A huge thank you to our guide, Mr. Zheng, for the detailed explanations provided throughout the tour. His attention to detail was evident from the pre-trip notifications, where he thoroughly explained the weather and recommended dining options. During the tour, he shared the historical stories of Gyeongju with humor, making for a relaxed and pressure-free experience! Although the day's itinerary was affected by the weekend Gyeongju festival, which made it difficult to find parking, Mr. Zheng quickly overcame the difficulties and ensured we completed our sightseeing tour. If you want to travel to Gyeongju without having to rush for the bus, I recommend joining a day tour.

Our tour guide, Zheng Ronghao, was truly enthusiastic and attentive. He explained the history and cultural tidbits of each attraction in detail and proactively helped us take photos. There were four of us, and we rode in a seven-seater vehicle. We were very lucky to have a private tour that day, which was especially comfortable. The itinerary was also very smooth. Highly recommended!

For our family trip to Daegu, I found a Gyeongju day tour departing from Daegu on Klook and immediately signed us all up! Before the trip, the organizer, Lecirt Travel, and our guide, Mr. Jung Yong-ho, thoughtfully sent reminder emails and detailed itinerary information. This included: 📍 the meeting point (with actual photos for easy identification), the guide's contact information, itinerary and lunch options, and reminders about the day's weather and rain gear, etc. The comprehensive information completely eliminated any pre-trip jitters. Although there were some temporary issues with the shuttle on the day of departure (thanks to our guide Jung Yong-ho for the immediate coordination), we were fortunate to be with a professional team. The travel agency promptly dispatched a dedicated person and car for transportation, and even upgraded our itinerary, making the trip not only smooth but also unexpectedly more exciting. The performance of the guide team was particularly impressive: Simon's tour was lively and engaging, and he was passionate about introducing Gyeongju's history and culture. He also shared local delicacies and hidden gems. Russell thoughtfully helped everyone find the best angles for taking photos, capturing artistic family photos. On the way back, due to traffic, he even provided bottled water and Korean snacks to satisfy our hunger. This level of attentiveness deserves a "6-star service" rating! Overall, this day trip was well-organized and provided meticulous service, ensuring our whole family had a fun and worry-free experience. I highly recommend this tour for an easy trip to Gyeongju from Daegu! 🌸

All four of us booked a private tour. Our driver and guide, Mr. Zheng, was very friendly. He provided detailed introductions and explanations in Mandarin at every attraction, which helped us understand Korean history better. We felt like friends throughout the entire trip and had a wonderful time. He even dropped us off at our hotel on the way back. We are very grateful for Mr. Zheng's thoughtful hospitality.

Yong, our driver-guide, was incredibly humorous and nice throughout the entire trip. His explanations were insightful and not superficial. He had a wealth of knowledge when answering questions and was also a great photographer! The entire itinerary, including the driving and timing, was very comfortable and well-organized. I would recommend this day trip to my friends.
