This was my first trip to Korea, and the Golden Route tour gave me everything I hoped for. From the royal tombs in Gongju to the bustling markets of Busan, every stop added something special. I liked that we also had free time to explore on.. our own. Gyeongju’s temples and ancient sites were impressive, and Mt. Sorak’s hiking trails were the perfect way to end the trip. The group was friendly, the guide was attentive, and transportation was smooth. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to see the highlights of Korea. Read full review

Excellent guide and beautiful destinations, highly recommend.

I loved every moment of this Golden Route journey. The guide was very professional and made history come alive at places like Gongju fortress and the Confucian schools of Andong. Suncheon’s gardens were peaceful and colorful, and Yeosu ga..ve us spectacular sea views. The itinerary balanced culture, history, and nature perfectly. Hotels were comfortable and transport was punctual. The meals offered variety, and I especially enjoyed Jeonju’s bibimbap. Eight days felt like the right amount of time to see Korea’s diversity.

This tour exceeded all expectations. Gongju and Buyeo impressed me with their historical ruins. Gwangju was full of art and culture. Suncheon and Yeosu provided beautiful coastal and garden scenery. I loved the atmosphere in Jeonju Hanok Vi..llage and enjoyed shopping for souvenirs there. Busan had a great mix of modern attractions and beaches. Gyeongju’s Bulguksa Temple was one of the highlights. The mountain scenery near Pyeongchang and Mt. Sorak was a wonderful ending. The hotels were comfortable, and our guide was excellent.
