Gyeonggi Day trips

James was such a great guide. Positive, and gave us great information about the attractions prior to visiting them. He was a very active and inviting guide; it really felt like he was focused and attentive while we made our way through the itinerary. Would really recommend this tour and James specifically!

We had a great tour of Alpaca World, Nami Island, and the Garden of Morning Calm. Thank you to our guide, Sharon, for being friendly and patient. We had enough free time to explore each stop without feeling rushed.

really enjoyed the tour! highly recommended! Julie from PLK Travel is amazing! Very knowledgeable, informative and passionate! worth every penny! love it that she brought us to the bridge first where there were no other tourists! could take many photos! Lunch buffet was good too! timing wise was good too! not too slow or fast.

We had an amazing time exploring the alpaca world, enjoying the Gangchon Rail Bike, and visiting Nami Island, all thanks to our wonderful tour guide, Mina! She was incredibly informative and insightful throughout the trip. She shared interesting facts, stories, and background about each destination, giving us a deeper appreciation of the places we visited rather than simply showing us around. Her knowledge and passion made the tour both educational and enjoyable. She was also friendly, patient, and attentive, making sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. From the adorable alpacas to the scenic rail bike experience and the beautiful landscapes of Nami Island, Mina made every stop even more memorable with her thoughtful explanations and local insights.

The day trip including lunch to the charming town of Biei covered about 6 attractions. Great value for the price. I really liked the Blue Pond. I truly wouldn't recommend Shikisai-no-Oka in October, there really isn't much to see. Our tour guide, Cinna, was very nice and looked after everyone. Since there were many Korean tourists in this group, there was another lovely Korean guide who was very expressive and spoke a lot. Even though I didn't understand what she was saying, she kept waving both hands goodbye as she saw us off. Both guides took good care of everyone, helped take photos, and introduced each spot. The only area for improvement is that when first contacting tour members, the email sent a WhatsApp link. With so many scams nowadays, I don't click on links like that. Although I missed out on a lot of pre-trip information, I arrived at the meeting point about 20 minutes early on the day of departure. This is a fast-paced yet efficient way to see most of Biei's attractions in a single day. Personally, I love the town of Biei for its peace and tranquility.

Henry was our tour guide for the DMZ tour. He is super friendly and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about North and South Korea history. Be prepared to get your exercise on as there is uphill climbing but it was worth it!

Dragon Kim was our guide with Korea Tours, the trip was spectacular, super punctual and attentive. They even contact you a day in advance to start planning the tour dynamics. He was very kind, very charismatic, gave us some delicious candies, explained everything very well, and followed the rules exactly according to the DMZ protocol. 100% recommended. Sincerely, Karen and Juan Navarro from Mexico

Had a great DMZ tour with VIP Travel. Our Chinese-speaking guide, Hong, was knowledgeable and friendly, sharing interesting historical insights about the DMZ throughout the trip. He also provided useful tips that made the experience even more enjoyable. Thanks to Hong, the tour was both educational and memorable.

The trip was value for money — from the colorful flowers in Garden of Morning Calm to pedalling at Gangchon Rail Park to exploring Nami Island. It was very chilly though. We also had a nice tour guide, Miss Hwa.
