information! It was an unforgettable experience, and I left with a big smile on my face!

Happy Nari 😊 - It’s a one on one tour which was perfect for me due to time constraints. My tour guide Nari was an excellent guide, keeping in mind my limited time in her wonderful city. I experienced a lot of touristy things and learned as well about Korean culture, local food included.
