Our tour guide, June, was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly and made us feel comfortable from the start. Her tour in English was excellent, detailed, engaging and easy to understand. Highly recommend!
The Korean Folk Village was great. Suwon Hwaseong Fortress was a little disappointing - maybe you need to see it at night. Tour guide Jenny was good and explained the sites well. I would still recommend this tour though.
Was a great tour! Both Cecilia and 韩善美 were wonderful in explaining the culture, history, and very knowledgeable + experts in their domain. We did the tour in both English and Chinese, very clear in communication.
