Day trip to Suwom - Travis, our tour guide, was wonderful. He made sure we had a great time. He speaks English very well which was a big plus. He was always happy to take our group pictures. He was always clear on how much time we have and when to meet back in the bus. He shared a lot of information for each stop and recommended a good place to eat for lunch. Overall, he made our trip enjoyable!

Singing in the rain - It was raining but it was still nice looking the old culture and history of Korean sites. Our tour guide Travis was attentive and told us details of the tour places and also great place for lunch.

Enjoy! - Travis guides are great! Also give restaurant and shopping advice! And I think that the time to visit each of the attractions is enough, not too fast, highly recommended! But pay attention to many ways.

Gwangmyeong Cave is a must visit - Steven is nice and taking care of the group well. Suwon - very straight forward view Nammum market - local market selling clothes + cooking utensil and few stall of snack/foods Gwangmyeong cave - very structured and worth to visit. Need some trekking. Also a lot of stairs to go down to the cave but manageable. Avoid wearing high heels. Sport shoe or cover shoes recommended. Stairfiled library - a library in a mid range shopping mall.
