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.

Every time I visit Seoul, I join this tour to see the pandas because it's the only way to get to the park before it opens. The vehicle is comfortable, and I'll definitely join again next time.

I really enjoyed the trip especially our tour guide Peter Pan who not only supported us during the trip but also shared with us a lot about Korean culture and history which made me understand more about the place I was. so amazing and peaceful, just a bit sunny and hot as it was summer.

Peter Pan, our guide for the day, was excellent and professional. Clear explanation of historical events. The stop at Starfield could be slightly longer to cater time for queuing for lunch. Overall, very good experience!

Excellent experience from start to finish. The booking process was simple, convenient, and hassle-free. Everything was clearly explained, and the vouchers were easy to use. The activity matched the description, and the overall experience exceeded expectations. Great value for money and a reliable platform for travel bookings. Highly recommended and will definitely use Klook again for future trips.

We travelled from Scotland and even though we've been to Korea before this is one place that we havent visited! Simon was very enthusiastic and kept the suspense when telling the stories that made you want to run to the next part to find out what happens next! Although there was alot of walking involved, Simon was very accommodating to my parents who had to take their time and we still were able to view everything and weren't rushed for time. We really enjoyed today, would easily recommend this to anyone looking to visit Suwon.

Great, we wouldn't have been able to do this tour on our own. Plus, the show at the Korean village was beautiful, especially the Gayageum performance.
