The tour and Kayla were Daebak! - My daughter and I did this tour and it was excellent. Each site was unique and worth seeing and our tour guide, Kayla Kim, personalized the experience with her local insights and infectious energy.

Beautiful views of Korea - Great Tour. It is long and you do a lot so be prepared. For the meal it is optional and you have to pay for it separately. I didn't realize that til after. You'll go to a town area and you can look for your own restaurant there if you like. Otherwise they plan your meal and you can pick what you want for easy decision making. Kayla was great and took photos which looked really good. She is very communicative through whatsapp the night before so you have all the information you need. There were a lot of beautiful places to take pics of as well. I'm really happy that I booked it. I was staying in gwangalli and got picked up at latest time at 1050am so I got the morning to go to Haeundae beach and explore around before getting picked up. Got dropped off at earliest time around 9pm. Got to walk around Haeundae afterwards as well and went last minute shopping.

Recommended not to miss any wonders near Busan - We booked this tour to not miss anything of the areas near Busan and we were not disappointed! Our Guide was engaging and fun! We are vegetarians and even the organized lunch was delicious (one of the best of our trip)! We absolutely recommend the experience and the group experience is not at all heavy even for skeptics of groups like us!

Rosey went out of her way... - Rosey went out of her way to take care of every single members of the group. I had joined tours offered by Viator in a lot of cities, I will rate Rosey the first choice I have encountered.

An adventurous day in Gyeongju - Rosey was very punctual and efficiently handled a big group for this trip. She is very fluent in English and assisted in our request such as toilet stops and food when we missed out the bookings. We had a great day.

100% worth it! - This tour was the best of the four tours we took during our time in South Korea - we managed to see so many places in one day! Our guide, Rosey, was fantastic - fun, knowledgeable, and spoke perfect English, making the tour engaging and easy to follow! She brought the rich history of Gyeongju to life, and her enthusiasm for the region made the experience even more enjoyable :) The traditional Korean lunch we had with our group was absolutely delicious, adding an authentic touch to the day. If you're looking to explore Korea's history and visit stunning locations, this tour is an absolute must!
