  • South Korea in Classic: From Seoul to Jeju Island (Private Tailored) reviewer 1
    · October 12th, 2024
    I loved the hotels They had beautiful views. Their breakfast was great. Our last stay in Seoul we were on 5th floor so I wished we were a bit higher. And I think next time I’d like to try variety of food.

    We just finished our amazing 9-day private tour "From Seoul to Jeju Island" arranged by Odynovo, and it was truly a wonderful experience! Huge thanks to Odynovo for this unforgettable journey. Before the trip, we worked with travel expert xxx, who customized the itinerary for us. His responses were incredibly prompt, providing professional support and answers throughout. He adjusted the plan according to our needs, saving us a lot of time and money in the process. The hotels were very comfortable, clean, and well-equipped. Especially the hotel in Jeju Island with a stunning sea view. The transportation, vehicles, drivers, and guides were also excellent. The vehicles were clean and comfortable, the drivers were friendly and highly skilled, making us feel very safe. Our guide was knowledgeable and provided in-depth information about the history and culture of each place we visited. The entire tour was very affordable, especially considering the high-quality, personalized service we received. Many of the attractions were truly worth it, such as Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul and Seongsan Ilchulbong on Jeju Island. Each location left us in awe. Haedong Yonggungsa Temple in Busan was particularly breathtaking with its stunning coastal views. We also enjoyed a variety of delicious local foods, especially the traditional snacks at Gwangjang Market. One highlight was watching the mask dance performance at Hahoe Folk Village in Andong, which was an enriching cultural experience. Overall, this trip not only allowed us to see the beautiful sights and culture of South Korea but also experience Odynovo's professional and attentive service. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore South Korea!

    Overall planning was great ( flights, hotel, pick up from the airport, guide). Few areas for improvement would be knowledgeable updates on tourist visa information, distance between locations were widely miscalculated and generally took an hour or more to get to our destinations between cities, the number of stops between drives was too frequent also causing delays, location of hotels wasn’t in the best locations (generally out of the way) and it would have been helpful to let us know we would be responsible for our tour guides lunch and snacks and that we would be taking lunch with them for all our lunches.
