Had an Amazing full day tour of Gyeongju and a big part of that was our excellent guide, Kimmy. From pickup to drop off , everything felt smooth, well paced and full of interesting stories. Kimmy was knowledgeable, friendly, and great at reading the group’s energy. He explained the history of the Silla Kingdom, answered every question patiently, he also kept the day comfortable, balancing sightseeing with enough time to explore, take photos (he takes good photos as well) and enjoy local food. If you’re considering a Gyeongju day tour, would highly recommend this experience and especially Kimmy as your guide.

Our tour guide Leo was on time and professional. He provided short description about each stop/tour sites and gave enough free time to enjoy it on our own. He also assist us with taking photos and tips where to go. Gyeongju is a beautiful place may even beautiful when spring or autumn season. Will be back soon!

Our day tour to Gyeongju UNESCO was absolutely wonderful and truly memorable! ❤️ Our tour guide, Christina, was extremely helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. She took great care in showing us around and explained the history and significance of each beautiful site in such an interesting and easy-to-understand way. Her guidance and insights made the entire experience even more special. We had a fantastic day exploring the historical treasures of Gyeongju and creating wonderful memories.

Our guide, Yaho, was fantastic. Always available to answer questions and share the history of his country. He managed to meet and handle the expectations of a large group with different interests and paces. Not even the morning rain could ruin the tour.

It was a really great tour with a smaller group, so we all fit into a van, which I was thankful for. Our guide was Hee. He did really well coordinating everything in the swarming heat and drove like a legend. We had ample time for the itinerary with options to choose to visit the museum or some people to visit Wolji lake. I'm happy I choose the museum as theres lots of things to see from Shilla. He also acted as a photographer too. We stopped for lunch at an affordable ₩9900 buffet, theres other options too like a cafe cafe and CVS. A great tour to do if you want to see Gyeongju :)

Today’s guide Sang was incredibly kind, friendly, and very professional. He gave us a detailed and insightful explanation of Gyeongju’s history and development, and guided us through several key attractions. He also recommended some delicious restaurants and beautiful cafés. Gyeongju in April is truly stunning—Sang was charming, the scenery was gorgeous, and it was an absolutely wonderful day.

The tour covered many great attractions and our guides, Noah and Kelvin, were very friendly and knowledgeable about the places. They made sure we were all having a good time and helped to take nice photos and recommend good food. This tour is great to catch the attractions that are harder to access in Busan and also cover the key highlights at Gyeongju. Just only a bit tight timing for meals due to the packed itinerary. Thank you for the tour today!

We covered many attractions (meaning shorter stays at each spot), and I was very happy we could stay until evening to see the night view. The tour guide only confirmed the time via WhatsApp after 9 PM the night before, which initially made me a bit worried.
