Our tour and transfer with Benny was great! He is very professional, good communication and informative. We were able to see the highlights of Seoul and had a great lunch stop. I would highly recommend any tour with Benny.

Hello. Wonderful travelers! I am Benny. Looking for a guide with the knowledge of unique cafes, traditional restaurants, history museums, panoramic observation decks, and historical architectures? If so, you hit the spot. Benny is here for you. I had majored in law in Univ. and had worked for about 10 years in a Bank before becoming a Tourist Guide. So, if you are interested in such a topic, I can tell you in-depth about Korean politics and economy. Korea has made remarkable progress in a short period of time. Aren't you curious about the secret of the fast development? If you're a huge fan of K-drama or K-pop, don't hesitate to ask where the drama or music video was filmed. I would also like to recommend K-dramas or movies that best explain Korea's past. I believe that tourist attractions have their true meaning when accompanied by a story. There are many different tours to the same tourist attraction. However, if you look at the reviews, you can find very different reactions. I think that the most valuable result depends on how much background the guide knows and how well he connects it to the attraction. My tour, as you know, is a private tour. You are the only traveler/travelers on the tour. Unlike group tours where many people go together at the same time, you don't have to look around other travelers in your group to ask your guide questions. Regarding my English, I had been dispatched to the US Army in Korea from the Korean Army (or KATUSA, Korean Augmentation Troops to U. S. Army) for about 2 years. Don't miss the great chance to meet a memorable guide! 1. Korean Tourist Guide(English speaking) License : issued by KTO (Korea Tourism Organization) 2. Korean Tour Conductor(English speaking) License : issued by KATA (Korea Association of Travel Agents) 3. Working-level training for Tourist Guide : trained by KOTGA(Korea Tourist Guide Association) 4. TESOL Certificate (Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages) trained and issued by Hankuk Univ. of Foreign Studies. I will not do 'Anything illegal' in South Korea. Other than that, I will do my best to help my travelers.

Benny was excellent in all ways. Over 30+ years we have done a lot of international travel hiring various tour guides and Benny is among the best we have ever had the pleasure of touring with. Benny had thoughtful itineraries but also was very flexible to change them based on our personal interests. Whether it was taking us to the DMZ or walking us through a large market in Seoul taking us to his favorite food stalls Benny is very knowledgeable and was fun to spend two days with. Benny has a very nice van and made our trip fun, meaningful and memorable.

Benny was a fantastic guide! He was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a pleasure spending the day touring with him. We would definitely use him again and would recommend him to anyone considering his services.
