Everything and more

Ho Jin was everything the other reviews said and more. He picked us up in a convenient location, great communication, was flexible and patient and knowledgeable. I wish we could have booked him another day! You won’t be disappointed!

A lovely afternoon with Dama

We had such a lovely tour with Dama besides the hot weather and my mom having some walking issues towards the end. Dama knew a lot of details and it was so interesting to learn about all this things. It was a perfect afternoon for us to check out the tourist spots of Busan. Thank you so much
