My reviews

Andrew was knowledgeable about the city and catered the entire experience to me. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to anyone visiting Seoul.

Our recent trip to Seoul South Korea was made extra special by booking a private tour with City Unscripted. Because we had a limited time to see the highlights of Seoul, we chose to do a tour focusing on Art and Food. We were fortunate enough to be paired with our guide Andrew. It is always refreshing to be paired with a guide who is both knowledgeable and engaging. Andrew had a keen sense of what we wanted to see and exactly how best to navigate the city with the tight schedule we had to keep. With Andrew as our guide and mentor, we learned many important details about how to get around the city, where to see the best Art, and best of all, where to find the best food in the marketplaces. I highly recommend the Private tour of Seoul and I strongly advise you to ask for Andrew as your guide, you won't be disappointed. Andrew speaks multiple languages fluently and made everything a breeze. We hope to return to Seoul again soon and we look forward to seeing our friend Andrew for another adventure in the city. Joseph

Andrew's english is impeccable - as he studied in the US. What sets him and this tour apart, however, are the hidden gems Andrew shares and shows you. Absolutely loved the chicken omakase restaurant!!

Andrew planned the 6 hour walk based on my interests and showed the best sights of Seoul. Although we visited a lot of places in short amount of time but it never felt rushed. His explanation was clear and always ensure I was taken care of. I would definitely come back for another tour with Andrew when I am in Seoul!
