The tour guide is very attentive! Everland is really worth the ticket price! Lunch tickets can be redeemed at your favorite restaurants! It is recommended that you download the Everland app before departure to study how to make reservations. Basically, all amusement facilities in the park require reservations! The food in the restaurant is delicious! If you come in winter, it is recommended to wear more clothes, as it will get very cold in the afternoon and evening!

Our tour guide Yunja is very accomodating and commendable. I learned a lot about Korea’s culture! Yay! In spite of the heavy snow she ensures everyone is safe yet still enjoying the scenery Korea has to offer. Very solo traveler friendly and looks after each tourist whether its a family group or couple, group of friends or colleagues. Hope klook will offer more tour experiences with Yunja leading the feat. Soon I’ll bring my parents and will definitely book thia tour again. Thank you Yunju and Klook!

Thank you very much Stephen. The itinerary was clearly explained in the car and instructions were given to download the Everland APP. When queuing up to collect tickets, we also checked one by one to see if there were any problems.

Amazing and insightful trip! Our tour guide, Cecilia was really friendly and helpful during the trip. She was able to provide us with the clear history of each site. She cares for the wellbeing of all of us and also engages in small talks with us. During the Suwon Fortress walk, the ground was super slippery and steep as it snowed the previous day. She made sure to check and ensure everyone of us were okay and was flexible enough for some of us to sit out instead. Love it!

A condensed version of an old Korean village in a natural setting with traditional performances and activities. For the very young, there is a free admission outdoor amusement park with all the usual kiddy rides.
