Mimi was an excellent guide! She was very knowledgeable, on time, professional, and flexible with the plan since it was a bit cold and rainy. It was really helpful to have a guide for this day trip. She was equally great engaging with us, and with our teenagers. Would highly recommend this tour!

After spending the first part of our Korean vacation on the busy streets of Seoul, our family was in dire need of a different experience. We certainly found it with the tour of UNESCO heritage sites in Gyeongju. This private tour was definitely a highlight of our trip! Our English-speaking tour guide, Jason, did an amazing job! He was very friendly, engaging, and informative. Not an easy feat considering that my wife and I were accompanied by our teen daughter. Each site was incredible and we learned so much. Though it was a full day, the journey was very enjoyable thanks to Jason’s personality, passion, and pride for his country and its rich history. We also travelled in comfort and style in his passenger van…an added bonus!!

Gyeongju is an essential destination during a vacation in South Korea, our guide Finn was the best thing that could have happened to us, always very attentive, he took us not only to the tourist sites, but also to typical Korean places that we loved, very punctual and very patient for all the questions we asked him at all times.

We had an amazing day out exploring the countryside and sites around Gyeongju. Lily was a fabulous guide and she tailored our day according to what we wanted to see. Lily was very friendly and a wealth of information, we had a lot of fun with her and she dropped us off at the KTX station at the end of the day. Highly recommend this tour with Lily!
