We were shown all the sites on our list Korean style and even fit in some extra stops and a local shopping street. She topped it off by getting a local Korean BBQ restaurant to open especially for us to enjoy a wonderful and delicious dining experience. Mr. Kim also provided a pleasant ride fromand back to Busan.

5.00This tour is definitely a “must do” while visiting Busan! Our tour guide - Jade Kim was very knowledgeable, accommodating and added extras like stopping at a highway rest stop for us to customize our Korean experience. The sights and history of Korea along with Jade’s fluency in English enhanced our tour. The tour was as advertised and more - we would highly recommend this tour and endorse Mr Kim as an excellent Korean tour guide that made our visit most memorable!!
