What To Expect

Jeonju Hanok Village

Jeonju Hanok Village is especially beautiful for its unique roof edges, which are slightly raised to the sky. Another trait of Hanok is that all the houses are heated with ondol, a unique sub-floor heating system. Since Koreans enjoy sitting, eating, and sleeping on the floor, it needs to remain heated.

Day trip to Jeonju

This was a great day trip to Jeonju from Seoul with our guide Jiwon. After a pickup from our hotel in a very comfortable van we made the 3 hour drive to Jeonju. Jiwon filled the time with a description of the development of the Seoul region into the many satellite cities surrounding Seoul. After reaching Jeonju we toured several historic sites before walking through the hanok village. There we had a delicious bimbimbop and bulgogi lunch. Before leaving we went to an historic tea room. With Jiwon’s experience as a student in the US he was able to provide a unique picture of the differences between life in Korea and the US. This added a lot to our tour. If you are interested in visiting Jeonju I highly recommend this tour. Particularly if you get Jiwon as your guide.
Great Experience!

Great experience! Jones was a very knowledgeable, personable, and fun guide. The local restaurant he took us to was off the beaten path and was amazing; we would never have found it on our own. A great day!

We had a wonderful day in Jeonju and a fantastic 15 course lunch with rice wine followed by the local bibimbap! Even though it was a very long day with lots of driving as the traffic was very heavy throughout the day but our guide Andy was excellent. He looked after us really well and provided us with lots of local knowledge. Well done Here Korea!

This is my second time opting for a day trip with Here Korea Travel. This time round we went to Jeonju in a bigger group. I was quite fascinated by Jeonju Hanok Village as it is quite big and so much to explore there. We also rented Hanbok from this amazing Hanbok studio recommended by our tour guide. Besides, We visited the Gyeonggijeon Shrine and Jeongdong Catholic Church as well which were such enriching and beautiful places. Han is our tour guide for that day. He is bubbly, fun and accommodating. As we have old folks in this trip, he makes sure that they are alright and comfortable. Would like to thank him for driving us safely to and fro from Seoul as it was quite a tiring 3hr drive (3hr is just one way). Thank you again Here Korea Travel! My family and I enjoyed this amazing trip!
