Gyeonggi Tour Reviews
Helen R.
“Great guide and super day out”
We really enjoyed our day out with Kwan to the Folk Village and Suwon Fortress. Kwan picked us up at the expected time and drove us to the Folk village first. Here we explored the various different styles of Korean houses and learnt about life in Korea in the past. After this, Kwan drove us to Suwon to explore the Fortress and we walked along its walls, climbing to the top of a hill for an amazing view over the city. Afterwards, Kwan took us for a drink and cake in a lovely little cafe, before ordering a taxi to take us back to our car. This was a great way to end our trip to Seoul and we very much enjoyed Kwan's company and his knowledge of the places we visited.

Kwan J.
Thank you so much, Helen, for your wonderful review. It was truly my great pleasure spending the day with both of you at the Folk Village and Suwon Hwaseong. I’m delighted to hear you enjoyed the experience and the time we shared together. I hope you’ll visit Korea again, and next time I’d love to spend a little longer with you exploring even more of Seoul and beyond. Wishing you both all the best until then.

“ Excellent introduction to Korea, its past, its present and its challenges”
I had the chance of following Andy for 2 days: we went to the museum where he gave me a comprehensive briefing on Korea's past. We then drove to the Royal Palace and to the Bukchon Village. While I was comfortably seated in his car, he spoke about Korea's present and, the next day, when we visited the DMZ, he spoke about the war and the challenges Korea is facing today. He even prepared a brochure with the most relevant facts to look up and to refer to. I had an issue with my cellphone's internet connection and Andy was very helpful in calming me down and in trying to find a solution.

Andy P.
Thank you for your kind words. It was truly a pleasure spending those days with you and sharing this journey together. I’m glad the experience came together in a meaningful way for you. I hope the materials will bring back good memories of your time in Korea. Wishing you a wonderful rest of your travels. Warm regards, Andy

“Fascinating visit to the DMZ with Andy ”
Four of us were on a cruise ship docked at Incheon and organised the day trip to the DMZ on gowithguide several months in advance. Andy was waiting in the cruise ship terminal when we disembarked and had his luxurious people carrier parked close by. After a short drive, we arrived at the DMZ, visited tunnel number 3, the observation tower and the Gloucester Regiment memorial. Andy was good company, informative and with a good sense of humour. He got us back to the dock in plenty time for our departure and we would certainly recommend him to anyone planning a visit to the Seoul or Incheon area.

Andy P.
Thank you very much for your kind review! It was a real pleasure meeting you and your group during your cruise stop in Incheon and sharing the DMZ with you. I’m very glad everything worked smoothly with the ship schedule and that you were able to experience the Third Tunnel, the observatory and the Gloucester Regiment memorial. Your group was wonderful company, and I truly enjoyed our conversations throughout the day. Thank you again for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. Andy
