I am a certified tour guide with fluent English, knowledge and enthusiasm to share Korean people's past, present and future. Please join me in exploring Korea from its antiquity to the present! I can arrange chartered van or mini-bus with a driver if you want a private vehicle. I believe this is safer and more fulfilling as you can have my full attention even on the road. For most of walking tours, I go with bus, subway and taxi. I believe the public transportation in Seoul is a must have experience! ************ Tour Guide Experience************ * 2024/May Staff Delegations(CoS) of the House of Representatives invited by Korea Foundation (industrial sites/government agency visits) * 2024/May Samsung VIP customers from MENA (cultural tour/government agency visit) * 2024/Apr Logistics support for an art tour conducted by Limelight/Austrailian tour company (art galleries/cultural tour) * 2023/May Samsung VIP customers from MENA (cultural tour/government agency visit) * 2015 ~ Present Tourguide for cultural and industrial field trip organized KOICA(A governmental agency dedicated to providing grant aid programs of the Korean government) * Shore Excursions - Volendam, Seabourn Sojourn, Millenium, Nautica, Amsterdam, EUROPA (both for the cruiseline agency and private tour) Apr/2019 - Dallas Assembly Seminar & Extension for 60 pax Aug/2017 - SAT1 TV(German TV) Kock Undercover filming tour May/2017 - On-site coordination for one of the client of American Express Meetings & Events Apr/2017 - Vogue Netherland tour organized by KTO, visiting hipster places in Seoul Apr/2017 - Korea Cruise Travel Mart FAM tour organized by KTO(Korea Tourism Org. ) Apr/2016 - Lecture on Korea culture for Hyundai Construction and Engineering Global Talent program from Feb/2016 - Yonsei University Exchange Student culture tour-DMZ Oct/2015 - OECD Ministerial Meeting Daejeon 2015 World Science and Technology VIP Tour May/2015 - 10th International Freight Conference Tour Apr/2015 - World Water Forum Technical Tour * Interpreter Experience - several meetings with North Korean defectors Apr/2017 - Korea Cruise Travel Mart Nov/2015 - Global Infrastructure Cooperation Conference Liaison for the Minister of Ministry of Urban Development and Housing/Ethiopia.

    Jessie was a fabulous tour guide and I'd highly recommend her to anyone! She provided a lot of insight into the culture and history of South Korea. She also accommodated a special request we had to see a particular site in the area due to my son being born there. We had a short 24-hour stop in South Korea and the investment of having Jessie guide us made the process...

    Thank you Jessi. We both enjoyed your tour of Seoul. As you promised, since we had only 1 day in Seoul, you were able to show us a lot. Old, new, religious, traditional and modern parts of town. Using all modes of transport, bus, taxi and a fun subway ride. Thank you for delivering for us. The food was delicious too.
