We loved our tour with Eva! She was incredibly passionate and kind, and really opened our eyes to the beautiful history of Korea. The tour is also the perfect length, well paced, and emphasized the beauty of the museum. She also had several great recommendations for the rest of our trip — so I highly recommend doing this tour at the start of your trip for the perfect introduction to Korea!

외국 바이어 분들을 모시고 진행하게 되었는데 너무나 만족하셔서 감사한 마음이 큽니다. 적극적이고 유쾌하게 진심을 다해 진행해주셔서 감사드리며, 앞으로도 동일한 기회가 생긴다면 다시 진행하고 싶습니다.

Ein wirklich unglaublich beeindruckendes Museum...war überrascht dass es eine private Tour war. Maya war ein ein ganz wunderbarer Guide und hat uns auf eine sehr persönliche und interaktive Weise Einblicke in die historisch wertvollsten koreanischen Schätze gewährt. Eine wirklich einmalige Erfahrung, vielen Dank!

Eva was wonderful. She is very passionate about Korean history. There were a few large crowds in the museum at the time we went, but she was able to effortlessly pivot and maneuver to make our experience enjoyable.

Exceptional tour by Eva that was able to not only give us lots of historical information but also was orchestrated in a way to allow us to feel and relate to the material in our own way. She is obviously very knowledgeable and an experienced communicator. I would highly recommend her as a tour guide.
