Hello everyone! I'm Denny Yu (Kun-yong), and showing foreign visitors my beautiful & dynamic country is my job, and I enjoy doing it! I am 57 years old and hold a tour guide license issued by the Korean government, which I acquired in 1999. I have been working as a tour conductor for over ten years and started my new career as a local English guide for foreign tourists in 2009. I love my guiding job, which has allowed me to meet friends from all over the world and to show you everything about Seoul and Korea. I can offer authentic private tours of Korea that you and your family will cherish for many years. I primarily offer exclusive, tailor-made tours tailored to your specific wishes. Based on what you want to experience while in Korea, mainly focusing on private trips and small groups, we aim to enhance the joy of travel. I can make your vacation here in Korea a memorable and enjoyable occasion. Just count on me to show you the real Korea in a more personal, guided holiday style. Through your own privately guided tour, you can travel freely without the restrictions of being part of a large group. Please don't hesitate to contact me at your convenience if you're seeking a local tour guide. It will be my great pleasure to show you around Korea. Thank you. Sincerely. Acquired a tour guide license issued by the Korean government in 1999. 10 year's experience as local tour guide in Seoul, Korea. I can handle all of your request except illegal act.

Fantastic two days touring with Denny. He’s a real professional, so knowledgeable, kind and considerate. We saw everything on the tour and Denny also manage to fit in additional off the beaten path gems. We also experienced the most delicious Korean food! Highly recommended!!!

Denny was an amazing guide. After picking us up at the cruise ship he made sure that there was not one wasted minute in the day. He was extremely informative and had an outstanding knowledge of the history of South Korea over the centuries. He moulded the tour to what we had asked and when one of the attractions that was in our planned itinerary was closed he immediately had somewhere else to take us. We highly recommend Denny. We could not have packed more into the day and he was highly professional guide.

Denny was the best! So informative and showed us so many places. Super flexible and catered to whatever we decided. Literally walked with us everywhere, sharing the history behind everything we saw. Didn't regret one second! He even brought my daughter korean melon to try and snack on while we drove a ways. Fun filled and packed day!

Denny was very professional. His knowledge of culture, history and the details of locals were very valuable. He was extremely accommodating and helpful. We were very fortunate to have him as our tour guide. We had a wonderful day in Seoul.

Denny was an awesome guide! He went above and beyond to give us the best tour. He had outstanding communication with us as we planned our time in Seoul. We had asked him to pick us up at the Incheon cruise port and give us a full day tour of Seoul. We weren't able to get off the ship until six hours past our planned meeting time due to inclement weather, but he was still there waiting for us when the ship finally docked! In spite of the shortened time for our tour, he managed to pack in as much as possible for us. He gave us extra time beyond what we had scheduled and went out of his way to show us as much of Seoul's highlights as he could in spite of our shortened time with him. His van was very spacious and comfortable. Denny will customize your tour as you wish and was very accommodating to our needs. Absolutely the best guide!

Denny is a very professional and accomplished guide, and our tour was a great success. He was flexible with timing, provided quality transport, excellent English, and has extensive knowledge about the DMZ and Korean history and culture. The authentic Korean (many dished) lunch was delicious and interesting - thanks Denny for selecting the restaurant. We would highly recommend Denny as a guide, and wish him all the best in his chosen career.
