A full comprehensive circuit of South Korea. We saw the highlights, but some days we arrived too late to the hotel to do much in the evening and were rushed at some of the stops. The actual tour is shorter as the first day is an arrival day and the last a departure day, so 6 days actually touring. The tour fluctauted in number as we picked up and dropped off people along the route, variously 20 people then 30 then 24. Dylan our guide was very knowledgeable and the tour booklet with information on South Korea: history, culture, stops we were making was a fabulous resource.Show more

We enjoyed our trip very much with our tour guide Justin Choi. He gave us a good history of each adventure and instruction of where to meet up if we are left to wonder off to explore for ourselves, places to explore and try local foods. The only thing I would like to add is to have an extra hour for us to do a bit of look around and little shopping, especially when the site is big with lots of shops and restaurants. Overall, it is a wonderful experience. Oh, almost forgot to mention the little history/culture book that was provided by our tour guide Justin was wonderful and interesting. Great experience! :)Show more
