Historical Sites on a Rainy Day - Andrew was EXCELLENT. He went above and beyond expectations. It rained the entire day of our tour and he was prepared with umbrellas for us. In addition, without us asking, at one of the sites he got a wheelchair for our mother who has difficulty walking. He was informative about Korean history which was helpful at the two sites we visited. For lunch, he offered several restaurant recommendations and the place we chose was one of the best meals we've had during our entire 11 day stay in Korea. The photos he took of us throughout the day were also a nice added perk. I highly recommend this tour and especially Andrew.

Skip this tour - Our guide Paul was nothing to write home about. He drove us to the 1st site and said he couldn't find parking but we could walk around for 45 minutes. At the 2nd site again no parking or it was far so he left us off and met us. He was walking us though when he got a phone call and was very involved in the call. When I asked what time the demonstration was he said 11 and kept talking (it was 11:05) we ran out of the temple to catch some of the demonstration. After that we went to (what I thought) was a traditional Korean folk village. It is not, it is kinda like a low budget epcot where the moved some stuff to create a time capsule of sorts. When we got there he said he was taking his lunch break and we would meet in 30 minutes. He walked us around for an hour or so then said that was where he stopped and gave us 2.5 hours to walk by ourselves. I would've rather caught an early train to our next destination. As arranged prior to the tour he dropped us off at Seoul Station but proceeded to tell us how much luggage we had and should travel lighter. Seriously I would pass on this tour. The amount of money it cost vs what we got left a bad taste
