My first time to South Korea and it was without knowing anything about it, just joined along with my cousin for a vacation doing a 10 day Private Tour. It ended up being an absolutely amazing trip and tour. I have over a thousand pictures but they can never replace the actual physical experience of being immersed into such beautiful culture and people. Clover, out tour guide for Jeju Island set the standard high for any tour guide. She was very knowledgeable, friendly and thoughtful. A genuine human connection where we all spoke about so much more than just the places visiting but about life and experiences. Without a doubt if you are going to Jeju Island she is the guide to be requested. Jones, was our second tour guide for Busan to Seoul doing a cross country drive with major stops in between. He was also a great guide, knowledgeable and engaging. I was amazed about all I had seen and learned during this trip. I arrived being uninformed about South Korea and I left with some knowledge but most importantly a thirst to learn more about the history of South Korea. I would be remiss if I did not say something about the Korean food, that is an experience by itself. Both Clover and Jones took us to various small family owned restaurants and every time my taste buds were amazed and my belly full. The food was phenomenal and always fresh, in my own ratings nothing was less than a 7 out of 10. Never once in 10 days was there a meal I did not enjoy. Come with an open mind for various Korean foods that will be top tier.

It has been over a month since I returned from my trip to South Korea, yet the wonderful memories remain fresh in my mind. Being in my late 60s and having physical challenges, I was both excited and anxious—excited because I had heard so much about South Korea, but anxious about the many steps and hills I might encounter. Nevertheless, I did not allow these concerns to prevent me from embarking on the 19-hour flight and my 10-day private tour. After spending a day relaxing at my hotel in Seoul, the tour organiser arranged a hotel pickup, making the journey to the airport and my onward flight to Jeju Island effortless. Upon my arrival, I was met by Clover, who would be my guide for the next two days. Clover knew exactly where we should stand to capture the best photographs, and she introduced us to some of the finest places to eat. Listening to her carefully explain the history and significance of each location was like travelling back in time. Her knowledge, warmth and enthusiasm made my visit to Jeju truly memorable. I then flew to Busan, where I met Jones, who would be my tour guide for the next 8 days touring South Korea's many attractions. “Attentive while going above and beyond” is the best way to describe him. Whenever he dropped us off at a hotel, he remained in the reception area until he was satisfied that we had a smooth check-in. Jones provided detailed historical information about every location we visited, Jeonju Hakok village, Gamcheon cultural village, Nami Island, Gyeongbokgung Palace, N Seoul Tower and DMZ, to name a few. Whenever possible, he also helped me find alternative routes—slopes, lifts instead of steps—so that I could comfortably reach each destination. As Korean cuisine was included for lunch, he even assisted with cutting / the various meats and mixing the ingredients, ensuring that we fully enjoyed each meal. South Korea is a beautiful country with exceptional food; there is no doubt about that; however, the warmth, knowledge, attentiveness and professionalism of Clover, Jones and Alicia (the tour manager hard at work behind the scene) added the perfect finishing touch to an already unforgettable experience. I am deeply grateful to them for making my journey so enjoyable, comfortable and memorable. Best Tour Ever!!!

We had an absolutely wonderful time touring South Korea with June. He is professional, kind, and incredibly insightful. His passion for her country shines through in everything he does, and he made sure we felt comfortable and well-cared for throughout the entire tour. If you want a guide who is organized, friendly, and truly knows his stuff, June is the one to call.

We had a two-week tour in Korea, including the DMZ, Seoul, Andong, Gyeongju, Tongdosa Temple, Busan (with Gamcheon), and Jeju Island. The itinerary was initially suggested with the help of AI and then organized and implemented with the support of Here Korea Travel. Although the same tour could probably be done in 10 days, we chose a slower pace. In retrospect, this was a good decision, as it allowed us to enjoy the places without feeling rushed, even if at times the schedule felt a bit relaxed. Overall, the support we received from Here Korea Travel was very good. Communication was generally smooth, and the team was responsive when needed. Special thanks to Harry (the manager) and June (who handled the arrangements). A very special mention goes to Alicia, who was always there for us — not just responsive, but genuinely caring and reassuring whenever we needed help. That kind of support makes a real difference when you are traveling far from home. The guides they work with were also very good — Namin in the Seoul area, Bada in Gyeongju and Busan, and Mr. Choi in Jeju Island. Beyond their professionalism, what we appreciated most was their warmth, patience, and the way they brought each place to life with their stories and local insights. In Gyeongju, we had a mixed experience. While the location of Lahan Select Hotel is beautiful, we found the atmosphere rather cold and not very welcoming, so this might be an area for improvement. On the other hand, one of our most memorable moments happened there: we visited the ancient tombs in heavy rain, which at first seemed unfortunate, but turned into something special — we were practically alone in the park, just us and our guide, walking with umbrellas among the mounds. It felt surprisingly intimate and unique. All in all, it was a well-organized and memorable trip. We would definitely recommend Here Korea Travel to anyone planning a similar journey in Korea.

Without a doubt, the BEST TOUR and BEST TOUR GUIDES I could've ever ask for or got. My elderly mother and I did this tour, and had an amazing time. Everything we were hoping to do and more. I highly recommend!
