Coisas para fazer em Cheomseongdae

November 2nd, family of 3, Korean (Wendy). We were so lucky to meet Ryu, a passionate and energetic guide! Thanks to guide Ryu, we successfully wrapped up a happy and enjoyable Gyeongju one-day tour on November 2nd. Out of 41 people from various countries, there were only 3 Koreans. Managing and leading people from multiple countries couldn't have been easy, yet he paid attention to even the small details for solo travelers, constantly asked for feedback from everyone after every destination, checked if anything was needed, and even had the sensitivity to carefully ask solo travelers if they were comfortable joining others for meals. Above all, while giving explanations in English at each destination, he also looked after the youngest guests—a 2-3 year-old child and a Japanese mother-son duo who applied alone—and even showed the passion of holding and playing with the child. I wanted to applaud his dedication in taking care of all 41 people. Even though the meeting spots and times were explained slowly and repeatedly, and an unexpected situation arose with 4 foreign travelers telling the guide to come and go elsewhere, guide Ryu did not panic, safely gathered the majority first so as not to keep everyone waiting, and must have been exhausted searching everywhere for the 4 people, yet he kept his smile until the end and found them at Bulguksa Temple—I was truly moved. He considered everyone's pace, including the elderly, young children, and kids, while walking. I would like to express my gratitude once again for guide Ryu's thoughtfulness and sincerity in trying to teach our child, who didn't fully understand the English used during transit, even one more historical fact. Thanks to our guide, we will definitely book with RedTours again next time. I am sending my belated applause for your passion, and please stay healthy.

Foi uma viagem excelente a Gyeongju, que integrou muitos outros lugares incríveis. Começamos na espetacular Floresta de Bambu de Ahopsan, depois seguimos para o Templo Bulguksa. Junto com a colorida folhagem de outono, caminhamos até as misteriosas tumbas (Daerungwon) e também passeamos pela charmosa ponte de água (Woljeonggyo) na Aldeia Hanok de Gyeongju. Para coroar tudo isso, terminamos no Palácio Wolji. É uma pena que tivemos que voltar ao pôr do sol e não pudemos ficar para ver o palácio iluminado.

Hoje foi muito divertido e tiramos ótimas fotos. Até agora na Coreia, tenho desempenhado o papel de "guia turístico", mas é muito menos estressante ter tudo planejado como estava. Seguimos um cronograma fixo, mas recebemos algumas opções em alguns dos locais. Recomendo pagar ₩3.000 a mais nos túmulos para ver os artefatos no que foi escavado. Optamos por explorar a rua em Gyeongju em vez de ver os outros túmulos. Há muitas lojinhas fofas e barracas de comida de rua! Joseph foi bem-informado quando tivemos dúvidas, e foi muito amigável e paciente! Fiquei surpresa com a rapidez com que ele aprendeu nossos nomes. Estou feliz por termos escolhido este passeio como parte da nossa lua de mel!

Mr. Park was an excellent guide who tried to answer all of our questions. When it started raining, he lent me his umbrella, which was very thoughtful and much appreciated. He was very friendly, and I’m glad we had him as our guide.

Went on a tour with Antony and a group of other tourists from all over the world. We visited Bulguksa Temple, Seokguram Grotto, Daereungwon Ancient Tomb, Cheomseongdae Observatory, Hanok Village, and the Gyeongju National Museum. It was so great doing this with a guide! It would be impossible to do using public transport. Antony gave concise and interesting explanations about all the highlights. Communication was handled via the app. For instance, we were picked up right in front of our hotel and dropped back off there. Before lunch, we were asked what we felt like eating and were given a set amount of time before the tour resumed. All in all, it was a carefree, relaxing, and wonderful day! Thank you so much!

O passeio foi absolutamente magnífico! Estamos muito gratos por ter tido o Hans como nosso guia turístico. Ele foi educado, respeitoso, atencioso e incrivelmente conhecedor. Explicou tudo com clareza e tornou toda a experiência informativa e agradável. O Hans foi além do esperado ao nos ajudar a encontrar os melhores locais para fotos e até tirou fotos nossas, garantindo que todos estivessem bem orientados durante todo o passeio. A sua simpatia, profissionalismo e atenção aos detalhes fizeram realmente toda a diferença. Como era a minha primeira vez aqui, estou especialmente grato por o Hans ter ajudado a tornar esta viagem tão memorável para a minha mulher e para mim. Divertimo-nos imenso e não poderíamos ter pedido um guia melhor. Com certeza recomendarei o Hans aos meus amigos! Mais uma vez, muito obrigado, Hans, por um passeio tão fantástico, divertido e inesquecível. Tornou a nossa experiência verdadeiramente especial! 😊

The Gyeongju one-day tour was a wonderful experience! I visited many fascinating places rich in history and impressive architecture, surrounded by beautiful golden autumn leaves that made Gyeongju even more charming. Despite the persistent rain caused by the typhoon, the trip became an unforgettable adventure and gave me unique memories to cherish. A special thank you to our tour guide, Lee Byung-kyun, who was incredibly thoughtful, patient, and helpful throughout the journey. His kindness and dedication made the experience much more enjoyable despite the challenging weather. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore Korea's rich history, culture, and beautiful autumn scenery. I would love to visit Gyeongju again on a sunny day to fully enjoy everything this beautiful city has to offer! Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

After deciding to visit Gyeongju, I compared many tours, and choosing this one in the end was so worth it! 👍 We visited all the important attractions, and Jesse, acting as photographer, driver, and tour guide all at once, was extremely professional. He told us stories and even gave us pose instructions when taking pictures, so we didn't have to worry about feeling awkward~ What was most thoughtful was that while we were waiting in line to take photos at Daereungwon, the sun was quite strong, and Jesse actually brought out a large umbrella to shield us from the sun!! He even noticed details like that, and I am truly grateful to them ☺️ Additionally, although lunch was not included in the tour fee, Jesse recommended several different types of restaurants for us to choose from~ And of course, the recommended restaurants were also delicious!! There was plenty of time to explore Hwangridan-gil~ For someone like me who loves to wander around, this was fantastic! In short, if you want to visit all the important attractions in one day while also getting many beautiful photos, please don't hesitate and just sign up! This trip to Gyeongju was definitely the most worthwhile and happiest day of my entire journey~ 🩵🤍

Foi uma noite divertida e uma boa caminhada noturna. Tem vistas incríveis à noite e as trilhas nas montanhas são bem iluminadas com caminhos que não são tão difíceis de percorrer. Fomos numa terça-feira à noite, então não estava muito lotado, mas ainda dá para perceber que é uma atração popular. Uma das principais vantagens deste passeio, eu acho, é que chegar e sair deste lugar pode ser difícil pelo que vi, e o guia cuida da parte logística mais difícil. O guia também foi muito simpático e prestativo. Quando chegamos, havia muitas pessoas esperando por um táxi para ir embora, já que o ponto de partida não tem muito espaço para estacionamento. Depois de ir aos 3 locais principais e tirar muitas fotos e vídeos, encerramos a noite com uma rápida parada na praia de Gwangalli, que também é muito bonita à noite, especialmente a vista da ponte. No geral, eu recomendaria, pois foi um momento agradável, com momentos memoráveis e vistas deslumbrantes.
