Reviews
It was such a pleasant trip! Everything was ontime and met the schedule well. Our guide June was not only directing us to the destinations but also delivering good storytelling about Korea's history. It really feels like an amazing experiential learning. She was also regularly checking the participants' condition since the weather was very hot. Overall the tour was satisfying and worth the price. Thank you!
If you want a glimpse into Korean history and culture from informative guides, then choose this one. Centuries of history summarised in a day, hard to do but Joon certainly did it. The cultural music and singing show was the highlight as the performers showed their amazing talent. Take cash for the market and if you haven't done the night market in Seoul then get dropped off at that station to experience craziness.
We had a wonderful day exploring the Korea Folk Village, Hwaseong Fortress, and Suwon Nammun Market. Joon is a great guide-- very knowledgeable and accommodating. We learned and have seen a lot of historical side of Korea during this tour. We highly recommend this tour!
I joined the Korean Folk Village and Suwon Hwaseong Fortress day tour, and was very fortunate to have Mr. Bian from Ktour story as our guide for the day. Although his Chinese pronunciation wasn't perfect, he was very proactive and worked hard to explain things to us, helping us understand Korean history and culture. When crossing the road, he made sure it was safe before letting us cross. He also did a great job with other small details. A responsible and attentive guide like this deserves our praise 👍
We are so glad we chose this tour. There were alot to see on this tour in a day and we definitely experienced a fantastic way to see Korea. Our tour guide June was fantastic throughout our tour. Our main highlight of this tour were the Gugak Experience. This overall was a fantastic 6 out of 5 Stars tour.
Very educational and enjoyable tour. Our guide Julia gave good information on the historical facts during our tour. The places were very traditional and different from the other modern tourist spots. The traditional performance at the theater was a nice bonus.
We are so grateful to our tour guide, the kind and beautiful Ms. Han Shanmei! Thanks to her guidance and lively, engaging explanations today, our family of four learned so much about Korean culture and ancient stories. The kids had a great time, especially during the performances at the Korean Folk Village, which we watched with great interest. The performers were very special and entertaining! 👏🏻 At Hwaseong Fortress in Suwon, the kids enjoyed trying archery. Today's day trip was perfect for the whole family! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
June is wonderful guide. her known knowledge of history is exceptional. i enjoyed the trip and I would recommend people who love to experience history and local culture.
The folk village in autumn is so beautiful and photogenic. Listen carefully to Sister Shanmei's detailed introduction (not boring at all! You must listen carefully!). I didn't have much time to take pictures because I had to eat. I strongly recommend allowing more time for this itinerary! I've been to Suwon Hwaseong Fortress before, but this time, with Sister Shanmei explaining and introducing everything, I can better understand Korean history. I feel like we could skip the market at the end and dedicate that time to the folk village, which would be perfect. Sister Shanmei 👍
Laura genuinely stands out as one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. She was incredibly attentive to our needs, stayed with us the entire time, and brought such warm, positive energy to the experience. What really impressed me was how clear and thorough her explanations were—it never felt rushed or surface-level. You can tell she really cares about what she does. I highly recommend her.
