About the operator
- ANJ197600The best experienceTravelled with Here Korea. Vincent was super cool. Very knowledgeable, well prepared, friendly and also guided us in timely manner. Allowed us to roam free whenever possible, and was a part time photographer as well. He knows around freely. Specious high roof Van was super clean, safe and more than enough for small group. Highly recommend Vincent and the tour group.
- Isabel S00Good tourVincent is a great guide. Polite, good with timing and lots of knowledge. Appreciated being in a smaller group / mini bus rather than the large coach tours we saw there.
- Global61432000Incredible DMZ tour and tourguideThis tour was comprehensive, historical and moving. Vincent is very knowledgeable and funny and explained each element and stop of the tour in detail. We were given ample notice about what was coming next and Vincent gave us options and advice at each stop. The tour itself stopped at all the major sights and Vincent adjusted it at times to meet our needs. I highly recommend this small group tour with Vincent and the DMZ.
- polop66600Amazing jeju private tourOur tour guide, Ji Young, was absolutely amazimg. We had a fantastic time! So worth to do the private tours!!!r
- madnikki00Must do in SeoulDMZ is a must visit when visiting Seoul. The operator runs small groups which I find preferable. They were also great at communicating, contacting us prior to the tour to confirm the meetup point and even messaging me on the day when they were on the way and they were punctual. Our guide, Vincent, was very knowledgeable and made the whole day run smoothly. It ended at Gwangjang market where Vincent gave us local tips of what to try and where to go. Highly recommend a DMZ visit with this operator.
- KyoungSoo00Perfect weather with a great driver/guideIt's challenging for the guide to lead a lot of people given the official DMZ tour process set by military. Harry was really great to entertain 10 people from various countries (solo travellers and family). Also we were fortunate to have perfect weather so was able to see the North clearly.
- NursalinaB00Great tour guide for our customised Halal tourHere Korea Travel are great for providing Halal tour. I just dm them and they send me the list of itinerary of the tours and which restaurant for halal lunch & dinner. Our tour guide, Vincent are very friendly and patience. I’m very fascinated with Vincent explaining the history and the fact of the places. If I go on vacation to Seoul in the future, I definitely will take this tour again. I had a great time in Seoul.
- limajt9127900A Fun Day Outside SeoulWe thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The highlight of our experience was the Rail Park in a rural part of Korea and the lunch at Jomoorak, known for its grilled chicken. Our guide, Sophia, was communicative and knowledgeable. She arrived early to pick us up and safely returned us to our hotel. If you’re looking to venture out of Seoul for the day, I’d recommend booking this excursion.
- Guan Lye C00Excellent day around Gyeongju — past and presentWe signed up for the full day “Gyeongju UNESCO Heritage Private Tour: A Glimpse into Silla”. Our guide (Sang Yong) was excellent. He had great local knowledge and had good English skills. Sang was able to provide a commentary about local Korean society as well as info about the UNESCO sites we visited. In our opinion this was more informative for us about how present Korea has been shaped by the historical events and artefacts we were looking at. Lunch and coffee/rest breaks were also informative — about Korean customs and developing local food/drink trends. We would recommend Sang for the more discerning traveller seeking more than just pretty sights to look at.
- Sophia Y00Wonderful family trip!Our tour guide of the day was Vincent. He was on time to pick us up at the hotel in the morning and showed up at the agreed pick-up spot prior the agreed time during the day of the trip. It was raining on the day of the trip, and Vincent is very nice and considerate to help holding the umbrella for my father when he is taking out his. He even helped holding the folded stroller when we are taking our son to see the palace. As our 3 year old is not a history fan, Vincent has taken us to a place where kids would love and my son did enjoy it a lot. Vincent has profound knowledge about the history/culture and provided detail information about the place we visited.He drove as back to the hotel on time so that my husband can catch his meeting in that afternoon on time. Thanks Vincent for taking care of us on that day! If you are looking for a trip that is care free and learning the life/history/culture in Korea, this is the tour for you!
- lindseypI2389AX00Amazing First Trip to Jeju!We had an absolutely wonderful time exploring the East Course with JY! She was so sweet, funny, and welcoming - she made us feel right at home. We loved learning about Jeju culture, eating delicious black pork and dried squid, and walking the cypress forest and numerous Jeju UNESCO sites. We had such a lovely experience that we are already looking forward to returning to Jeju in the future - and seeing JY again!
- Englishguy4900Excellent private DMZ tourWe did a private DMZ tour with Here Korea Travel with a trip to the Odusan Observatory. We were really pleased that we chose a private rather than a group tour as it meant that we had a personal pick up from our hotel in Seoul and were able to tailor the tour to our interests. Even though we had to use the official DMZ shuttle buses when we were in the DMZ our excellent guide Vincent stayed with us and gave us excellent commentary and insight. I would highly recommend this tour and also our tour guide Vincent.
- Kirk Patrich P00Seoul Tour by Energetic HarryThis tour was amazing, we used an excellent tour van that is so nice. Harry toured us and was very energetic, yet time-bounded. He has good story-telling that motivated us to explore. The suggested spots for photos were also properly suggested that we got great photos and videos. Will come back again in autumn
- Fs9200Private tour with Here Korea TravelHere Korea travel were amazing, we reached out and booked a bespoke private 4 day tour with AC van and tour guide. We also had airport pick up and drops offs. None of it could have been easier or higher quality. We travelled with an 11 month baby and our tour guide Lee made everything easy and seamless. Really thoughtful and considerate from finding restaurants with high chairs to supermarkets with nappies. This enabled us to be much more adventurous without any worries. The things we saw in Seoul, DMZ, Nami Island, Sokcho, Mt Seorak were all lovely and really exceeded expectations. Would highly recommend both this tour company and Lee.
- 323oskarsk00Perfect tour!We had a really nice tour with our tour guide Lee. He was very informative and pleasant to talk. Everything was perfect! Tour was very interesting, food was very tasty and the car we were driving was very spacious and comfortable. Definitely would recommend!

Ji Young from Here Korea Travel is an outstanding guide. She is very caring, going beyond expectation and always enthusiastic.
We are so grateful for her exceptional service to us, making our tour of Jeju memorable in spite of the rain the last day.
We are very satisfied of Here Korea Travel’s excellent services.

We were a group of 15 travelers with age ranging from 7 to 70+. This was the first time we travel in such a huge group but fortunately we had Vincent Hur as our tour guide. Mind you, we were not a bunch of tourist that is easy to handle as many of us have different requests and last minute changes. Vincent took it in his stride to try and satisfy all of them. He gave us different suggestions and options and was willing to take the extra efforts to make sure everyone had a great time. It was all thanks to Vincent that our vacation turn out to be extremely smooth and everyone had a fantastic time. In fact, Vincent was so good that he became best friend with one of the kids. If I am to make another trip to Korea, I will without a doubt look for Vincent again.
