South Korea Western Adventure

Three days across South Korea's west, taking in Seoul's markets and palaces, the UNESCO sites of Gyeongju and the coast at Busan. It moves quickly, covering a lot of ground for a short trip.

Alongside the sightseeing there's a traditional tea ceremony, proper Korean cooking to try, and a night spent at a temple rather than a hotel.

Set up as a mix of self-guided and private, partially guided days, so you get some structure but also time on your own. Works well for families and anyone drawn to history and old sites rather than nightlife.

What you'll do

• Wander Seoul's markets and ancient palaces
