What a treat - What an absolute treat this tour was!!! David is such a pro!! Both as a tour guide and as a photographer. Creating a relaxed and fun environment to turn us all into great models ;) The fact that it is such a small group makes it a super personal experience. Well worth spending the little extra money to get this unique experience. Thank you Triends!!

Fun day with lots of photos - David was a great guide. He was funny, friendly, and informative. He took lots of great (and some silly) photos throughout the trip. Our favorite stop was the last one- the palace at night. My only suggestion would be more options for lunch— maybe a street with restaurants for people to choose from. The choices at the restaurant we went to were pretty limited.

Great guide, great photography, and great vibes! - Really fun tour! The guide and his wife are both so pleasant. The guide has a breadth of knowledge on Gyeongju’s history and shared some really fascinating facts. His photography skills are really impressive, the turnaround time was quick, and the photos I received were great. We hit all the key sites in Gyeongju (which would not have been possible by bus as a day trip from Busan had I not gone on the tour). Definitely recommend!

A picturesque day in Gyeongju - Our tour guide JN took me and my family in a group of 5 on a day trip of Gyeongju. We visited several UNESCO listed sites including the Seokguram Grotto and Cheonmachong Tomb. JN was knowledgeable, friendly, and left ample time for me to take pictures of Gyeonju’s spectacular scenery! We had a great day 👍!

A wonderful day trip from Busan - It rained on the one day we booked a tour on our 5-day trip to Busan, but everything was manageable. Gyeongju was a very pleasant surprise! The cultural, historical and artistic content of this destination is amazing! I am usually a DIY type traveler but for this place, I'd say, go with the expert! Jesse was very good at explaining what happened in the area and how Korea came to be. There is still so much of Busan left to discover and understand and we look forward to future visits. We highly recommend Gyeongju and we highly recommend visiting it with Triends!

Couldn't recommend more! - My friend and I did this trip last week and had the best time! We showed up the morning of and were greeted by our amazing guide, Jay, who told us that we were the only two for that day, so we were lucky enough to have the trip to ourselves. Major props to Jay; he kept us informed at every stage, letting us know before each leg where we were going and how long it would take. He shared so much knowledge of each location, and also answered any questions we had. With just the two of us on the trip, things didn't take quite as long as they normally do on a group trip, so Jay made sure we got the most out of our time, and even took us to an amazing coffee shop where we had the best coffee we had ever tasted. Jay took us to a great place for lunch, too, that did a super modern bibimbap with avocado (which went over very well with two Aussies). We did this trip as a day-trip during our longer stay in Busan, and I had considered trying to hit all the stops on our own using public transport. If you're considering this trip, absolutely book it! There's no way we could have gotten everywhere on the itinerary in one day on our own and we wouldn't have gotten all of Jay's great knowledge along with it. This day was one of the best of our two weeks in Korea. Highly recommend!

It was okay - It turns out it was just our family of 3, so it was nice. Our guide's English wasn't as good as I expected; so it was a bit hard to understand, and he didn't give much history background. He was more of a private driver driving us around different sites. I was a bit disappointed. I was on a similar tour before from another guy from Aju tour, and he was really good. He also smoked when he was waiting for us to look around Bulguksa and Anapji, so the car ride back to Busan wasn't pleasant.
