What To Expect
Andong Hahoe Folk Village
Tourist can walk and feel real old traditional village where still remain an old culture and traditional Korean houses. This delightful traditional riverside village – a Unesco World Heritage site – is a place to commune with the traditional fabric of old Korea and, in the busy months, with large crowds of visitors. Avoid the weekends, go off-season and be rewarded with a glimpse of bucolic enchantment and the gentle rhythms of countryside village life.
Buyongdae
Buyongdae is a cliff about 64 meters high situated where the Taebaeksan Mountain Range ends. From the summit, one can get a bird’s-eye-view of Hahoe Village in Andong. The name was taken from an ancient history of China. Meaning lotus, the name Buyongdae is said to be given for Hahoe Village’s configuration like a lotus flower. Thus, one can get the best view of the village from the cliff. Located near Buyongdae are Ogyeonjeongsa House, Gyeomamjeongsa House, and Hwacheon Seowon Academy.

5.00Everything about this trip was more than I expected. Mr BJ Kwon was an excellent guide who avoided the crowd and took me to some awesome photography spots as I needed. Also, the Andong chicken was delicious. I couldn’t have ask for a better experience. Thank you Mr. Kwon.
Andong Hahoe - great but disappointing service

2.00- we did not receive the vehicle as mentioned in the advertising - we paid our food ourselves 60.000K won either is was included, I checked once I was back at hotel to verify as I did not want to argue with the driver to not ruin my family day. The organisation made a refund of 40 EURO which is appreciated. - the guide did not have much additional knownledge, he grabed a paper guide onsite and guided us based on that paper. This I could have done myself - conclusion I paid 500 EURO for 3 persons, worth it? Yes the village is beautiful and something completely different from what you see in Seoul as you are in the country side. But I expect from a guide that he tells me the ins and outs. - BTW the guide was very very kind no comments on that But I do not recommend unless you have the gurantee of a good and professional guide...
A memorable Andong trip worth signing up for!

5.00The trip started with on time 7.30am pick up. Our private tour guide, Chance Kim, is absolutely fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly n jovial. The trip took us almost 3 hours to reach destination - Unesco heritage Andong Village. We had a good 2 hours walk in the village with detailed explanation from Mr Kim, whom also acted as our photographer. What a bonus!! Overall, it was an enjoyable & meaningful trip for us. This is a trip worth every cent paid for. Thank u Mr Kim...
GREAT Tour!

5.00My sister (Carol) and I were in South Korea touring with my daughter and her husband. My daughter was born in the Andong area of South Korea and my husband and I adopted her about 31 years ago. First trip to Korea for me. It was so great going to the Andong area, where she is from. What made it even greater is Chase, our tour guide! We toured the Andong Hahoe Folk Village and because we were the only two people on this tour (we went in mid-November, very non touristy time of year) we got great information and special attention from Chase. Topping on the cake was that Chase took lots of photos of Carol and I and shared these with us. This tour was definitely a highlight of our Korean adventures and I highly recommend it!
