Captivating Music and Fascinating History at the Folk Village

A five-star experience from start to finish! Dragon was a wonderful driver, and our guide, Ivy, was phenomenal. She is incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to answer all of our questions, even explaining the fascinating history behind why the northern and southern homes were constructed differently. She also went out of her way to take lots of beautiful photos for us throughout the day! Beyond the tour itself, Ivy gave us wonderful recommendations for dining, shopping, and cultural experiences in the area. The absolute best part of the Folk Village tour was the traditional music and live performances—I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you to Ivy and Dragon for a memorable trip!
