Kevin organized this day around my interests in seeing traditional Korean culture and crafts. We spent about half the day touring a fascinating open air folk museum with old farm houses that had been relocated from all over Korea. We then went to a town that specializes in pottery, both traditional styles and modern pieces. I wanted to ship my purchases home because I had 3 weeks of travel ahead of me. That took some complex negotiations with the shops which Kevin handled with great skill.

Thank you very much Kevin for a wonderful and unforgettable first experience in Seoul. It was great to learn about your wonderful country's rich heritage, sights, food and shopping etc! We greatly appreciate your patience, warmth hospitality and humour. Kevin is an awesome guide and great with kids. We will be back and definitely would like you to show us around again. See you soon Kevin! Thanks a lot for going the extra mile, always with a cheery smile. We were lucky to finally see and experience snow :)

Kevin H. was an excellent guide for us throughout the whole 3 day tour. He was a pleasant and polite gentleman to travel with. Especially, I was extremely impressed with his knowledge of Korean history and culture. He absolutely enriched our understanding of Korea. Gyeongju was our favorite place out of all the cities we have visited in Korea. Everyone needs to visit Gyeongju to understand Korea. We were very happy with Kevin and highly recommend him.
