Our trip to South Korea was amazing and KimKim did an excellent job helping us curate our vacation to meet our wish to experience the culture and history of the country. Our guide in Seoul, Jones, made some extra suggestions as he got to know us and our interest in K-pop and K-dramas. Both Jones and Jay gave excellent restaurant recommendations. We loved the cooking class with Sarah. Christine responded to our questions in a timely manner and made sure we had the information we needed.
