Wolmido tours

This time, due to the small number of participants, only our group of five friends signed up for the tour. The travel agency initially asked if we wanted to switch to another Chinese-speaking tour, but we felt an English-speaking tour would be fine. So, the travel agency arranged for a Korean driver who spoke basic English to pick us up from our hotel and take our group of five to the activities. The entire travel experience was simply delightful and unforgettable. I must emphasize that the driver was incredibly friendly and attentive. Our luggage was a bit heavy, and he proactively helped us carry it. He recommended local snacks to us 😋. Knowing we didn't speak Korean, he meticulously clarified details with staff at each attraction and guided us to the correct entrances. For example, when we went luge riding, he accompanied us up the mountain, guided us through putting on safety gear, and showed us how to choose our luge track. Additionally, during meal times, the driver carefully asked the restaurant owner about the barbecue steps and even cooked for us himself, allowing us to savor authentic local cuisine. Therefore, I sincerely want to thank the driver for making our trip so enriching 🫶🏻🫶🏻🥹. Furthermore, we were extremely satisfied with the itinerary and attraction arrangements. It felt like transitioning from a city walk in Seoul to a local tour exploring mountains and rivers. Hwagae Garden was beautiful; there were no other visitors in the early stages of our visit, so we had the entire place to ourselves and could take photos everywhere. Although there was an extra charge to take the monorail up to Hwagae Mountain Skywalk, the scenery was breathtaking. With blue skies and white clouds, walking on the skywalk offered panoramic views of the countryside and a glimpse of the North Korean border in the distance. The locals were also very friendly; even with the language barrier, they actively tried to communicate with us. The monorail ride was also worthwhile, like a slow roller coaster with butterflies fluttering around (this is true, there were many butterflies 🦋), offering beautiful scenery along the way. Gyodong Yongri Market is a small market with a few shops selling traditional local snacks that are hard to find in Seoul. They offered samples to visitors without any pressure to buy. The Jeju yuzu rice crackers recommended by the driver were delicious and highly recommended for purchase! Regarding the food, although the quality was just average, being able to personally experience the local barbecue culture and taste authentic local dishes being prepared was worth trying. The driver's cooking skills were excellent; it was my first time tasting such delicious instant noodles 🥹😋. I really want to ask him for his cooking tips. The luge ride was really exciting and fun, but unfortunately, the itinerary only included one ride. We had to pay extra to ride it two or three times. It was clear that the entire trip was a local tour, with only locals and no other foreign tourists. I really liked this aspect, as it allowed us to truly experience the local culture and the simple, rustic charm of the countryside. There were also very few people at the luge, so there was no waiting in line, and we were able to ride twice quickly. Finally, I want to sincerely thank the driver again. His attentiveness and dedication created an unforgettable memory for our group of five. I truly thank the driver (I hope he sees this review) for silently and diligently taking care of us. Driver, thank you so much! 🫶🏻

We had a wonderful day with Edward! Our is small group of 8 traveled in a comfortable private van. We had so much fun doing the luge, feeding the seagulls, and exploring the Fairy Tale street in Chinatown. Edward was very patient and helped us take many great photos. He also recommended a delicious noodle restaurant for lunch. Highly recommended

Driver/guide, Kim was very professional and attentive with all his tour arrangements, he queued with us for the rail bike and helped take pictures for us when we busy riding. Appreciate and thankful for his thoughtfulness to re park his car nearer to the site so that we have less walking after the ride.

I'm truly satisfied! This is the first time I've seen a tour with such a great price, yet such a rich and high-quality itinerary. The tour guide, in particular, was incredibly kind and thoughtful. 10 out of 10 for quality!

Appreciate having Sky to guide us through the tour! Nice to be away from busy city area to enjoy some activities, other than shopping! Sky has been very welcoming, funny and accomodating throughout! 🙏🏻

The tour operator was great. Thanks again to Dennis (tour guide) and our Korean Driver for accomodating our requests. Mr. Andrew answered all lf my queries clearly and everything was good. All of them were all nice and patient.

Two days before departure, I received an email from the local company informing me that my arrival would be postponed for one day. I immediately replied that it was OK, but strangely it was not a notification from klook. I took the initiative to ask klook customer service, and the reply was that I wanted to ask. It was strange, so I had to ask three more questions myself. It took a whole day to confirm the rescheduling. Every day when traveling abroad is precious. It was a bit disappointing to have only 2 days notice of the temporary change of time, leaving the guests confused to confirm on their own. The two places we visited during the itinerary were good for flower viewing, but I didn’t like the museum part that much. There are many places to take pictures in Chinatown, but you have to queue up for every restaurant. The outlet is a big place with many brands and restaurants, which is good. The tour guide politely explained the time and place clearly. The 7-passenger car accommodated a total of 5 of us and was comfortable. The drive from point to point is not long, with the longest fruit section being 50 minutes. Arranged

The luge ride was a lot of fun! First, you take the cable car up, and the scenery is also beautiful. Along the way, there are several cameras that take photos of your luge ride. You can print one photo, and the rest can be downloaded. 👍 Our guide said it's available all year round unless there's severe wind or rain. We came in June, and the weather was great. The hillsides were covered in beautiful flowers. In winter, the hillsides are covered in snow. The Hanjeongsik (Korean set meal) was also wonderful, allowing us to experience various Korean side dishes. The Choyang Textile Cafe has beautiful decor, and their famous salt bread, coffee, and desserts are all excellent. The handkerchief stamping experience was also fun, but it's only 20 minutes, so everyone needs to be quick, haha. You can take it home as a souvenir. 😄 Many thanks to our guide today, Sammi, she was great!
