Amazing tour, our guide Jason was five star all the way, so much knowledge - Amazing tour packed full of knowledge from our guide Jason, patient, friendly, funny. My mother and father in law walk slower and he understood and didn’t rush us, we seen amazing sights and he took family photos for us, we stopped for lunch at a fish market and my son and husband picked out their favorites for lunch ( fed all of us lobster, octopus, shrimp) a delicious meal. We seen all the sights and found Busan to be a beautiful city packed with history, Jason gave us info and facts for the whole tour explaining all the sights and history, he was the highlight of our trip to Japan and Korea, we felt comfortable with Jason the minute we met, in his van he had water waiting for us and rice snacks from his wife, we let him guide us and show us the culture/history of this amazing city and he did it all, I would highly recommend Jason for a tour of Busan.

Indeed amazing… - Jason was amazing showing us busan and its amazing culture. All the places of the hidden gem of busan were indeed beautiful and unforgettable. He was especially good with one of our children who was not very easy to please. In the heat of the summer, Jason was professional and guided us with in depth history and enlightened us with valuable insights and knowledge. I highly recommend Jason and this amazing experience.

Take a tour like you are one of the family - Our tour guide, Larry was the very best Busan has. He personalized our tour to meet our physical needs and offered a personal perspective that made us feel like we were seeing everything with a friend. I can’t tell you how much this experience meant to me and my family. If you do anything in Busan take this tour.

Excellent Personalized Experience - Just spent an amazing day in Busan with Dylan, the owner of Korea Go Tours. Dylan was an amazing tour guide. He did a private tour for my sister and me with stops all over Busan, including Ahopsan Bamboo Forest (a highlight). He speaks perfect English, will coordinate a tour day based on your interests, and really went out of his way to make us feel well cared for. He’s also very knowledgeable about the history and cultural sights. Could not recommend him more highly. We only had 1 full day in Busan and, thanks to Dylan, we really felt like we got to see it all. Such a personal experience that made our trip so memorable.

Best Tour Of My Life - Sincerely the best tour I’ve ever done, and I’ve traveled the world!!!! So many tours and so many journeys, I still wonder if Busan is my favorite city or if our tour guide was just the best person to ever meet. He’s so knowledgeable and has lived across Asia. He speaks English, Japanese, Korean and Chinese!!!! And has a deep understanding not only of the history of the continent but the culture. 100/10 would definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent guide, excellent service - My family of 3 did this tour with our guide Mimi. She texted via WhatsApp the day before with a screenshot confirming the pickup location and time so there was no question about where we would meet. On our tour, she provided insight to all locations we toured. She switched up the order so that we would beat crowds. She dropped us closer to entrances and then parked the car, a plus when traveling with a child & hauling their gear. Mimi also took many pictures of my family that we will treasure for years. I would do this tour again in a heartbeat. Thanks!
