I had the time of my life and was so thankful to be picked up and dropped off at my hotel and to be driven around. I was having so much trouble with the metro so this put ease into my trip. Mr. Bergen took me to every point on my list like the Hanok Village, Gwangjong Palace, Insadong, a Kpop and drama exhibition, and to the local market. I don't think I would have been able to navigate the market without his help so I was thoroughly satisfied with the tour!
