Noel5.0•October 2025
Our tour guide Priya made our tour unforgettable. She went above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy.
Anonymous4.0•June 2025
The temple stay wasn’t necessary. Half a day would have been sufficient to allow for more time at different sites
Nicola5.0•April 2025
What a pleasant trip! Priya (our guide) went above and beyond to make this a wonderful time for everyone!...
What a pleasant trip! Priya (our guide) went above and beyond to make this a wonderful time for everyone! Unfortunately the time went by way too fast, but we did a lot in the week we had. Accomodation was pleasant, food wonderful, atmosphere fantastic! When we had questions Priya couldn't answer immediately, she always came back to us and sometimes even helped us with recommendations and more. After visting the DMZ zone/ War memorial, I had asked Priya if she maybe knew of a place where I could get old war medals as a gift for my father (not a question one normally would expect) - she came back to me with different websites, prices and adresses and even asked me a few days after that if I got what I needed/ needed more help! Asking about food - she gave different options as well as suggesting if we wanted to try it on the trip or not. It was my first time in South Korea and I enjoyed it so much, I regret having to go home - would love to see this wonderful country again!Show more
