Paul was very knowledgeable and gave a very good foundation of Korean history and culture to build on for the rest of our stay in South Korea.

We had a wonderful time and tour with Thomas for our day in Seoul. It was a wet day and Thomas made it much more enjoyable with close drop offs in a private car to main sites and also provided umbrellas. As an added bonus he gave us a bunch of professional pictures to remember our tour. Highly recommend!

Our 1/2 day with Jiwan has been the highlight of our trip to Seoul .. we opted for a more Unstructured tour (myself and my 11 year old son) so we could go where the mood took us .. Jiwan was so knowledgeable, so friendly and my son was so sad when the tour finished :). We had street food, market shopping (Jiwan had even researched what my son might like to buy), help to navigate the metro, we really had a great time and would highly recommend Jiwan to anyone wanting a friendly knowledgeable tour guide (and his english was great as well!).

Andrew gave us a great tour. He picked us up at the hotel (private tour) and took us to many local highlights. He spoke English very well. Luckily, he had extra metro cards for the 2 of us to use, which was a nice detail. I highly recommend him and would use him again. He also took great photos!!

This half-day tour that my family went on with Thomas of City Unscripted in Seoul was such a gem. We're blessed to have him showing us around with amazing photography shots and culture and history. It's like professional tour guide and photographer all in one. We took away with us not only beautiful memories of Seoul but also phenomenal pictures to relish. Highly recommended.
