Perfect tour! Highly recommended!

A great tour with an excellent guide. DK was friendly, knowledgable and always considerate of all our family members needs. Communication before the tour was easy and we were given great advise on how to maximise time / benefit. The itinerary was fully customised to our preferred sights. Choosing this tour allowed us to really get the most out of Busan visit. The company also managed to secure us Sky Capsule tickets which normally sell out in minutes. I would highly recommend this tour!

Private tour to Gyeongju

Everything was absolutely perfect! Our guide, Jino was super nice and incredibly knowledgeable. Loved hearing all the stories and history of our visits. My daughter loved talking about K-drama and Korean culture with him. She has been studying Korean language and excited to speak some. He was very accommodating. Incredible experience and I will highly recommend.

Great for the Whole Family

Our guide DK was very friendly with our two littles that we brought along and considerate of their needs (ie, getting shade and food). We got to see 5 different places and he recommended an amazing lunch of naemyeon.

Our tour guide Jino was...

Our tour guide Jino was amazing! He was very patient, and knowledgeable, and took us to the sites we requested and more! We didn’t book the sky capsule tickets in advance, but Jino made sure that we went to the less busy station first thing in the morning, and we got lucky with last minute tickets! He never rushed us at any of the sites, and made excellent recommendations for lunch based on what we were interested in. He was a pleasure to spend the day with!

A little bit of Busan in a day

We were fortunate to have booked a tour with Jade as our guide. Jade arrived exactly on time. He took us all over Busan, wherever we wanted to go, beginning at the Haedonyonggungsa Buddhist temple before the heavy crowds. Then, onto Jalgachi fish market where we devoured the most fabulous meal ever! I am in love with the spicy fish broth, not to mention the amazing grouper with the garlic butter! Absolutely unforgettable meal! Then, Momo’s roastery for a fabulous afternoon coffee/tea and treat with a brief stop at Gamcheon cultural village. Concluding our tour with some afternoon shopping and browsing for the kids at the Shinsagae and Centum City mall. Along our journey, Jade shared a wealth of knowledge and insight about Busan, Korean culture and the city. Upon completion, Jade even recommended the most amazing spot for dinner spot, with mouthwatering chicken! I would highly recommend Jade as your tour guide any day! We we hope to return again and would only ask Jade to assist us in the future! Thank you, Jade

100% recommend this tour!

This was a great tour! There was strong communication right up front regarding where to go. We ended up seeing the UN cemetery, the Skywalk, and the fish market. Our tour guide Young was very knowledgable and EXTREMELY patient. Our party had a small medical episode (not the tours' fault) that delayed us a bit, but once it passed, Young continued on no problem. He was very attentive and the tour company had clear protocols. Additionally - we are vegans (not easy in SK), and Young found us a lunch restaurant with excellent vegan options. We felt extremely safe, the van was extremely clean, and we recommend this tour 100%.
