Summary: We loved our tour guide Peter! He picked us up at our hotel on time and in a nice car. He's local to Daegu and answered millions of my questions about the city and Korea in general. He's very kind and looked after us well. I'm a fan of BTS and he added in a stop to see some murals at my special request. He took good photos of us along the way, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal with him at the traditional market. If you come to Daegu, ask for Peter and you will have a great itinerary!

Summary: Peter was a great guide. He picked us up right on time. He was knowledgeable about all the places we toured and Daegu in general. The Buddhist Temple was an amazing place both in its history and the scenery. The market was really fun with amazing food (particularly the donuts). The observatory had breathtaking views. The walk around the modern and medical areas was quite interesting.
