Best Tour in Korea - This was our favourite tour in Korea across all our travels. Kim was an amazing guide and took us up a mountain 20mins from Seoul to a monk temple. We asked Kim for an easy climb just right for our beginner level and he delivered. The monks invited us for lunch and the temple had an amazing view of Seoul city. Kim has a great understanding of the local flora and fauna and was teaching us all about it. Must do activity for every Seoul holiday no matter your hiking capacity.

10/10 Views - Great hike and great company - highly recommend Andy, knowledgeable about the area/Korea, would 10/10 do again! You will feel it the next day so recommend doing at the beginning of your trip, or have a relatively easy next day itinerary - Melody

Great guide! - My guide Kim was terrific! As a solo female traveler, I wanted to have a hiking buddy and we had a great day hiking up the mountain. He was extremely knowledgeable about Korea and I wish I had him as my guide for the rest of my trip!

Amazing tour! - Hike was steep but the feeling of getting to the top was amazing. Your guide was amazing helpful and great with any questions we had. Lunch afterwards was great as well. Winter hike was sooo cold but honestly the snow made the whole thing magical.

Spectacular - We had a wonderful time hiking up the Gugi trail to Samobawi rock. Mr. Jimmy was our hiking guide and after a short discussion he suggested this trail. The views at the Seunggasa temple was simply amazing!! There were no crowds and you can hike at your pace. Jimmy was a great guide and you can trust him to find a suitable trail for you. There are many trails in Bukhansan. Thank you Mr. Jimmy. It was fun hiking and having the gimbap lunch up in the mountains.

Get out thereafter be with nature - Mr. Jimmy Nam was excellent! He suggested the trails we should take based on our desires and physical agility. I was a wonderful morning and afternoon hiking then lunch. If you have the opportunity for a private hike, I recommend. With group hikes you are at the mercy of the best hiker or the slowest hiker.

Great mountain hike with mountain expert Kim! - We had our mountain hike with Kim. It was all very great and we ended up with a great view of the mountains and Seoul. Although we went the easier way as Beginners and did not go up the 836m high mountain but he found a great solution for us. It was all very nice and personable. Thank you Kim!

A must excursion for avid hikers visiting Seoul - Kim was a very personable guide on our hike yesterday! He let us go at our own pace and the views were definitely spectacular. Highly recommended for those who seek a little adventure in Seoul and for avid hikers. Also recommend wearing proper hiking attire (hiking gloves) and bringing trekking poles as this may make the hike a little easier.
