Our office staffs storm from the several areas and destinations that you will visit. While Asia Horizon’s office staff hold the requisite experience and skill that their job demands, the guides are all licensed by the Ministry of Tourism, speak fluent English, Korean, German, Chinese, French, Russian and hold a high Altitude First Aid Certificate. All share great enthusiasm for guiding and have been chosen for their native experience and thorough personal knowledge.
They really enjoy what they do and express great joy in introducing you to favorite local places, people and the behind-the-scenes spots that would never otherwise be explored. As they open up, you will begin to learn about their own lifestyles and families, along with personal influences and beliefs. They have great interpersonal skills, and their fine sense of humor will make you feel very comfortable during your trips.
