Kashiro very satisfied

The tour moved from Myeongdong to Suwon by microbus at 6:30, and Dragon-san politely talked about various background information during the trip there and guided us clearly about Hwaseong. Also, the tour was very satisfying due to the talk that considered safety and tour participants, and the response tailored to the situation at the time. Thank you very much. Onsen Taro

Thanks to Den-san, I learned a lot.

I participated in a night tour in Suwon. I participated without knowing anything about the background, only that it was the Yi San Castle. The guide explained everything to me so carefully, and I gained a good understanding of the background of how this castle was completed. It was a very deep and educational and enjoyable field trip. Please do it again if you have the chance.
