Built along the coast, Petite France is a French themed village, with beautifully constructed french architecture. Petite France is also a popular drama filming site which was featured in many shows such as "Running Man" and "You Who Came From the Stars".

This tour is exceptional, the only reason i gave it 4 stars is because the sites are so good that you want to spend an extra hour at each. An extra 30-60 minutes at little france and an extra 60 minutes at Nami island would have been perfect.
Thank you for choosing SA Tour for your South Korean trip. We are glad to hear that you have enjoyed our tour, please keep us in mind when you book your next trip!
It was a good tour. Very well arranged. Bryan was a good guide. He would explain to us in detail how best to cover every place. He suggested a good and cheap place for lunch for Korean BBQ. It was good too!
Thank you for choosing SA Tour for your journey in South Korea. We are very happy you had a great experience and we look forward to welcoming you back soon.
Tour was good,however there was only one drop off point a long way from our hotel.Joe our tour guide tried to stop a taxi without success.He then told us it is too hard to ride a taxi as it is New Year Eve.He then suggested that we take the train metro.We are from Australia and don’t speak the language or know how the train system works.A young lady came to our rescue.She noticed that we were lost and confused.She booked a taxi for us online.This worked and we got home .Why couldn’t Joe done this for us ? We are very disappointed with his poor service..His job is to ensure that the customers get home safely and are not left on the street in a strange city.
Dear Valued Customer, Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your tour. We are glad to hear that you found the tour itself to be good, but we sincerely regret the difficulties you experienced returning to your hotel afterward. We have reviewed your concerns and would like to provide some clarification based on the situation: 1. Designated Drop-off Points: We would like to clarify that our tour itineraries only have one fixed drop-off location, which is clearly stated on the booking platform and the product page. 2. Assistance from Our Guide Joe: According to our records and the guide's report, Joe made a sincere effort to assist by attempting to hail a taxi on the street. However, as it was New Year's Eve, the demand for taxis was exceptionally high. Joe suggested the Metro as a reliable alternative to ensure you weren't stuck, as navigating public transport is often the most efficient way to travel during peak holiday celebrations. Regardless of the circumstances, we are very sorry for the stress and confusion you felt in a foreign city. We have shared your feedback with our management team to review our SOPs for holiday periods. Thank you again for your input. We value your safety and experience, and we hope to have the chance to provide you with a smoother journey in the future.
Thanks to our tour guide Josh who has planned the timing well and rearranged the schedule for us and we managed to see all four places. Appreciated for the group photo taken and some food sampling by Josh. Loved the Nami Island and it was the best of all places!
It was a very smooth transition from station to station today. Our tour guide Zero was very attentive and always ready to help with taking a photo or two. The recommended lunch place was delicious.
Apart from Alex being handsome, he is friendly, attentive & take good care of us especially during lunchtime. Overall, it was a smooth & enjoyable trip.
Nana is a great guide. She is friendly, attentive and doing her best for everyone. Highly recommended her.
We had a great time during the tour. We really enjoyed the time we spent in Nami Island. Jesse is an awesome tour guide!
Very nice tour. Our tour guide K is very funny making the tour very exciting. I strongly suggest this tour especially the Nami island. The only problem was the only 1 drop off location making it hard to go back to our hotel. I strongly suggest that drop off location should have been the same as the pick up location. Although our tour guide helped us picked up a taxi. Other than that, the tour is well worth.
Very convenient pick up from Hotel the Desiger. Pace and timing is good, guide Zero is very friendly and patient, we enjoyed the tour v much. Hope we had more time in Nami Island.
