Great tour - What a great tour! The Korean Folk Village is not an actual village where people live but rather more like a theme park/ tourist attraction. However it was really interesting to learn about how people lived during the Chosun Dynasty. The music performance was very nice. The Suwon Hwaesong Fortress was impressive to see and walk around. Our tour guide, Johnathan had excellent stories to tell about the history of the place. Our last stop at the market was very delicious. We tried hotteok, spicy fishcake, a sausage, and a sweet rice drink. Our tour guide was so helpful and had great recommendations! This tour is definitely worth it! Thank you Johnathan!

5 Stars! Laura is Great!! - Laura was our knowledgeable guide and she did a Great Job in the extreme heat. I really enjoyed the tour learning about the old days in Korea. We walked along the Fortress wall and took refuge from the heat in the building over the stream. Overall 5 Star Experience.

Must Attend Tour in Seoul! - The views were amazing, but our guides Cecilia and Shan Mai were even better. Cecilia, our English tour guide, gave the best information on every location, took the best pictures and made sure we constantly stayed cool in the extreme heat. If you’re visiting, take this tour and ask if you can have her as the guide.
