Things to do in Gyeongju National Park

Had a wonderful tour in Gyeongju, the ancient capital of Korea. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and very friendly, making the city’s rich history come alive with engaging stories and clear explanations. Kayla Kim especially was very patient and helpful throughout the tour, taking us to good photo spots as well which made the experience even more enjoyable. Really appreciated the effort and would highly recommend this tour!

I went with my friend to that tour on March 7th and we both had lots of fun. We were a small group which felt more intimate so it was easier to hear our guide. By the way if you’re able to choose your guide I recommend Yaho. He really has the knowledge, experience and the passion for a tour guide. I’ve learned so much more about Korean history from him and it also helps that he’s originally from Busan. Our itinerary was Ahopsan Forest, Bulguska Temple, Gyochon village, Daereungwon Tomb and Woljeong Bridge. Additionally we also had a food market for a free time in the end of the trip. Yaho really took care for both me and my friend for a restaurant that has vegetarian options which is really considerate from him. I had a variety to choose from which I’m truly grateful for. I really recommend joining this tour and Yaho as a tour guide.

This full day tour was very enjoyable. My hubby and I specially loved the walk in the Ahopsan Forest. Though it was a very long walk up and down slopes and steps, we don’t feel tired at all. We believe it may be due to the great company we have and surrounding tall bamboo and the fresh air that it was so relaxing for us. Our tour guide, Yaho is a very fun and chatty guy. He shared a lot of the Korean history and culture throughout the trip. He brought us for a very sumptuous lunch and the price was very affordable. If we ever come back to Busan again, we hope to join Yaho for another day trip to some other places of interest. This day tour is highly recommended for people visiting Busan for the first time. 👍👍👍👍👍

Our trip to Gyeongju was a fascinating journey into the history of Korea’s Silla Kingdom, combined with the beauty of early spring. The itinerary was full but very rewarding. We visited the iconic Bulguksa Temple, the elegant traditional residence Choi Clan House, and the famous Cheonmachong Tomb, where the beautiful golden crown was discovered. Along the way we also enjoyed lovely plum blossoms in bloom, adding a touch of spring to the historic landscape. A special thanks to our guide DK, who made the whole experience even better. He was energetic, had a great sense of humour, and drove with great care, making the journey smooth and relaxing. A very enjoyable and well-organised tour.

Great experience! Kayla our tour guide was insightful and made the experience one to remember.

Sherry and Katrina really took good care of us on this trip, and they were very patient and answered all of our questions! The trip was cold, Gyeongju was really windy, but the tour bus was warm!

Step back into time of the Silla Kingdom with this tour. Our guides, Miss Katrina and Miss Sherry, provided deep insight into the history of the Silla Kingdom and its capital, Gyeongju. The journey is about two hours bus ride from Busan, but our driver skillfully navigated the hills safely with the big bus. The lunch was affordable and delicious at a rest area. The highlight -- Cheomseondae-- did not disappoint and was exactly how the pictures show it. If you like history, this is your tour and Miss Katrina and Sherry are your guides!

Incredible! I would do it again. DK was great; he taught us a lot about the history of Korea, and that seemed great to me. I recommend it 100%. I also had a great group.
