Nice pleasant way to spend the day. Jeonju was very pretty. Three hours was not enough. We would go back soon. Jangtaesan with the autumn leaves was exhilirating.

The scenery of Changtai Mountain on November 17th was very beautiful. The metasequoia trees had turned red and the red leaves all over the mountains and fields were stunning. It's a pity that the traffic jam happened during the holiday and squeezed out the time for fun. Next time I will choose a one-day trip.

The trip went smoothly and our guide Sabrina is very friendly and helpful. I recommend this trip if you want a stress free way of going out of Seoul and exploring the nearby areas.

The tour guide is very nice and has a stable temperament. If someone was late in the morning, he immediately changed the itinerary flexibly, so that everyone had enough time to eat in Jeonju Hanok Village and take photos of Hanbok.

The location of the store is very easy to find ~ the service staff are also very friendly. Although I chose the basic hanbok ~ there are many options (I highly recommend spending more money on hair styling) and the time is sufficient, but it is recommended not to wear your own clothes. It's too thick. If you don't take off your clothes, you'll look swollen when you put on the hanbok, but it's still pretty.

The tour leader Steve was very serious and explained the whole process to us and took photos. We arrived at the Serenity Arboretum late because of the traffic jam, but unexpectedly saw the lights lit up at night, which was very beautiful! The ginkgo leaves on Nami Island have fallen off, but they are still beautiful on the ground!
