we had a smooth drive to the places we went to. Our guide Noel was helpful in giving us tips on where to eat and what to do. He was patient with the group. He had a good grasp of the places we went to and gave us a brief background ot.the sites included in the tour. the sights were good. We love Sokcho beach and enjoyed eating day crabs in the tourist market. We had a taste of foot spa before going to Mt. Seoraksan. it was a day well-spent. Thank you Noel for taking care of us.

my tour was the syorak-nami island-bike rail sept 4 wed. this is a long tour but it was worth it. you could not do this on you own since mt syorak is 3 hrs away. Spent most of the morning driving to/exploring Mt Syorak. April, our tour guide is exceptional. She would explain what to do. She gave some tribia and brief history of South Korea along the way. she also reserved lunch for the group before heading to nami. lunch was on a restaurant near nami entrance. ate chuchon chicken galbi. Explored Nami for about 2 hrs since we need to leave early than the rest of the group for the 5 pm bike trail ride. The only thing that was a disappointment which is my fault is the bike trail. there are 2 bike trails. I thought this tour was the longer one. overall, this was great. back at myeondong bus stop #3 by 7:30-8pm.

it was a great experience with Ktour Tour guide Tino, he has given many information and good recommendations about the tour destinations! We went to Nami Island first in the morning, rent a bike and cycle around the island taking nice pictures, then we went to Seoraksan National Park and took the cable car, and climb to see Biryongpokpo Falls within the 3 hours allocated time given, weather was nice and cool, air was very fresh.. it was a great experience with Ktour will recommend others to try this Ktour with Tino!

Kangwon was an exceptional tour guide who made our day trip in Korea truly memorable. He was well-organized, punctual, and provided clear instructions, ensuring everything went smoothly. His local knowledge and friendly demeanor enhanced our experience at every stop. Kangwon’s thoughtful recommendations and attention to detail made the day both enjoyable and stress-free. Highly recommend him for anyone looking to explore Korea with a fantastic guide!

I liked everything very much. A small group, a picturesque route (both the sea and the mountains). Don't forget to take swimming trunks (unfortunately I forgot and didn't swim). I won't say anything about the mountains, you have to see it for yourself. Even the hot spring turned out to be quite interesting - first you warm your feet in one place, then in another you walk on stones in cold water, it's good for your feet.

Incredible tour with David Park, the friendliest guide! the sights were worth the exhaustion, lots of walking but these places were absolutely breathtaking. booking this tour was a great way to go to a place much further from the city to explore without having to figure out your own way, the transportation and itinerary provided make this super easy! would def recommend. :)
