    Thank you very much..we were having such a wonderful experience in Hwacheon Ice fishing festival..a hassle free trip and more economical..We were a family of 6 and can you imagine being served with 6 big grilled fish? The tube sledding and the other small ride were such fun. I RECOMMEND booking with Korea travel easy, it’s really easy.

      We would like to thank you very much for your wonderful comments but also for your detailed explanation about tour. We are very pleased you and your family have enjoyed festival including tube sledding. We hope that we will be able to welcome you back. 🙂

    Good experience with the event Although it is very cold due to weather conditions and little issue with the bus condition, everything still goes well . Is very fun…We came on weekday no5 much people very fast we 2pax caught 3fishs total within 20min. After that we walk around & play 3 round of slide. Thank to the earmuff

    • KoreaTravelEasy    

      Hello, Shareen! Thank you for your honest feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your experience with KoreaTravelEasy. Yet, we apologize for the bus issue, we are going to check this matter with our partner – make sure that this won’t happen again in the future. We are sorry about this. Still, we are very excited to hear your great experience with KoreaTravelEasy. We hope to see you again 😀

    A tour worth going as it was a good experience. however, instructions on how to fish were not well taught. If you are planning to try for ice fishing, this is definitely a good deal not to be missed.

    • KoreaTravelEasy    

      Good morning Cheryl 🙂 Thank you for your honest opinion. KoreaTravelEasy is glad that we have more rooms to get better. We are trying our best, but we will make sure that customers feel the same. We will definitely talk about this “fishing instruction” part with our partner so that our customers can actually enjoy their ice fishing experience in Hwacheon. Please visit us again Cheryl 😉

  13. Ne*** F***     

    It was a really nice trip at a very cheap price! Ice fishing was fun especially when you catch a fish. We also did ice skating and got to see snow fall from the sky. It was a first time for me. Great lunch too. Although one thing I would suggest – I hope the guide will be more interactive to the guests. Because our tour guide did not have much interaction with us, would’ve been more fun if he did. But still a great time. ?

    • KoreaTravelEasy    

      Hello, Nelice! Thank you for the valuable feedback. We appreciate every constructive comment from our customers which helps us to deliver better service. We will absolutely send your message about “guide attitude” so that our customers can enjoy more on their trip 🙂 Again, we are glad that you enjoyed your ice fishing activity with us! Hope to see you again, until then take care <3

  14. we*** x***   China
