Good balance of included and optional activities. The hotels were centrally located which made it easy to explore the place on one’s own. CEO did a good job of communicating the itinerary, pacing the activities, and giving us informative overviews of the local history in all the places we visited.

My experience doing my first solo Hanbok photoshoot at the Gyeongbokgung Palace was really enjoyable. The ladies at the local tour comapny were helpful and nice, and didnt rush me.
Photographer Mr Ethan Minwook Kim was pleasant, friendly and did a really good job at making me feel at ease even though I was initially very nervous to do the shoot. He took many excellent shots which I really like and will definitely keep as good memories of my trip. He captured the essence of the Palace in Autumn weather beautifully.
I would definitely do this again and have already recommended this service to my friends. Thanks!
Journey through South Korea’s vibrant contrasts, where ancient traditions meet cutting-edge cities and serene islands. Start in Seoul, a buzzing metropolis where centuries-old palaces stand in the shadows of glass towers. Step back in time to Gyeongju's hanok villages, then soak up the coastal beauty and laid-back charm of Busan. Fly to Jeju Island for a deeper look into Korea’s natural wonders and cultural resilience. Meet the legendary haenyeo — elder women who free dive for seafood using techniques passed down through generations — and savour the ocean’s bounty they bring to shore. Along the way, roll up your sleeves for a kimchi-making experience, wander a UNESCO folk village, and take in South Korea’s rich heritage from every angle.
