Bill was a great tour guide. He picked us up from our cruise ship and we toured Incheon. He drove us to fish market, China Town, Japanese Town and underground shopping. Then we enjoyed a local S Korean lunch at a small family restaurant - we chose fish which was delicious. Bill shared with us how S Koreans eat their meals and the sauce for the fish had a slight kick but tasted delicious. After lunch we visited a Temple and then a recently developed park area called Central Park. Bill explained the significance of the Temple. It was a sun drenched day and walking around the park was enjoyable. Bill shared information about S Korean life.

We had a great tour with Bill. He arranged two cars for the six of us so we could bring our luggage. Both Bill and his son arranged a fun filled day including a Korean barbecue. We wished we had more time in Seoul

Outstanding tour guide. Tried every hard to meet our interests with the amount of time we had in Korea. He also went out of his way to adjust the itinerary for the weather. Very happy with our experience.

Bill was so thoughful and patient. Our ship delayed the docking more than 3 hours and he waited for us, plan the best schedule for the time we had left and was allways willing to help and answer all our questions. We cover most of the Jeju Island in a couple hours, manage to try local food and had the best donnuts of our life! Definitely a grea t experience.

Above and beyond tour guide. Took us all around the unesco world heritage sites in Gyeonju and introduced us to some traditional foods that were healthy and delicious. Excellent tour and we’ll be using him again when we come back to Korea.

I booked a one day tour with Bill and found him to be knowledgeable and a lot of fun. I had already visited many locations in Seoul earlier in my journey so he did his best to show me sites that I had not seen. We combined site seeing with a bit of a foodie tour and it was great. I am especially thankful to him for helping me score a ticket for the baseball game! Thanks Bill for a great day.
