Awesome expdrience Awesome guide
Everything was open in the island. Most businesses were closed Little France and little Italy, but that did not really impact our experience. We were lucky to have a small group. The tour guide was very knowledgeable regularly asked the group if everyone was enjoying themselves. Meet up was easy.
This was a very full day trip and well worth the money. Janggun was a great guide! He did his best to keep us on schedule and be able to fit in everything while driving us safely to each location. We had a split language group, which was so impressive having Janggun switching between Mandarin, English, and Korean. This is a full tourist package with interesting things to look at and picture opportunities. You spend a bunch of time in the car, so bring music or take a nap (which I did multiple times). There isn't any context or description about any of the locations, which would have made this trip even better.
Jongkuk was great, very helpful and informative. The experience was smooth and fun even through the rainy weather and holiday crowd.
Super interesting trip, the timing was great, tha car was comfy, and the compagny agreable. I was i bit disappointed by the food, but it might just be bad luck on what I ordered.
Awesome Tour with Guide Jordan who explained everything and took our photos and checked on everyone. Will definitely recommend it to friends.
Me and my daughter took the day trip from Seoul, Myeongdong stop. Tino Kim was amazing, funny and helpful.. Kept us on track, and occupied. Each place well thought and selected. Food was delicious, for Tino and our driver ..A+++👏.. thank you for beautiful day…
Nami island and the rail bike were a lot of fun and there was so much to see. Ending with Petite France/Italian village was less eventful as it seems all the performances were closed due to the late time of the day. Our guide was respectful and considerate, and it seemed that she was not very comfortable with the English language which made the communication a bit challenging. Otherwise it was a nice trip.
Great tour overall! The rail bike was the best part - really scenic and fun on a hot summer day. Excellent tour guides as well.
This is a must destinations to go when visit Korea. Is easy to do booking through tripadvisor and the tour company will contact you for arrangement. Is as simple as it was stated on the website. Worth the money
