“We took this excursion during a stop in Busan on the Diamond Princess. Luke was our tour guide for the day, there was excellent communication between the tour company and me before the day of the tour. We met Luke at the exit of the cruise terminal at the designated time and he took us in an air conditioned mini van all around Busan. Luke had spent time in Perth so his English was excellent. When I booked the tour it was called small group day tour so I thought there would be others with us but it was just the three of us! Really enjoyed our time in Busan.…”

“Mr Park, our driver was very helpful and flexible. We have customized the tour, as we had other locations we wanted to see. Mr Park explained what could be done, in the limited amount of time we had and given the geographical distribution of those attractions. He strived to show us the most locations, and he even stopped at one beautiful beach that we did not have included, but which was close by. Mr Park also accompanied us and took pictures. It was a very enjoyable trip! Highly recommended!!”
