A brilliant day. ...

5.00A brilliant day. Thank you to our excellent guide Sean, who made it great fun - enthusiastic, energetic and full of information. It's a long day - and our only regret was not having more time at some of the locations - but that's our fault for not booking more time in South Korea! This is a great option for anyone staying in Busan with just one day to see Gyeongju.

5.00Interesting trip, did not feel long even if it took the entire day. Excellent guiding by Christina. She gave very clear instructions😁, had a good timing, and importantly focused on the safety for the guest. But we will more remember her good spirit and caretaking. Also like to thank my co -travellers for making the trip meaningful and interesting. David, Norway

5.00We had a wonderful day exploring Gyeongju with Christina today! I loved the very clear itinerary with multiple visit to the temple, tomb, village and more. Christina had great background information to share at each spot to help us appreciate each site's cultural significance even more. I appreciated the flexibility of the tour and that it helped us plan a whole day while in the Busan area with the tour doing the heavy lifting. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone who would like to venture out of Busan!
