Perfect Full-Day Seoul Tour for Families (Highly Recommended!) - I just realized this review was sitting in my drafts for years—better late than never! We booked this tour directly with the operator and communicated via email, which was very straightforward and they were responsive. From the start, everything felt well-organized and easy to coordinate. We opted for a full-day private tour in Seoul, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Matt, truly wore many hats—he was our driver, tour guide, and even our photographer. He was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the places we visited, and his conversational English made everything easy to understand and enjoyable. One unexpected perk was traveling in a comfortable passenger van, which honestly made us feel like K-drama celebrities (maybe I’ve been watching too many 😄). It made getting around the city efficient and relaxing, especially since we were traveling with a mixed group that included seniors and small children. The itinerary included popular spots around Seoul, but what really stood out was the flexibility. We took our time at each stop without feeling rushed, and Matt was very accommodating when we made a same-day request to visit the Korean Folk Village. He adjusted the schedule without any issues, and we’re so glad he did—the live cultural performances there ended up being one of the most memorable parts of our day. Another thoughtful touch was the hotel pick-up and drop-off, which made logistics seamless for our group. And to top it off, Matt took photos throughout the tour and sent us a full album just a few days after we returned home. That was such a nice surprise and a great way to relive the experience. Overall, this was a well-paced, personalized, and memorable tour that worked perfectly for our group’s needs. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Seoul, especially families or groups looking for a flexible and comfortable way to explore the city.

Stress-Free Korea Trip Thanks to Joe and ThisisKorea - ThisisKorea tours are extremely well organized and reliable. When we experienced unexpected flight cancellations and had to completely rework our schedule, their team was incredibly responsive and supportive. They worked closely with us to revise the itinerary, replacing our entire Jeju Island segment with Busan, and ultimately made the trip possible despite the challenges. For the Seoul portion, Joe was an exceptional guide in every sense. His professionalism truly stood out—calm, attentive, and always one step ahead. What impressed us most was how he made it possible for our elderly family members with mobility challenges to experience places that would have otherwise been difficult, if not impossible, to access. He seamlessly navigated crowds, carefully managed the pace of the group, and constantly adjusted the flow of the tour to ensure everyone was comfortable. Despite the complexity of traveling with both elderly parents and young children, Joe made everything feel effortless and well-coordinated. Beyond that, he was personable and easy to connect with, always punctual, and genuinely invested in making sure we had the best possible experience. His ability to balance logistics, care, and a warm personality is rare, and it made a lasting impression on our entire family. Highly recommend both ThisisKorea and Joe for anyone looking for a thoughtful, exceptionally well-run, and stress-free trip in Korea.

Couldn’t have asked for a better guide! - Yuni was our guide today. She was absolutely wonderful! She was very punctual and kept us informed at all times. She shared a lot of South Korea’s history with us and specific details of each place we visited. We were a family of 7 (ranging from grandparents in their 70s/80s down to children of 7 and 9). Yuni was very accommodating to our needs and planned our day really well where we were able to avoid massive crowds. Everyone of us had a tremendous and memorable day. Thank you Yuni!

A tour to remember - Don was great. Learned so much about my Korean heritage. As an avid watcher of Korean television shows and movies Don’s deep insight into the rich history of Korean culture filled the missing pieces to better appreciate Korea. Thanks Don for a wonderful day.

Awesome private tour w Joe booked via This is Korea - We booked a private tour for 3 days in Seoul via This is Korea. Our tour guide, Joe, is super accommodating. He went above and beyond to make sure we visited all the destinations (plus a few extra stops for shopping) on our list. He also recommended a few local restaurants on our trip for us to try, and everything he recommended was DELICIOUS! He’s extremely punctual and communicates effectively. We had a great time with Joe touring Seoul and Nami Island!

The tours should not offer guides and just send drivers - The places we visited were nice, but the tour offered a guide and she did not go with us anywhere, acted just as a driver We could not find a restaurant we were supposed to go to because she just left us at the market
