Fantastic 5.0
While on a trip to Busan, I looked for tourist attractions in the suburbs and Gyeongju seemed interesting, so I joined this tour. Our guide, Mr. Han, provided detailed explanations, and I was particularly moved by the Gyeongju Choi Clan House. Beyond its beautiful architecture, hearing about how this family, despite accumulating wealth for over 300 years across 12 generations, valued a simple life and treated everyone with respect, regardless of their status, made the tour even more impressive. This time, I traveled with a few other Japanese participants, and we shared the bus and restaurants with participants from other countries. I felt at ease because I received a confirmation call the day before the tour, and on the day of the tour, we were informed in advance about restroom breaks. Since it's still hot in September, short-sleeved shirts, sunscreen, and sunglasses are recommended. There will be many opportunities to take photos, so a mobile charger is a must-have!

We loved this experience! we hired two hanbok’s for the whole day, we arrived the shop mid-day and there were no other customers, so we took the time to select the designs we liked, and then they went on to braid our hair. This went very quickly, but looked so beautiful! they put in flowers and decoration, and it did not feel like they were rushing, although it went quite fast and efficient. They have lockers in the shop to stow away the clothes you came in. We booked a photographer separately, because, when do you get to wear such beautiful clothes? It was a very fun experience, the clothes are beautiful and of good quality, lots of choice and sizes. would recommend 10/10! 🌸💗

JB was the most accommodating of tour guides. We never felt rushed, we did a lot, and he basically agreed to every special requests we made. We spoke all day, and he was knowledgeable with every place we went to. If we ever come back to the Busan area again, I’ll be sure to look him up.

I had two truly wonderful hours with Ms. Han Yujin during this class. We not only created a small work of art on the fan together, but I was also treated to Korean tea and treats. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to unwind and spend a few relaxing hours.

We had a fun day cooking bibimbap and gimbap! We also learned how to make an egg roll. The hostess is very accommodating and sweet. She explains everything clearly. She set up the table for us to enjoy the food we cooked as well. I highly recommend to try it 🫶🏻💕

We had a great stay at Rivertain Hotel Gyeongju. The location is very convenient and close to the bus terminal. Our room was spacious, and the bathroom was also large and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this hotel!
