“We had a lovely experience with Elisa in Seoul. We met her at the end of our 15 days trip to Korea and it was very very enriching! :) As communication in english is not always easy and we had so so many questions that we cloudn't get the answers or feel to from guide books or texts. The time we had with Elisa was very enriching. Apart from her historical knowledge we loved to share experiences of everyday routines, troubles and were able to understand in a much deeper sense the Korean culture today.â€

“We spent two days with Rene. He was energetic and incredibly informative. He was able to show us places we never would have found on our own! So worth having a Local Friend.â€
