Jun was the best guide! He will go the extra mile to take you to eat at the local bean sprout soup in Jeonju and is very good with taking pictures during the 15 minute hike in the mountain. He even got us home ahead of the planned ETA. Highly recommend.

The trip itinerary was nicely spread out with 2 locations since both are far from Seoul. Tours guide Sky was delightful and speak clear English. Best to wear your hiking shoes as you need to trek up the trail on Jangtaesan.

A bit offbeat I must say from the conventional trips as in there are only stops and the travelling time on car is pretty more.However those alleys in Hanok village are something you dont come across everyday and is an experience itself.Be prepared for a trek when you go to Jangtaesan but the view is worth it.Would like to thank our tour guide Patrick for the smooth conduct of the tour.

Mr. Jin CJ, the tour guide and driver, took good care of the group members throughout the whole process! You can communicate in Chinese ~ The Hanbok experience in Jeonju is great and great value for money. You can also try the Jeonju Bibimbap restaurant recommended by the tour guide - Pengnamjeong. Changtaishan can be easily visited in one trip, and the entire trip can give you an in-depth experience of South Korea. Recommended!
