Tour with a history buff - Jonathon was an amazing guide on this tour. He was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. You can really tell how much he loves history and giving these tours. We had a lovely day at the folk village and the fortress. Very educational and fun. We did a lot but it never felt rushed.

Great tour - Wonderful tour and experience. Jonathan was an excellent guide, he took the time to answer our questions and gave us so much good information about the history of Korea and current times as well. The village was quite fun and the fortress was cool. Ending at the market was perfect to get snacks. Highly recommended

Amazing tour - This was a fantastic tour. Our guide, Cecilia, was extremely knowledgeable about Korean history and even broke down the kings of the josean era seen frequently in Korean dramas. Cecelia has a very welcoming personality and does a great job of giving you a preliminary tour and enough free time to explore any stop on your own. This is a tour I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Korea who want a glimpse of the country's past. Thank you Cecilia for the amazing tour!

Well valued excursion - Had a great trip with our guide Joon. I really liked the organization about the timing and excursions. Both guided tours and some free time in each location. Also compliments to Joon about keeping up the pace, because typically you end up just slowly walking through all the locations. Saw some great sights, learned about the history and tried some local delicacies. Overall, recommended.

Food, dance, and architecture experience - We had a lovely day visiting the town, the wall, and market. Gina, the tour guide, explained everything very clearly and made the atmosphere great. The town is amazing. I wish we had something like that back home. It is made of original buildings transported to this site. Good food. Immersive. Passionate workers. I could spend a whole day here. The wall was picturesque. We went on a sunny day in late November. The market was nice. Busy and full of things to try. I would recommend knowing where things are before arriving.
