Customer reviews and what they say

The most important thing we can do to improve our service is listen to what our customers have to say, which is why you can now read their comments unedited on our website.

Upon returning from Southeast Asia all our clients are sent a review form and here you can see what they are saying about their experience of travel to the region and of the service we offered both during the trip planning process and in the build-up to the trip.

I needed a solo road trip suitable for an older person and Sora Jang in Brisbane and your ground people in Korea accommodated my request beautifully.

Sora Jang

Sora spent many hours designing my tour to suit my needs as an elderly traveller. At the last minute I asked if my 18 year old grandson could be included which meant additional hotel bookings 7 times plus 2 additional internal plane flights. This was all done smoothly and quickly.

Accommodation
★★★★★

no problems anywhere. Four Points by Sheraton in Myeondong, Seoul, where we stayed 8 nights was excellent. The Andong hotel was the least comfortable. The Hanok accommodation on the floor in Gyeongju was interesting. Two nights was enough though!

We are luck enough to have traveled quite frequently over the years. This was the first time we have used Inside Asia and we were very impressed. The service from start to finish was excellent. Our contact (Rhian) helped us plan the trip and kept in touch throughout. Overall the organisation was very sleek and efficient.

Simona provided in-depth expertise reliably and fast and no question/query was too much.

Accommodation
★★★★

As a group of 3 adults, a spacious accommodation was more important to us than we were aware of. The triple rooms in the OceanCruise hotel in Sokcho and the Gloucester on Jeju were a bit too small for us. The suits in the NineTree and Felix by STX and the Novotel were spot on. Gloucester hotel on Jeju was the "odd one out" compared to all other hotels as it has a very "tourist" character and the breakfast buffet was at a much lower standard than at all other hotels.

Aaron Boothe

Aaron put together an itinerary for us that worked well on paper and in the real world. He consulted us as we made our plans and changed things when we asked for that - very little, since the first draft looked so good.

Accommodation
★★★★

Seoul 9 Brick: loved it; well-equipped room in an interesting part of the city, with excellent shops and restaurants nearby. Unfortunately, the roof terrace bar was closed when we were staying. *****

Sokcho Sea Cruise Hotel: business hotel, lacking character; AC switched off throughout the hotel but they brought us a fan when we asked; impressive breakfast buffet; most of Sokcho felt a bit run-down, so I don't think we were missing out on another, better, hotel; and Sokcho is an excellent base for the Seoraksan National Park, which was amazing. ***

Gyeongju Si Eun Jae Hanok Hotel: traditional and just right for the "museum without walls"; owner was friendly, very keen to chat, and helpful throughout our stay. *****

Busan Good Ol' Days Hotel: very spacious and comfortable; some retro gimmicks work well e.g. record player; some don't - the filter coffee just didn't do anything for us; but the coffee place downstairs is excellent and the breakfast basket was good; good location with multiple shops and restaurants nearby. *****

Jeju Island SNOB Boutique Stay: OK but fairly basic and felt off-season; spacious room; breakfast didn't look great so we ate out.
***

Seoul Ryse Autograph: lovely hotel, right next to 9 Brick; they were happy to let us store luggage with them while we travelled the country and on our last day; same great location as 9 Brick; superb breakfast. *****

Hoi An accommodation a bit noisy - perhaps an upgraded room would have been better ... otherwise hotel (with spa package) was excellent
