Sunny, the Chinese tour guide, is great. He will introduce the characteristics of each scenic spot and is also very considerate in helping everyone take photos. The length of stay at each attraction is also just right, so you won’t run out of sightseeing. I highly recommend it!

Gyeongju is beautiful. Xiaozhou’s tour guide and Giselle’s company made the entire Gyeongju trip more perfect. I highly recommend that everyone can choose this itinerary without fear of language barriers. There are tour guides in both Chinese and English on site. I highly recommend it. It’s a fulfilling day👍

Amazing your with beautiful sights. Our tour guides Jiwon and Angela were so knowledgeable and kind. I did this tour with a 5 and 6 year old and they had a blast. They helped us take some amazing pictures as well. Must see tour if you're in Busan.

This one-day tour is affordable, the tour guide Happy sister takes very good care of us, the tour car is comfortable, the meeting point is convenient and easy to find, take us to shoot the night view is very beautiful, but the autumn leaves have not turned red, and it rained a day, some disappointment
