"Thomas is a great guide- a loud laugher who walks fast and has a plan. We really enjoyed our tour with Thomas because he was a friendly guy who was fun to be around and we covered a lot of ground he's a fast Walker and knew where he was going and when we got to a place that was crowded he stood in line and we got to find the nice seats. all these things made it a really top notch tour and we've done these around the world. "

"Chris Lee guided us today through Namdaemun Market and its winding alleys — a sensory journey into the soul of Korean cuisine. Between steaming bowls of broth, mandu, the spicy aroma of tteokbokki, and the savory sizzle of fish cakes (odeng), every step became a small discovery. The experience was seasoned not only with gochugaru and sesame oil, but with his stories — quiet, warm, and full of life. Chris doesn’t just know the best stalls; he knows the people behind them. And perhaps that’s exactly it: this web of encounters, glances, and smiles that, for a moment, makes you part of it. You arrive as a visitor — and are welcomed like an old friend. His introduction to Korean culture felt like a perfectly composed banchan arrangement: diverse, surprising, and served with great attention to detail."

"My tour with Chris was excellent, his knowledge of Korean and world history was extremely impressive and made for a great few hours exploring downtown Seoul. I would highly recommend a tour with him for anyone who wants to learn more about the history and culture of this great place. Knew an excellent spot for traditional Korean tea as well. "

"Juli was an excellent host for our tour. Great conversation, teaching and educating us on Korean history, culture, along with food experiences. Would recommend highly"

"Juli’s food tour was the perfect introduction to Seoul. We arrived hungry and she immediately took care of us. After fortifying us with kimchi dumplings we tried a number of other delicious Korean dishes throughout the market before walking to another market. She also gave us a great orientation to the city and the country. Highly recommend!! "

"Rossi gave a wonderful tour of the fish market, i had a really good time with him and it was all so yummy, would def recommend him to others "

"Juli was a fantastic guide for us on this tour! We covered a lot of fun areas of Seoul and had some street food and some sit down experiences that we never would have found or had the courage to try on our own. So delicious! We also appreciated Juli’s energy, personal touch answering all our questions, and her vibe as an all around pleasant person. Top marks. "

"We had an absolutely fantastic experience on “The 10 Tastings of Seoul: Street Food tour” with Juli. From the start, she was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable, making the tour feel both welcoming and thoughtfully personalized to our food preferences. The experience went far beyond street food, blending local sit-down eateries with hidden gems we never would have discovered on our own, all while enjoying truly authentic Korean dishes. Juli seamlessly wove in fascinating stories and historical context about Seoul and the Hoehyeon–Namdaemun market area, which added real depth and meaning to the tour. She moved the tour along smoothly, and took photos for us. The pacing was energetic but well organized, with walking time between stops that helped balance the many tastings. You truly can’t go wrong with this tour—Juli is a phenomenal guide who makes the experience memorable, engaging, and delicious from start to finish."

"I had a fantastic food tour with Juli in Seoul. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and very open to suggestions and food preferences, which made the experience feel personal and flexible. The tour went beyond street food and included sit-down spots with a great mix of authentic Korean dishes I wouldn’t have found on our own. Along the way, Juli shared valuable insights into both Korean culture and history, making the experience even more meaningful. Well organized and relaxed, this tour was a highlight of my trip and highly recommended."

"Chris was a great guide for our family! You can feel his passion for Korean history from the moment he starts speaking he’s extremely knowledgeable, articulate, and genuinely excited to share his culture. Even with our tight schedule, he made everything feel smooth, interesting, and meaningful. His explanations were clear, engaging, and filled with insights you wouldn’t get from a typical tour. We learned so much and honestly enjoyed every minute with him. He was able to deal with us a little slower as some members of our party wasn’t 100% and we were a bit jet lagged. If you want a guide who is not only highly educated but also warm, enthusiastic, and truly proud of his country, Chris is the perfect choice. We couldn’t recommend him more!"
