We had such a great experience with KimKim! Everything was planned well and the guides/drivers/experiences chosen were perfectly curated to what we wanted to do on our trip. The trip was seamless and went so smooth thanks to the planning that they did and the accommodations they chose were in great locations for both Seoul and Busan. We will be recommending KimKim to all our friends planning to travel abroad!

G2 Hotel Myeongdong
Seoul

We really enjoyed the location of this hotel! Though not quite as nice as the other one we stayed in on our visit (L7 in Busan) in terms of amenities and general quality of rooms, we still really enjoyed our stay.

We had such a great day with Jun! He had the whole day planned out perfectly and we got to see so much without feeling like it was too packed. We couldn't have asked for a better guide, he gave us a lot of fun details about everywhere we visited and answered any questions we had! We were so happy with this tour!!

Luke was the best tour guide ever! We had such an amazing couple days with him - when it was rainy he suggested a different indoor activity at an art museum and it was the perfect alternative to being outside in the rain. He was so friendly and knowledgeable. We couldn't have asked for a better guide!

Our second day with Luke was amazing! He showed us so much of what Busan had to offer and even adjusted our schedule to see some new things that weren't on the itinerary because we had already explored some on our own. He showed us some of the best food we had on our trip. We could not recommend a tour with Luke more!
