Full description

Take a day trip from Busan to explore Gyeongju with a professional tour guide.

See the culture of the Joseon dynasty on display at Yangdong Cultural Village. Admire traditional Korean houses at this UNESCO World Heritage site.

Admire Bulguksa, a Buddhist temple complex that comprises a series of wooden buildings on raised stone terraces. Visit the Daereungwon to see the Silla Dynasty Royal tombs.

Next to Daereungwon, there is the famous Hwangridan Street, which introduces the modern face of Gyeongju with various street food and trendy cafes. Admire the night view of the Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond which was part of the palace complex of ancient Silla.

For the one who travel in autumn, a season that paints this historic city in a palette of fiery reds, brilliant oranges, and golden yellows, do not miss out the autumn foliage tour option from late Oct to mid-Nov , just for the incredible fall colors.

The tour will then continue to the Gyeongju Eastern Historic Site Area. This UNESCO World Heritage site becomes even more enchanting during fall.But more than just sights, Gyeongju in autumn offers an atmosphere, a feeling. The rustling leaves beneath your feet, the stories echoing through centuries-old structures, and the crisp air filled with whispers of the past.

We had a great day even though it rained quite a lot in the afternoon. Still everything was well planned and our guide Lucy was so nice and took such good care of us. Had as lovely traditional Korean meal in Yangdon Village which was ordered in advance so we didn’t have to do any waiting. All the sites we went to were so interesting and absolutely beautiful. The night view of Donggung Palace and Wolji pond literally took our breath away. The only thing I think could have been done better was to recommend a café or give us better directions after we walked around at Daereungwon Royal Tombs. We were a bit lost and just ended up at a CU store 😅 Otherwise a great tour. Just ask for directions before you go off on your free time, that’s what we should have done 😉

The day was very full and we got back to the city after 9pm. However, it was worth it because of the number of locations visited and the lunch in the middle which makes you feel like a king or queen. The last stop was amazing. Also, the guide, Jiwon, was very knowledgeable and passionate about her job, which made the experience even better

We visited so many things, all the sites were absolutely gorgeous (we all struggled to pick a favourite at the end) and the guides Subin and Victoria were absolutely fantastic. They were so knowledgeable, made the visits interactive and flexible. They were also so kind (Subin even helped me figure out how to get to my destination for the next day). 100% would recommend! :)
