Tour with Bobby Kim - We had a great tour, with our fantastic guide Bobby Kim. He was talkative and really informative. The tour took us to some different places, with a lot of history, that is explained by Bobby Kim. He was really passionate about telling stories about the places we visited.

Worthwhile Tour - This Tour is worthwhile. It is a long day, so be prepared. Bobby Kim is a wonderful Tour Guide ~ he is attentive, committed to service and towards making sure everyone is taken care of. He is knowledgeable and takes pride in providing relevant information so that you leave with a sense of the history of Korea. The buffet where we went for lunch is super affordable with excellent dining. Bobby also communicated via WhatsApp which made it easy to follow along and reassuring to know that things were in order and timely. Thank you, Bobby for making this Tour so interesting.

Sophie was a great tour... - Sophie was a great tour guide! Not only did she do a nice job at keeping the group in line but she also shared so many cool facts about the history of each location we visited. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of the ancient kingdom of Silla and would recommend people sign up for this activity if they want to appreciate Korean history a bit more. My personal favorites of the day were seeing the Daereungwon royal tomb complex and the Woljeonggyo Bridge at night.

The best way to experience Gyeongju - I've been on quite a few different guided tours, and I can honestly say that this has been my favourite! This is largely due to our tour guide, Lucy, being an absolute delight. Throughout the tour, she was interesting and witty, and displayed a wealth of historical and cultural knowledge, making this an incredible learning experience. An added bonus is that she was genuinely warm and friendly and made me feel like I was hanging out with a friend instead of a guide. As a solo traveller, I really appreciated this. Lucy even assisted me with directions ro additional aites I wanted to explore, and constantly have us tips to take the very best pictures! I also had the pleasure of meeting Victoria on the same bus. Though she wasn't actually our guide, she was still helpful and friendly, and made us feel truly welcome. Logistically, the tour was very well paced, and we had adequate time to explore each beautiful site. Pick-up and drop-off were conducted smoothly, and the bus itself was very comfortable. My only regret is that I don't have enough time to book another tour with them on this trip! I would definitely make another booking the next time I'm in SK.
