Great trip with Joe - Really great trip, Joe was a great guide. Everything went to plan despite some pretty heavy traffic and we had plenty time everywhere we went. Joe had great knowledge, and managed the group well. Only minor comment and it doesn't change the rating is maybe do lunch somewhere with more veggies options but we managed to grab stuff at the nearby convenience store so didn't affect our day just a suggestion.

Gyeongju unesco authentic tour from Busan - We had an incredible time exploring Busan! Our guide DK was highly experienced and shared deep insights into the city's history and culture that we never would have discovered on our own. Everything was explained clearly and engagingly, making the landmarks truly come to life. Beyond the knowledge, he made the day genuine fun—it felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring with a local friend. If you want a seamless and energetic way to see the best of Busan, I highly recommend this guide!

Great Itinerary and Beautiful Weather - An all encompassing day trip to the Gyeongju area for me and my family. It was a beautiful day and we had no crowds since it was after the May long weekend holiday. Our guide, Ericka, was a bit loud and her sense of humour was not to my taste, but she tried, and was informative. We would have enjoyed the day more if our guide was a better match for us, but it was still worth doing.
