SOUTH KOREA HIGHLIGHTS TOUR

Seoul → Busan 9 days Up to 16

About this trip

This is a nine-day guided run through South Korea's main cities, taking in Seoul's energy, the traditional streets of Jeonju, the ancient sites of Gyeongju, and the markets of Busan.

Expect a mix of history, food, and everyday local life — you will try regional dishes and may join in local celebrations along the way, all with a guide handling logistics.

It is run as a small group with private rooms, so you get company on the road without losing your own space at the end of the day.
