Tour cancelled - not enough people signed up

Mary_H, Apr 2026
Not enough people signed up, so they cancelled our tour. We were disappointed to not be able to see the village.

Great guide and tour

Margaret_D, Apr 2026
Lloyd was very attentive and gave us lots of information about Korea on the drive to the folk park. He made sure we saw lots of shows and showed us all the highlights of the folk village. I would definitely book another tour with him.

Don’t go when it rains

Closed due to rain. Viator was not reliable. We booked tour prior day then called Viator guide on day of tour to find they cancelled because not enough people signed up.

Very good

Joanna_B, Nov 2024
Very good afternoon trip out of Seoul. It was about and hour drive from our city centre hotel, 2 hours in the folk village and over an hour drive back due to traffic. We chose this tour as it was our last day in Korea and we had a night flight back home, so it was great way of spending afternoon between hotel check out and travelling to the airport. The village itself was a good experience, walking around with the guide explaining about the history etc.

The day of my tour was...

Madeleine_P, Jun 2024
The day of my tour was raining all day, so we did it in the rain, too bad, the place itself needs more attraction, my friend and I did not know it was not a real village. For an outside of the city experience it was alright.

Korea Village

Everything went quiet well. The village was an interesting place. Our guide did a great job and we had enough free time

Very nice place to visit. Our guide was great. Definitely would recommend visiting the place. There are performances in traditional outfits.

Korean Folk Village Tour

We felt a bit rushed going through the Village with our guide, though she was very informative. We were given no free time. We understood at the end why we were given no free time because she took us to a sales pitch on red pine oil. So disappointed that Viator would allow that!

We were picked up on time, however...

Kevin_M, Oct 2017
We were picked up on time, however two other people were having lunch and therefore we left 40mins late. I think that when booking the tour we should have been told that it was a holiday, the traffic was very bad taking 11/2 hours to get there. Due to this we only had 1 hour visiting the village, not long enough at all. On return we still went to a herbal sales shop, we could have stayed at the village longer. Unfortunate, as the Village was good and our guide nice.Liz

it was very good the tour guide is...
