Welcome to South Korea! We are so thrilled to have you here in the capital city of Seoul for the start of this multi-day tour to experience some of the most iconic moments, attractions, and cultural activities of this unique country. Upon arriving at the airport, we'll transfer you to your hotel in the city. Once you've checked in, drop your bags and start exploring! The remainder of the day is free for you to get your bearings and see the city for yourself! Tomorrow, the real adventure begins.
Rise and shine to your very first full day in South Korea. After breakfast, we kickstart your experience in the country with a full-day excursion to the DMZ with plenty of sightseeing along the way. This full-day tour from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm gives us plenty of time to make several stops. Some sites we'll see include Imjingak Park, Freedom Bridge, the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel, the DMZ Theatre/Exhibition Hall, Dora Observatory, Dorasan Station, and we will also pass by Unification Village. Once we return to Seoul, we'll visit the Yongsan War Memorial Museum to wrap up our historical tour, then make a visit to Gwangjang Market for a night street food tour for a delicious dinner.
Today, after breakfast, we'll head out on a Seoul city tour to get better idea of the capital's history and culture through its buildings, landmarks, and locations. See the Gyeongbokgung palace (dressed in a traditional hanbok!), pass by the Blue House, witness the changing of the guard ceremony, see the Gwanghwamun Gate, visit bustling Insadong Street, wander the alleys of Bukchon Hanok Village, and head up to the N Seoul Tower Observatory for epic views!
Today, it's off to Busan we go! After breakfast and check-out, meet with your tour guide who will take you to the station to catch the KTX train. Enjoy a three-hour train journey. Once we arrive in Busan, we'll have some time for an introductory tour. We'll pass by the Gwangan Bridge, visit Haeundae Beach, admire the seaside views at Haedongyonggungsa Temple, and even get to experience the sunset aboard a yacht at the bay. Then, you'll be taken to your hotel to settle for the night.
Today, we have a very special cultural tour that will allow you to explore and discover the ways of the locals. On the agenda, we'll visit the Gamcheon Culture Village, take the Danubi train to stop by Taejongdae Park, have a fun fish cake-making experience, and visit the Jagalchi Fish Market and Gukje Market. There will be a lot to see (and learn!) today.
Today, we travel back to Seoul the way we came. Once we're back in the city, you'll have the opportunity to visit Gangnam Street and Coex Shopping Mall. Why not spend some time picking up a couple of souvenirs to bring home? In the evening, enjoy a wonderful dinner cruise on the Han River to celebrate this spectacular South Korean adventure.
We hope you had a spectacular time in South Korea! It's time to say goodbye today. After one last breakfast at the hotel, check out and catch your transfer to the airport in time for your flight back home. Until next time – travel safe!
