Our trip to Andong will be a pleasant memory. The Hahoe Folk Village was amazing. It was wonderful to see village living in the days of old. Steve was very informative and accommodating. He possesses a pleasant personality. He
Very interesting tour. Tour guide was fine It is a three hour drive from Seoul-a long way.
A bit far from Seoul, it was around 3 hour drive by car and the traffic didn't help. Hahoe Village is quite unique. If you want to see the preserved original Korean houses where some Koreans still live then this tour is a must. You also have lunch the Korean way - you sit on the floor and you have to remove your shoes :
Wonderful day tour with so much to see and learn. I had a fantastic guide called Lee from Kim's Tours who looked after me very well and answered all my questions. Pick up from my hotel and drop off was very smooth. A highly recommended tour.
Kim Travel was absolutely amazing. Their tours were the best tours of all that we went on while visiting South Korea. The guide was very knowledgeable and we really felt they went out of their way to go above and beyond to teach us about their culture.
