We had a great experience in Jangtaesan and Jeonju. We’re not expected that we will had a little hiking but it worth after you see the scenery. Our tour leader was Jun, he is very nicely and helpful, his english very fluently, it was nice to have chit chat with him. Thank you so much.

Our tour leader, Catherine, was very friendly and managed the time well. Choosing to depart on Monday avoided the potential weekend traffic congestion. The places we visited on this trip were all beautiful scenery and, unlike the hustle and bustle of Seoul, it was a great place for a retreat.

Our tour guide, Cui Cui, was friendly and funny, explaining the details of the trip's attractions in both English and Chinese. We especially appreciated the repeated reminders about the meeting time. We hope to join another KKlook local tour next time! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Had a great time during the tour as a solo traveller. Catherine, our tourguide is very helpful. May not have witnessed the foliage this year, but surely the experience is worth it.

We went with 3 people on this tour, and Yohan was the tour guide. Everything was perfect: always on time, the 7-seater car was new and clean, the ride was safe, the scenery was beautiful, and Jangtaesan is truly a place you shouldn't miss (there are a lot of locals coming here, not too crowded like tourist spots). Yohan accompanied us as a real seonsangnim leading the whole class on an outing (haha), and also as a driver-tourguide-photographer-local food reviewer!! He even sent all the naver map links to the restaurants during the tour (even when we ended the trip late due to traffic jam, he also sent us the dinner options near our drop-off point). I really recommend you to join this E-Autumn tour, the cost is completely worth it. The only downside seems to be that the leaves haven't turned yellow and red yet (because the weather this year the leaves turned late, I wish I came here 2 weeks later then everything would be perfect 😅).

I did this tour today alone and I would say it’s worth it! Our guide, Yohan, spoke three languages so fluently and Mr. Park, our driver was very good at getting us to places quickly plus using more convenient routes! Yohan also explained each step of the way pretty well! I saw him speak with everyone one on one too hehe. First, we went to Jangtaesan where the view was absolutely beautiful and the hike up to the top is easy enough for anyone. However, I got lost going on my way down so please stick with someone from the group when going down! Jeonju Hanok Village was pretty and had a lot of amazing photo zones! I think 3 hours to explore the village and even the outskirts was enough! I recommend to buy choco pie from PNB, eat bibimbap in the Nambu Market, go to Mashirange cafe, and get a limited edition Jeonju Choonsik plush from Kakao Friends :) Anyway, I had a good time but the bus rides are extremely long so please pack a charger chord and TONS of water (which I failed to do both)!
