Things to do in Hwaseong Palace

Daniel was so kind and so informative with funny and touching stories for us throughout the day. Lovely guide, lovely day and lovely company. The fortress and folk performance were awesome to see. The Suwon Starfield library and the cave was fun to end the day with. Thank you Daniel!!!

We had Nicole for our half day tour of Suwon and she was amazing! She was so insightful about the history and explaining the different areas or stories. She was so sociable, fun, easy to talk to, and was interested to know where we came from and share what she knew, especially about different areas and what to look out for. We were lucky to have a private tour and would absolutely recommend this tour as they have given my partner and I a great understanding of the history of the Hwaseong fortress and palace and gave us an amazing start to our trip!

Thank you to Mr Ren our tour guide for making this trips so memorable, his energy was infection and he went above and beyond to make sure everyone in the group was comfortable and having a good time.

Top days of our trip to Seoul, no doubt! We went to the Library, then to the Market, then to the Fortress and finally to the Folk Village. Our guide, Johan, changed the intinerary a little bit in order to avoid the heat. What a good call. Johan is also one of the nicest guys on Earth. He drove us and explained us some things about each place, but also gave us time to enjoy ourselves there (which we appreciate). The performance with the led lights in the Folk Village was amazing. Try to watch it (it’s at night) if you can. Slow Korea has been a very good experience for us. They deserve +100 reviews with 5 stars IMO 👏🏼👏🏼

We have a wonderful guide and driver Marcos. His car is clean and aircon is powerful during this summer trip. He will personally explain the history and spoke good english. He also bring us to nice Korean Fried Chicken in Suwon. We have wonderful time and learn a lot from this tour.

TG and the tour group were amazing. everyone’s friendly, easy to get along with even as a solo traveller. he brought us to see green cherry blossom, royal cherry blossom and the standard ones. lunch recommendation tasted great. best part of my trip so far. TG will accommodate to the group and helped us take photos. rly enjoyed the tour! cherry blossom wise the standard ones mostly fell, the royal/green ones haven’t fully bloomed yet, so first week of April or end Apr might be better to see either at its peak. overall will recommend! like it better than the other tour I booked (also klook, also tour story, but different guide)

Very good day trip, enthusiastic tour guide from EG explaining Korean culture

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.

Enjoyed the tour. Was debated if I should go on my own but decided to go on this for convenience. Turned out to be a small group of under 10 pax so it was great! Our guide, Richard was attentive & friendly & as I was on my own, he volunteered to take many pictures for me. I also told him I’m learning Korean & he gladly spoke Korean to me so I could practice. The tour’s a good pace (expect a lot of walking tho!) & Richard also shared a lot of history about the places. Highly recommend!
