Korean Folk Village and Suwon Hwaseong Fortress Day Tour(EG Tour)

Jennie was great!

Jennie was a great tour guide for this group. She was very accommodating for people in our group considering how walking is done on this tour. She also had a lot of fascinating facts about the fortress as well as the village we visited. The market was great to walk around as well as buying a few treats too!

Korean Folk Village

I was last there in 1974. It has greatly expanded and is even more informative as to the lives of Koreans hundreds of years ago.

Good peaceful tour away from Seoul crowds

Cecilia was an excellent tour guide. She was very attentive to everyone’s needs… The fort was the highlight of the tour for me. I wish we had more time there rather than the market or the village. If I ever got back to Seoul, I will visit it using the regular subway as now I’m more familiar with the area.

Good experience

I which it was more time in all the activities but overall was very good. It seems like many hours but is so much to see that is not enough time.

Educational tour

This was a great way to learn more about Korea and it's cultural. We found this tour educational and there was enough time to see everything. We even had time to dress up and have our picture taken. I considered wearing Hanbok but that store was incredibly busy and the "Photo shop" was very fast. Our guide Sherry was incredibly helpful and accommodating.

Suwon Korean Folk Village and Hwaseong Fortress

The weather was rainy and a little colder/windier than expected and some didn't prepare for this. Given the size of the group and the varying differences in personalities, I felt sympathy for our guide(s) trying to accommodate everyone's needs. It held up the rest of us who just wanted to get moving. (Especially problematic at Hwaseong Fortress). That being said, the tour itself is great. The 3 places we visited were all a fascinating glimpse into Korean history and I really enjoyed it. Our guide remained cheerful through the chaos, which I appreciate. I've had really positive experiences with Viator, highly recommend!

Good full day tour

Good tour so worth the day seeing the Korean Folk Village and Suwon Fortress. Wouldn’t bother going to these places without this tour. The meeting place is a little hard to find so make sure you have your directions and you won’t have any trouble. A good full day tour.

Korean living history

This tour was really nice. Would have been amazing if it didn't rain. Either way I enjoyed it and it is a good experience to get some beautiful history

Perfect!

It was an amazing tour, fun and informative. All the places were worth visiting. Our guides Cecilia and Jun did their job perfectly. Definitely recommended!👍🏻

Good sceneries and interesting tour

I really enjoyed the Korean Folk Village. I was able to capture many beautiful pictures and watch the show. I was really amazed by the drums and the performance from the girls. Guide was helpful but didn't leave much opportunity for people to get their pictures of scenery. I had to rush for them and lacked time on the end. I would honestly skip the market to get more time at the village, even more so because we eat lunch there. I would have needed to skip lunch to get maybe enough time... Also, my radio to hear the guide ran out of batteries and didn't replace it after I told her, ao I went half of the tour without hearing her much.

Organized tour guide!

The tour guide was very organized and hard working! The market at the end was a great way to end the tour!

It was a very cold day. ...

It was a very cold day. Personally, I think the guide spent too much time explaining about things, I would prefer more free time to explore. The dancing at the Folk Village was good. But no time to explore other things available

Awesome Tour guides

Helena our tour Director was awesome.. A caring person.. She’s knowledgeable about the tour. The Driver and another trainee tour guide were great too… They made us comfortable during the tour… HighLu recommended. Great job Helena & your team.👌..

Delightful!

We had a really great time. Our English speaking guide Laura was fun, funny and very informative. We didnt know much about the Hwaseong Fortress prior to this tour and left with some great background on the history of the area. We just happend to have a light bit of snow at the Korean folk park that added to the winter ambiance and the traditional market was quite fun to explore. Thank you for a wonderful day!

Amazing experience

Absolutely wonderful. All of the places we went was just impressive and our tour guide Helena was fun, and knowledgable. Thanks to her the tour was very pleasant.

Absolutely wonderful must do tour!

This is a must do tour if you are interested in the history of Korea, and if you are a particular lover of historical KDramas as the setting of the Fortress and the Korean Folk Village are easily recognizable from the shows. Our tour guide Sally was exceptional in every way. Thank you Sally for wonderful experience.

Korean Folk Village and Gwangmyeong Cave

The trip to Korean Folk Village and Gwangmyeong Cave was very fun and informative. It's my fifth time in Korea already but I there's still a lot to learn about it's history and culture. Our tour guide, Ha Kim, also made sure we were having fun. 😊

Unterhaltsam, lustig, spannend, wunderschön

Das Dorf gleicht der Joseon-Zeit, so wie es in der Vergangenheit war. Und die Festung von Suwon war sehr beeindruckend!.
