Cherry blossom private tour
Dia was an exceptional guide. He is very knowledgeable and accommodating. He acted as our photographer as well as our escort picking us up at the terminal, taking us via taxi and bus to a park outside of Busan so we could see the cherry blossom festival we requested to see along with a cherry blossom path. It was beyond what we expected and if we could have taken him for the rest of our trip, we would have!

It was an amazing tour...
It was an amazing tour and my guide, Salomé was awesome. She was friendly, engaging, very knowledgeable and ensured I had a great time exploring the city. Even though I was there a short while, I saw a lot of places and learned a lot about the city, culture and the country. Highly recommend the tour and my guide Salomé.

We should’ve gotten a taxi at the pier
Haedong Yong Gung Temple, beautiful place, too crowded not interested in tourists trap. Gamcheon, we should’ve taken pictures by the heart and leave instead of walking down the steep hill, Bad for our knees, wasted a lot of time. Requested to buy facial masks and eat seafood, was told she know where to go, we never went there, we ate chicken for lunch, no seafood. At the ship a taxi offered to take us around for 5 hours, escort came with taxi, her taxi was muah higher, not happy with her decision. She mentioned I told her to go to pier 8, looking back at our WhatsApp conversation, I never mentioned what pier we were coming in, Disappointed in escort and tour.!
