3.00The first stop - the temple - is definitely worth visiting. Could have spent more time at the village where the guide took us to only one house and that was it. The Tombs are a waste of time as they are not actual tombs but just mounds/small hills with nothing to see there. And the so called downtown is also just a street/market with some shops. On the way back the pond and the palace are ok as the palace no longer stand but three little structures have been constructed in its place. Guide was good and funny.
Meh….

3.00Not sure it was worth it. Guide Erika rushed everyone and there was no time to take photos. Although she was very nice and clearly tried hard she went on too much and did not let us explore on our own enough. Plus she begged for tips and 5 star reviews . Korea is a non tipping culture and while you can ask for a review telling people the score to give is pathetic and immoral and tipping is optional always. The guide I had from another company told us not to tip as it was included. In addition, the trip time was completely different on my ticket voucher than from the real meeting time and that’s dangerous as they would blame the innocent customer when it is them that don’t have it together.

5.00Hyony did a great job sharing the history and culture of all the sites. It was a very hot day so recommend a parasol and lots of water. Good walking shoes too - logged more than 18k steps!
