Great trip in South Korea
Great trip in South Korea
The trip was different to the tours I have used before in that the majority of fellow travellers were Spanish speaking and different people joined and left the group on different days. I have only used English speaking tour companies in the past with the same group of travellers from beginning to end. Also there were no optional excursions, welcome meeting, farewell dinner or group photo which is customary with most tour companies. The attraction of Europamundo, however, was its competitive pricing and variety of itineraries. For 2 days of my 4 day tour there were other English speakers (maximum 5) but I was the only one on the last 2 days of my tour which was a strange experience for me and not something I would have been happy about for more than a couple of days. Having said all of that though, my fellow travellers were friendly and I was able to communicate with them in my broken Spanish with a couple of them speaking some English. The positives about this tour were the value for money, the itinerary which was extensive, packing in a lot and the guides. The English speakers were provided with a separate tour guide which was great as our group was so small and eventually just me! The guide in Seoul, Symon Park was excellent and very helpful with tips and advice. He gave us (the English speakers) his number and told us to get in touch with him even for advice even after he left the tour in Seoul. My guide So He who joined in Busan and was with us for the rest of the trip was also very knowledgeable. I learnt a lot about Korean history and details about all the sites we visited from her.
