Hello everyone,

which one is more natural?

Please send my regards to uncle Sam whom I'm looking forward to see.

Please send my regards to uncle Sam whom I'm looking forward to seeing.

It seems to me that the second one is more natural, but my teacher once told me the opposite.

Thanks in advance.

The first is wrong. The second is fine, though he's 'Uncle Sam'.

With "look forward to" (or "looking forward to" -- both are right), you need the -ing form.
I look forward to meeting you.
She is really looking forward to going to New York.
I'm looking foward to welcoming you back home.

I think the difference between 'look forward to' and 'looking forward to' is that 'look forward' is a bit formal than the other one. isn't it?

Yes, I agree.
