Hello I am Imseong and you can call me Chris. Thank you for visiting my beautiful country. I used to teach Korean history and geography to teenagers. A few years ago, I had a chance to visit Australia and I got a lot of questions about Korea from people in various countries. I wanted to let them know not just an abstract saying of my country being beautiful but also its rich history. That is why I decided to become a tour guide, and studied to get the license. Since then, it has been over 9 years of working as a tour guide. So far I have met hundreds of people from various nationalities. I found out that I like meeting new people and having a conversation with them, sharing the experience of our daily life, history and abundant traditional culture as well. How much have you heard about Korea? There is a Korean proverb, "Better to see it once, than hear about it a hundred times. " But I can tell you "Better to see and hear than to see only' Pun on your questions, wants and needs including local daily life experience. All tours are customized and I will accompany you to bring fun and excitement to the destination of your choosing.

This was the second tour that we went on with Chris- both tours were amazing. Chris is a wealth of knowledge regarding Korean history and culture; she also has a great personality and sense of humor, which made the tours all more fun. I highly recommend her services.
Chris gave us an amazing, fun and informative day in Seoul with an insight to Korean history, culture and food. She brought us to the places in Seoul that interested us, and the day flew by. We highly recommend Chris for any walking tour. Just let Chris know what your interests are and she will make it happen. Sheena and Philip May 2025
We had an awesome two day tour with Chris. It was our first time in Korea and the we wanted an introduction and orientation, plus we each had our specific interests. Chris delivered and more: she showed us all the must-go places, was attuned to our preferences and interests, made good recommendations, was flexible and could swivel with hiccups such as sudden downpours and traffic. We loved Chris' ability to bring stones and monuments to life through stories: they are so intriguing we ended up learning so much history with such enjoyment (!!) Not only did we learn and see so much on this tour, we had a blast. Chris is very fun company. Her English is excellent, by the way; it is impossible to banter with one's foreign guests unless one is fluent in their language. We highly recommend doing this tour with Chris.
Guide picked us up from airport as we had a short layover. Interesting and fun walking tour after arriving in city center.
Imseong was a great tour guide! She was able to adapt the tour to the places that interested me, as well as taking extra time to show me around. She was very knowledgeable about the history of South Korea and its historical places. I thoroughly enjoyed the local lunch and snacks along the way too.
Chris was a very wonderful tour guide! She was able to bring us to the highlights of Seoul City and very knowledgeable about each tour spot. She was able to work with our schedule. We are a big group with kids elderly but she handled our group really well! She was also very accommodating to our requests so we appreciated that a lot. She also helped us arranged a private transportation for our group and recommended a very nice traditional restaurant for lunch! We enjoyed our time with her. Thank you Chris!
