Great tour of interesting beautiful sites! - We had a wonderful tour with Jino. He moved at our pace and was willing to customize the tour as much or little as requested. He was very well informed about the sites we were seeing and provided lots of interesting information about the area as well as Korean history and modern Korea. He even suggested several lunch options and the one that we chose was fabulous. My husband has some mobility issues and Jino made various recommendations to limit walking as needed. The tour itself was unique and interesting. It was a great day and we highly recommend.

Outstanding guide - Joy was an outstanding guide. She was very knowledgeable, flexible, caring, and with perfect English. She went beyond her responsibility for us staying after the tour to make sure our temple stay check in went smoothly (and which we actually had a problem that she helped fix). Beautiful area and great tour.

Terrific tour around Gyeongju - Joy was a terrific guide and we really enjoyed spending time with her. She was born and raised in the area, so she treated the tour like showing us her home (which did in fact include a drive by of her parents home). She was very knowledgeable and also very helpful as we had a bit of trouble with our reservation at the Templestay and she made sure we were all sorted before she left.

A day of Joy - Joy was the perfect tour guide. She was knowledgable, friendly and informative. She explained the places visited in clear detail in excellent English making the whole day very enjoyable. Her car was modern and spotless and she was an excellent driver. Joy took several pictures during the day and then sent them to us at the end of the day together with a video showing the route of the trip inter disposed with photos. Highly recommended.

A little farther afield in Busan... - Although it was our first time in Busan, we opted to go farther afield and visit the remarkable UNESCO sites at Gyeongju, more than an hour’s drive from the port. Our guide, Soo-Hyeon Kim, drove us in a very clean and comfortable private car to beautiful Seokguram Grotto and nearby Bulguksa Temple, 8th Century masterpieces of Buddhist art and architecture – all the more beautiful as the cherry trees were in full bloom. Later, we visited the burial mounds at Daereungwon, which were fascinating (and the treasures uncovered there are amazing). Soo was a great guide and made time before returning us to our ship for a visit to Jagalchi Market, the largest fish market in South Korea – an amazing variety of the freshest seafood I have ever seen. Great tour!
