Reviews of our South Korea Small Group Tours
Our Small group travelers leave positive, first-hand reviews of South Korea tours.
Isabel | Traveled in September
Really enjoyed this whirlwind tour of a fascinating country. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helped us to understand the history of the country in terms of the places we visited. The tour was "full on" and if the itinerary had been a little less packed we might have been able to enjoy some "down time". Having said that, I'm not sure what I would have wanted to leave out. Very much enjoyed the different hikes ( the mountain being quite challenging). The DMZ was fascinating, temples beautiful, and the rice wine making not to be missed. A great trip!
Sandra | Traveled in September
I learned so much about the history of South Korea and saw some beautiful landscapes and temples. The guide went above and beyond expectations. I would definitely recommend Explore and will be using them again in the future. I would recommend that if possible Explore should add a trip to Jeju Island although I understand that this would extend the duration and add to the cost of the trip.
Sahana S | Traveled in July
I’ll admit, I was hesitant at first—joining a tour with total strangers in a foreign country? What if my group was awkward? Or worse, what if the guide was a total jerk? But all those worries vanished fast, because this turned out to be the best tour I’ve ever taken. I saw and learned so much, made genuine connections, and had an incredible amount of fun. It was the perfect introduction to a country I knew little about, and now I’m completely hooked. I’d recommend this tour to anyone with a love for Korean culture—or even just a curious spirit. This trip definitely made me want to book with G-Adventures again!
Yashoda P | Traveled in July
Korea was one of my favourites. The people of this tour were just amazing too and I'm sure I have made friends for life. First g adventure tour and wasn't disappointed. I will definitely be booking another trip with your team. Thank you
Marcy T | Traveled in June
My tour was the best I have ever experienced. Our guide Priya gave us the best introduction to South Korea ever, making sure we all had fun and taught all about the history of Korea, while making sure we had the best places to eat and see. This tour has opened my eyes to this amazing culture, giving us chances to experience unique and fun activities, and giving me memories I will cherish forever. When I look back on my tour, I will always remember fondly of the boat ride in Busan as we saw the fireworks in the backdrop of the setting sun, Karaoke night where we belted our hearts out to pop songs, our picnic by the Han River, and trying on Hanboks in Gyeongju. I truly lucked out with my group and with my fabulous guide, and I will never stop raving about it.
