Family trip to korean Folk village

Great full day tour ending with Korean folk village. What a fun and informative day with our tour guide Cathy. We are a family of 4 with sons aged 13 and 10. Cathy and her team took great care of us and had us laughing and enjoying the most memorable tour. We will definitely be doing more tours with Cosmo Jin when we return to Seoul again.

fantastic trip with Cathy (Miae Yang)

We had for full day Seoul tour with cultural folk village. It was amazing showing us an insight into Korean life and their culture. Well worth it. Lots of rest room breaks and places to eat and drink of needed. Our tour guide was well informed and entertaining as well as maintaining a good sense of humour and energy. Thank you Miae Yang!

Great tour company and guide!

We spent a very pleasant afternoon touring traditional Korean architecture. Our guide July was energetic, knowledgeable and flexible. On our next visit to Korea we look forward to additional tours with this company and guide.

We were very displeased and felt ripped off

We only had 1 hour and 20 minutes at the village. We did not get to buy souvenirs or eat or watch people make things. We skipped a large portion of the village. The lady was nice but a poor setup for a tour. We were taken to a jewelry store afterwards to try to sell us high priced items. It reminded me of a cruise ship swindle. I would rather take a cab a look for myself. Don’t go on this tour
