Goyang West Five Royal Tombs tours

Ethan was a wonderful guide and so well informed, not only on shamanism but also the history and culture of Korea. He emphasised having an open mind so you knew that the tour was a safe space! We were able to make a wish at the top of the mountain which was a lovely calming experience. Even if you are not a spiritual person, this tour will show you a new side to Seoul, you will be able to emerce yourself in nature, see beautiful views, learn about the history and stories of Korea.

Mr Patrick is an excellent tour guide, even shared me a tofu soup 😅! He showed us a good spot to overlook the Eunpyong Hanok Village. Gave us knowledge about the temples and the buddhism. Overall our tour is excellent! Would recommend this to anyone we know that's visiting South Korea! 😁

Had the best time with our guide Eleven. So informative and fun to see behind the scenes of not only k drama but other media formats. Mr Yu from MBC was very funny as well. This is a well organised tour and I highly recommend.

Today was so fun and we got tons of great pictures. So far in Korea I’ve been playing the part of “tour guide”, but it’s so much less stressful to have everything planned out as it was. We followed a set schedule but we were given some options at some of the locations. I recommend paying ₩3,000 extra at the tomb mounds to see the artifacts in the one that has been excavated. We opted to explore the street in Gyeongju instead of seeing the other mounds. There are lots of cute shops and street food stalls! Joseph was knowledgeable when we had questions, and was very friendly and patient! I was surprised how fast he learned our names. I’m happy we chose this tour as part of our honeymoon!

I’m especially glad I included this tour in my visit to Seoul. It offered a different perspective on the city and introduced me to an important part of Korea’s recent history. Exploring the places associated with its path toward democracy added depth to my trip and gave me plenty to think about afterward. Gina made the experience especially memorable. Her explanations helped me follow the sequence of events and understand how the different locations fitted into the bigger story. I enjoyed discovering the significance of places I might have overlooked and seeing the city through a different lens. The subject matter was sometimes heavy, but that was also what made the tour worthwhile. It invited reflection and helped me appreciate the people and struggles behind modern Korea. For anyone who enjoys learning about the destinations they visit, this tour is a rewarding way to spend time in Seoul. Many thanks to Gina for guiding us through such an important chapter of the country’s history.

the tour was fun and easy walking plus The Show was a lot of fun with some artists I really like playing that day. Great day out and would definitely do this again

There were only 8 people in our group, so a 9-seater van was sufficient. Our guide also served as the driver. The guide was very friendly and even helped us take photos. The lunch he recommended was delicious. The Ginseng Museum should be removed from the itinerary; it wasn't interesting. Everything else was great.
