This trip's transportation was very punctual. The driver would text us via Kakao before sending a picture of the car and telling us where and what time he'd pick us up. It was great! We woke up early and were ready to go (it was very cold, rainy, and windy, but we still went). When the driver arrived, he had us get in and said, "Good morning! Where are you from?" We answered, "Thailand." The driver joked that he had picked up people from Thailand and would be picking up two more people from Taipei today. After saying that, we set off from Hongdae to Myeongdong. After picking them up, we went straight to Suwon according to the plan. The first stop was the Starfield Library. I don't know how the driver drove, but I fell asleep as soon as the car started, so I guess he drove well. When we arrived, the mall wasn't open yet. The driver told us it was on the 4th floor and to go up. And the next stop was Chicken Street (we were so confused and blamed the app for translating it wrong). We went to eat fried chicken! We ordered two dishes, one regular fried and one with Korean sauce. And I just realized now that "whole chicken" means a whole chicken. It came as one chicken, but divided into two types. We finished eating, a bit confused, but it was a lot, so we had to take some back. The next place was a palace. I don't remember the name, but the bathroom was great. They let us into the palace, but we just went to the bathroom because it was cold. But we went into the palace for a bit. I don't remember how much it cost to enter. And the last stop was Son Jae's house. It wasn't hard to find. The driver gave directions. The driver was great. He was both a driver and a guide. I'm impressed. This trip is over!

I enjoyed this trip very much, the tour was well paced and visited very interesting destinations. Thistour was also very unique as our tour guide Peter Pan was very well-informed about the history of Korea and is an amazing story teller. It feels as if I have time travelled back to the Joseon era as he explained about the place and connected the dots for us. Definitely will recommend this tour for those who wants to not just sight see but to immerse themselves in the experience. Plus point Peter is really good at taking photos (100 points!)

We really enjoyed our tour with Peter Pan. He was very informative and engaging. Something we really appreciate is that he didn't rush us. He would patiently wait for us to catch up at our own pace.
