Enlightening trip at Gyeongju - Me and my husband really enjoyed the day with Cynthia and Mr.Kim. They are very patient and knowledgeable about the history of Shilla. Which ignited our trip with rich culture and history. We visited Gyeongju at Sunday which makes the traffic really challenging, but Cynthia and Mr.Kim did put lots of effort to make sure we wouldn’t be overwhelmed by the amount of walking. Overall this is a really enlightening experience, we are appreciative of all the effort our guide and driver has put in.

4 hour tour - We were staying in Gyeongju, so we opted for the four hour tour. Our guide, Cynthia, picked us up at our hotel and drove us to two different Buddhist temples. She provided great background information on the temples and gave us fantastic recommendations for restaurants and other things to do while in Gyeongju.

Great tour! - This private tour with CK was fantastic! The fall colors were amazing so all of the stops were quite busy, but absolutely worth it! He was very knowledgeable and was patient with all of our children's questions. Great tour!

Breathtaking Gyeongju with fill Autumn color with Korea Discovery Tour! - I absolutely recommend seeing doing the Gyeongju with these people. Our tour guide Gino was fabulous, with great info, and super professionalism. We arranged for them to pick us up in Busan, drive us to Gyeongju, a full day tour, and then drop off at our hotel in Gyeongju where we will chill out for a couple of days. Very reliable and decent people. 10/10

Wonderful Tour of Gyeongju with Jade - We had a wonderful day trip to Gyeongju with Jade. He picked us up at our hotel in Busan and we spent the entire day with him. We got to see Gyeongju, a lovely city and UNESCO World Heritage site. It was a terrific way to visit this city without having to stay overnight there. Jade was an excellent guide, gave us great information about Gyeongju and we had a delightful lunch with him. He let us stay to see the beautiful lights at Donggong Palace and Wolji Pond, and then brought us back to Busan in the evening. He dropped us off at an excellent restaurant for dinner near Gwangalli Beach, so that we could see the Saturday night drone show there at 9 pm. Fabulous day!! Highly recommend!

Packed day we had - Our guide Lily was super nice and had great historical and local knowledge. She offered us to be our photographer during the tour as well, which took like 8 hours btw. She also took us to eat and we could try out some really nice traditional korean meals. She picked us up at our Hostel and dropped us out at the same place at the end (very convenient). We are definitely booking other tours too while staying in Korea.

Excellent, informative tour - We did a private tour for 3 people (myself, my partner, and my mother) and had a fantastic time seeing the sights of Gyeongju! Our guide Jino was friendly, professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He drove us around in a spacious , comfortable van. He was able to cater the tour to our needs, taking into account if we have already seen some sights on our own. We were able to get a pickup from our accommodation in Gyeongju and dropoff at our next hotel in Busan. This was a good arrangement because we stayed 1 night in Busan to be and to see some sights that are nice to see at night (Woljeonggyo Bridge, etc.) and then do the tour the following day to see everything in the day, then head straight to Busan afterwards. I think you can see all the major sights in Gyeongju within one day. You can see them by yourself, but if you can do this tour, you will learn so much more and get a lot out of your visit. We learned a lot about the Silla dynasty (and many other subjects) that Jino was very knowledgeable about. I highly recommend this tour.
