    I really loved this South Korea Express trip through MWTours and Tour Radar! It was pretty fast paced and the group covered a lot of ground in just a week, but I got to see so many things that I probably wouldn’t have seen on another tour or by myself. Our guide was also really great! He provided lot of good information on the sites we were visiting and brought us to good places for lunches. All of the accommodations were really nice as well, and we had rides booked to and from the airport, which was awesome. My only gripe is that the DMZ tour took a little longer than expected (we thought it would only be half day but it took all day), so we got less time in Seoul than we originally planned. My suggestion to anyone booking this tour would be to book extra days at the end of the tour just for Seoul. But other than that I loved the tour!

    The only problem was getting food in the evening from some of the towns and hotels because they were either closing for the night or the hotels didn’t serve after 8 or 9 pm. So maybe knowing this the tour guide can arrange for something earlier. Otherwise the tour guide and driver were wonderful.

    The tour on the whole was good. The only hotel I would change is the Koreana. Firstly their staff know very little English and they are very unfriendly and not helpful at all. Also this hotel is situated right where most of the protest rallys occur so all roads leading to it especially on the weekends are closed. The hotel staff make no effort to help their guests check in or check out. Even though our room was available 2 hours before check in time they wanted to charge us an additional fee to check in early after we had an awful time trying to get to their hotel with all the roads closed because of the protest rally.Even on the day our tour started the tour guide could not meet us at the designated spot because the roads were closed due to the protests. The guide got to us about 25 minutes later than what was agreed.
