Ben is one of the nicest people I have met in South Korea! Our tour went the following way: I suggested an itinerary before we met, and Ben considered it in detail and gave his suggestions, so at the end it was just perfect! We started off with the main attractions - a brief stay at Gyeongbokgung Palace, in order to understand why it is important (I am staying in Seoul for a couple of months so visiting it was not a priority at that point for me). Then we moved on to the city gates, before heading to a couple of markets where we had some gimbap for breakfast. The conversations we had were very nice and Ben is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to languages and language structure. He's more than fit to be a teacher! All in all, perfect! Thank you once moreExcellent personalized tour of Seoul with Yujin. Friendly and professional experience. We walked through Ihwa Mural Village, Bukchon, Insadong area. Yujin is a wonderful host.
