A must-see-and-do trip for anyone wanting to visit South Korea

  • Lopez.B
“The trip was short but every moment was memorable. We were lucky enough to be able to visit some of the country's must-see places. We took so many photos and videos during this trip since the scenery was breathtaking. The hotels are very clean and well located, which allowed us to walk in the evening after the tours, breakfast was included which made it easier for us to get ready in the morning before heading out as we prefer to start our day with a full belly, simple, good and effective. The transport, which was a van allowed us to rest and to enjoy the ride as it was only my husband and me and our tour guide Jay. Jay was very professional, passionate and friendly, it was a real pleasure traveling with him, we asked him tons of questions and he always made sure to reply to all of them and took his time to give us explanations. He knew when to give us spaces and created a fun vie during the meals, helping us discover the Korean cuisine. We will not forget this experience and we highly recommend this tour it was worth every penny.”

“Our guide did an excellent job navigating us through the sites, these 10 days around Korea were amazing. There is so much to see and learn in South Korea and our guide Brian did a stellar job of showing us the highlights and more interesting aspects of the country and telling us interesting info we'd never have gotten otherwise.”

“In 6 days, we saw a mix of urban city, traditional palaces and Hanok villages, cathedral and temples, a lively night market, some shopping, a National Park, and the coastal city of Busan. We ate very well enjoying typical Korean dishes for lunch, like samgyetang, bibimbap, bulgogi, ssam, and one pasta & pizza lunch for variety. Our guide Helena was fluent in English and Spanish so we could understand all the interesting information easily. Helena took good care of us, and though it was not included, she made extra effort to help our group find a clinic for Covid-19 PCR test after arrival in Korea. Her fun personality made us very comfortable too. And there was no pressure to shop at special stores with a ”discount” for tour groups. Our hotel in Seoul was the Marriott Times Square which was excellent. The Ramada hotel in Busan was less impressive but alright for a one night stay. I did not enjoy Daegu City and its oriental medicine museum which was too specific for my interest. However we had the chance to try on Korean hanbok dress for free in the museum. Overall, it was a quick trip that was a very good introduction to South Korea.”
