For our first trip to Seoul and Korea, I knew that our group of 4 needed a guide to give us a "greatest" hit of Seoul. Ho Jin had the most reviews and seem to fit the style that I like for a city tour so I quickly booked him. Ho did not disappoint and delivered what was promised and more! We met Ho at Gwanghwamun Square on a sunny Friday. Ho provided good meeting instructions and was punctual. The tour started at the palace and we were lucky enough to be there during a performance similar to a changing of the guards. Ho bought tickets while we watched the performance and then we were off on the tour. Ho is able to talk with authority about Korea history and the story behind the buildings in the palace. He kept it interesting. After the palace, the tour continued in the surrounding areas. There is quite a bit of walking during the 3 hours so we covered a lot of places. We visited a traditional hanbok village, a Chinese temple that was having a festival with wonderful lanterns hanging, and also jumped on the subway and visited Ipsadong. Ho kept things interesting and tried to give us an expansive tour that really is the greatest hits. In fact, we went back to Ipsadong the next day to do some shopping. It is a good tour and the 3 hours flew by. The pace is relaxed and Ho made sure that we were comfortable throughout. His communication was perfect and he answers all our questions. The tour is a great introduction to Seoul and Korea. I would definitely recommend Ho for the tour! A lot of Seoul packed into 3 hours.

Without a doubt one of my new favorite cities in the world- Seoul! Once I booked the tour, Jason immediately reached out to find out what we were interested, so that he could tailor the perfect day of sights. We were warmly welcomed by Jason at our hotel. He has such a friendly demeanor we had a fantastic day! He was knowledgeable, and very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that he deserves a special thanks for listening to what we were interested. He truly maximized our tour to ensure we were not just going by the main sights, but also secret places for the best pictures. He took us through a lovely part of town that we would have never seen on our own since there were not a lot of tourists there. Jason is such a warm personality and highly motivated guide (100% recommend!). I truly enjoyed walking and taking in the scenery which was beautiful during our time with him. The atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to us. All of our respect for Jason who does a great job, a true sample of excellent tour guide! Even after the tour he sent points of interest and sent us links to help us make the most of this wonderful city. Many thanks again and I recommend Jason to everyone!

I had an outstanding experience with my WithLocals guide in Seoul! Ho Jin led me on two separate tours, and each one was thoughtfully planned, engaging, and full of interesting insights. He shared many practical tips that will, I am sure, enhance the rest of my time in the city. Beyond his knowledge, what truly stood out was his warm and easygoing personality — he made me feel completely at ease from the start. If you're visiting Seoul, don’t miss the chance to explore it with Ho Jin!Amazing tour with an amazing tour guide

Ho Jin was a wonderful guide, it felt like a tour with a good friend! He was so knowledgeable, was equally comfortable in English or Spanish. He was able to answer our questions about history, culture and language. Ho Jin was flexible with our tour when we needed a quick break. Wonderful tour and will definitely recommend him to our friends & family. ¡Gracias Ho Jin! Nos la pasamos súper bien. Excelente guia!

Fue muy dificil encontrar guia en español en Seul, y en la busqueda encontramos withlocals. Si bien se iba un poco de nuestro presupuesto, no nos queríamos ir de la ciudad sin tener una explicación de las cosas que habíamos visto. Cristina no defraudo! Ante mi temor de que su español no fuera el mejor, le pregunte antes de encontrarnos como era su fluidez y me contesto perfecto... asi fue!!! Pasamos 3 horas muy entretenidas descubriendo el centro de Seúl, su cultura y tradiciones. Siempre estuvo pendiente de nuestras necesidades y hasta nos acompaño a una farmacia a comprar medicamentos. Excelente experienciaPerfecto español en Seul

We had the pleasure of having Ho Jin as our tour guide during our trip to Seoul, and he truly made our experience unforgettable! He took us through the many facets of Seoul, from its rich history to its vibrant modern culture, highlighting his personal favorite spots along the way. Ho Jin was incredibly attentive to our interests and made sure we got the most out of every stop. What really stood out was how approachable and engaging he was. We felt comfortable asking him any questions, and he was always happy to answer, providing us with insights that went beyond the typical tour. If you're planning a visit to Seoul, we highly recommend Ho Jin as your tour guide—he will make your trip truly special! Great time in Seoul !

My group really enjoyed our time Priscilla. She was very fun, charismatic, and knowledgeable about the history of South Korea. She was very familiar with the many shrines, statues, temples and artifacts, and she was able to tell the stories of each. Priscilla answered all of our questions and she made great recommendations outside of our tour. I would recommend Priscilla as a guide if you are visiting South Korea.Very Informative

Jin offered to meet us at our hotel. Accommodated our request of going slow, and at times had to stand in the wind and freezing temperature 🥶. Offered interesting in-depth knowledge during the tour. Had great conversations, not only related to the tour but also our individual experiences. Great experience overall. 👍 Great experience

Planear un viaje es abrumador. Muchas opciones. Muchos guías. No sabes qué elegir. Te voy a resolver la vida. Contrata a Ho Jin. Es flexible, educado, alegre; hace el tour a tu medida. Te lleva en su auto. Se preocupa por que conozcas lo mejor. Su inglés es perfecto (estudió en EU) Su español es nativo (creció en Sudamérica) El día con él se pasa volando. En nuestro viaje de 20 días en Asia, el mejor día, sin duda fue con Hi Jun en Seúl. No te equivoques de guía y ya no pierdas tiempo buscando. No busques más

We spent our first two days in Seoul with Songhee. By the time we were done with our food tour we were already planning a return trip ( and we still had 5 more days here!) . When we said good bye she felt like a friend if not family member. Songhee has a lovely casual air about her and lets you set the pace. You don’t feel rushed or limited in any questions or advice. She was also very helpful pre - trip with advice. Simply put because of her we will be back and will want to reconnect ..Kam Sa Hamida!Our new BFF in Korea!

We signed up for a Kickstart to Seoul. Ho Jin showed how to use the subway along with taking us to various parts of town. Afterwards we were amazed how much we covered. He did an excellent job describing what we were seeing. At the end he dropped us off at a small restaurant for gimbap. It was a great way to start our first day in Seoul. Highly recommend.Great tour guide!

Cristina was a great guide. Very informative of the history and culture. She is also flexible at changing plans and pivoting to make sure everyone has a good time, which is a God send with jet lagged kids. She asked my kids lots of questions to get to know them and got them talking to her like a buddy. She is also very efficient! We went to a castle on a national holiday so the lines were long, but she knew how to maneuver our family to get us in quicker. Overall I would highly recommend!Informative and efficient
