“Wonderful guide ”
It was a wonderful time with our tour guide Gina. She prepared magic tricks for the kids and explained many cultural/historical things to us while on the bus. Dylan planned and communicated with me very well and responded quickly. This is our first time using Gowithguide website and I think it was a big success. I highly recommend this tour guide!

“Dylan- great Busan guide!”
Dylan was very informative and entertaining , with a fine command of English. He guided us thru the Haedong Yonggunsa temple complex, the Gamcheon Village, and the Songdo Skywalk. He was always ready to take photos. At the end he got us back safely to our ship. A very memorable tour- we really liked Busan!

“First time use GoWithTaxi in Busan. Great Experience!”
Recommanded by ChatGPT, I used GoWithTaxi service for my cruise excursion in Busan. I am very pleased with the service. I was able to communication with the team through texting efficiently. Their response is prompt and clear. As it get closer to the travel date, I was told to use WhatsApp to communicate to the local team. One day before we arrive the port I received information on Busan contact and the drive info through WhatsApp. Our pickup time was 8am, but we were out early. I called Chuck through WhatsApp and was able to get Kang driver to pick us up early. Kang is a very good driver, safe and courteous. Even though he spoke limited English. He was able to communicate to us where and when to pick us up effectively. The itinerary was prearranged, so he follow the itinerary to take us places. The first stop is the temple. Unfortunately it was close due to event. I was able to call Chuck, my English spoken contact. We quickly change our itinerary for Chuck to communicate to Kang. I originally booked the 8 hours taxi ride for two people. We made change to 4 people a few days before the trip date. They were very accommodating and no extra cost! All four of us had a great time at Busan. Our limited time was efficiently used. Thanks to GoWithTaxi. Would definitely use the service again.

Don’t tip your guide in South Korea. Why? Because it carries a different cultural meaning than in other countries. In Korea, it can be taken as rude and offensive, as if you’re insulting the person by calling them poor. Instead, leave them a five star review and refer their services to other travelers.
