Incredible. When I showed our itinerary to friends from Korea they were super impressed - and we had the bonus of the amazing Justin as our guide ! Justin is an exceptional individual - incredible energy and history lessons every day. He lived in Canada for a while so perfect English and a great sense of humour. Overall we could not recommend this tour more for anyone of any age who wants to get out and see the country ! Thank you Justin and the excellent driver, Mr Kim.

I had a fun and informative trip. It was very interesting to leave a great deal about the history of the country leading up to modern day South Korea and Andy was very helpful.

It is a good trip if you have limited time in South Korea. It combines a bit of history, culture, nature and food experiences. The hotels were quite good. Unlike other trips that include Seoul in the itinerary, you spend no time in Seoul. This actually works well since it is quite easy to do Seoul on your own before or after the trip. Eating raw crabs in the Busan fish market was a highlight for me.

Mr Justin Choi was just about the best tour guide I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with as part of a tour. He was highly experienced, knowledgeable, proactive, courteous and professional in leading our tour over the 5-day 4-night tour. His use of technology was innovative, well received by the tour attendees and ought to be adopted as a standard. The printed guide he has designed was engaging, informative and incited me to want to learn more about the places he took us to. Thank you for making our experience a fantastic and memorable one.
