Review for: Hwaseong Fortress+Haenggung+ Gwangmyeong Cave+Starfield library

Our tour guide Jeff is a very nice person, who took care of everyone well until the end. He even helped us carrying our baby because some of the places were really tough to track with 2 little babies. In additional, the other tourists were all very nice to a family who has little children, so we feilt a big relief during the visiting. Kindly reminder, if you are traveling with little babies, you might want to talk to your guide about the details of your trip before visiting there. other than that, I think it was quite worthy.

Everything was great! Visiting Suwon was an awesome experience, and Philip was such a nice guide. The explanations were interesting. The final show at the Korean Folk Village was incredible. Highly recommend! ​The 3 French girls 🇫🇷✨

Our family of four had a great day on this excursion! It combined just enough sights/activities to fill the day in a meaningful way, but not exhaust us. PHILIP, our guide, was knowledgeable, funny, kind and very patient with our group. Very good about communicating where and when we needed to meet up and was helpful and answered all of questions!

it is a great one day itinerary if you are short on time and want to complete a lot of things in one day like myself. The Tour guide shared the in-depth knowledge about the past of South Korea, which contributed a lot in my knowledge. It is always good to know about the history of some place to understand better about its present and relate to it. Glad I made it on the Tour. The ride was very comfortable. The martial art and the folk dance was amazing. I wish to go back and visit Suwon at my own pace someday in future.

Tour guide is friendly and explains things well. As the coverage of each attractions is good and a lot, it may leave a slightly shorter time for the tourists to experience each site and have to leave for the next site. Overall it is a good experience for first timer in terms of traditional korean culture and history. Thanks Jeff for taking good care of us during this trip!

Review for: Hwaseong Fortress+Hanggung+Wawoojeongsa Temple+Starfield Library

The tour was great, thou i wish we had more time at Suwon Starfields Library, so that we can look around the stores, when we reach the place, i went straight to the Library part to take some pictures, and had lunch after and i didnt finish my sandwich , always in a hurry to go back to given time. Our Tour guide Richard was ok and a patient person, when we went to the w. temple, due to many spots to talk pictures i was late in going back to the bus ( still lacking of time to go around ). Thou it was quite tiring going up and down the stairs of the hwaseong fortress, it was satisfying to look at new places in Korea. Till next time will look for other places to go to with Klook

The tour was a great day out to Suwon and surroundings. Philip was our guide and he was super informative with historical details and has a great sense of humour. He spoke perfect English and made me laugh with his humour. Thank you Philip!

this was a great easy to enjoy tour with a fantastic guide. I really enjoyed it and highly recommend the archery as part of the tour as it was 10 arrows for 3000 won. when going to Suwon Coex mall I recommend doing some research ahead of time on what is there. if you know what you are doing you have time to get things done and have lunch. if you just wonder you might spot things to late. on the top floor there was an activity/games centre of some kind, might be worth a look when you are there or if you go back.

for our trip our tour guide was phillip, he was very informative, funny, and helpful! truly the best! we started at Hwaseong Fortress where he knew so much info about the history of the fortress as well as meanings for all the decor and design. then we went to haenggung and discovered more korean history of King Jeongjo. we also visited starfield in suwon where we shopped and visited the famous library, the entire time phillip was educating us about every area. at starfield we even got to try a local korean restaurant with his recommendation the meat and kimchi jigae was so delicious!! lastly we got to learn more about historic housing and daily life at the korean folk village ending with live performances of traditional music. overall it was an amazing experience, very worth the price 🙂‍↕️😊💗👍
