Well paced tour and awesome sights in only one day - The tour was great, we saw so many attractions, the cave was the best. We also went to starlight mall to have lunch. This was a pleasurable paced schedule that wasn't rushed and still allowed us to visit multiple places. Judy was our tour guide and she knows everything. Great experience.

Day trip to Starfield Library and Gwangmyeong Cave - Hana was amazing tourist guide and very knowledgeable in all the places we went to. Big thumbs up to her being so patiently waiting for everyone to get on the bus despite of the hot weather. It was very exciting and adventurous experience.

Fantastic Experience with Hana - We had an incredible experience on our tour thanks to our amazing guide, Hana. She led our group of about 15 people with such ease and professionalism—it never once felt rushed or chaotic. Hana struck the perfect balance between giving us enough time at each stop and keeping the tour running smoothly. Her timing was impeccable, and everything flowed effortlessly. Beyond her organizational skills, Hana was warm, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable. She shared fascinating insights along the way that really deepened our appreciation for the places we visited. We never felt like we were being herded from place to place—she made it feel personal and engaging throughout. A truly outstanding guide who made our day both memorable and enjoyable! One of the highlights of the day was the cave tour. While the cave’s history is deeply sobering—especially learning about its connection to slavery—it was handled with great respect and sensitivity. The visit was both thought-provoking and meaningful. On a more practical note, the cool temperatures inside the cave offered a very welcome break from the afternoon heat, making it an especially pleasant and reflective part of the experience.
