Highly recommended tour package - Winter Sonata Drama Tour

I enjoyed the Winter Sonata Drama Tour package which consisted of visits to beautiful gardens, cable car ride, and Nami Island visit. It was well organized and communication with the tour operators was seamless. Our tour guide Evan was so pleasant and helpful. Despite the flat tire obstacle, Evan managed to get things under control and had the problem fixed right away. Our itinerary was not affected at all.

Few explanations

Visit that deserves but with my English not at its best, I had serious difficulties in understanding the guide who spoke too fast. The only clear word was “okay” which he repeated over and over at the end of each sentence. The guide did not give much explanation on the sites and seemed more interested in getting a review with the highest score promising in exchange for coupons. We have also found this practice with other tour operators and I do not find it valid for an objective evaluation, I imagine it is a business practice. Too bad that the organization of the trip does not allow more elastic times to visit the sites and especially to manage utilities: example if to go to the bathroom are given only 10 minutes in a crowded service area, it is a bit 'difficult to keep to the schedule. I realise that it is a directive of the tour operator, regardless of the guides.
