The popular and essential tourist destinations of Hwaseong Fortress and the Korean Folk Village will be visited. You will be transferred to the Korean Folk Village by our car and enjoy looking around the traditional life of the Korean people. After lunch with traditional Korean food, you will be transferred to Suwon, which is the city of the Hwaseong Fortress, UNESCO heritage. Why not walk along the walls of Hwaseong Fortress and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the old town of Suwon.
Jay met the two of us on time on three days for three different tours in and around Seoul. He was knowledgeable and easy to get along with. His style was easy going and did not overwhelm as some guides do. He took us to some very good lunch locations that we liked. His choices of what to see were appropriate and I would recommend him to anybody. Thanks Jay George and Jennifer
Jay was helpful and knowledgeable .We enjoyed our tour with him
This was our first day in Korea, and it was a delightful way to start! The Folk Village is incredibly well designed. We really appreciated the life and times of early Korea. The traditional dances and arts also were entertaining. Our boys (13 and 11 yrs old) enjoyed playing the traditional games, and experimenting with former torture devices! Jay is a patient guide, and EXCELLENT with children. It helps that he is energetic and enthusiastic himself! We had a delicious Korean BBQ for lunch.THANK YOU!
