Seoul → Incheon 9 days Up to 16

About this trip

Nine days moving through South Korea's contrasts, from the high-rise energy of Seoul to the quieter, older rhythms of Jeonju and Gyeongju, then out to Jeju's landscapes and finishing in Busan.

A guided small-group route built around history and food as much as sights — traditional villages, ancient sites, and regional dishes along the way.

Private rooms throughout and a fully guided, easy-paced itinerary, suited to travellers who want the culture without organising the logistics themselves.

  • Wander Jeonju's traditional village and try local specialities
  • Visit ancient sites around Gyeongju
  • See Jeju Island's landscapes
  • Finish in Busan, exploring its cultural sites
  • Sample a range of iconic Korean dishes along the route
Good to know
  • Easy pace with private rooms throughout
  • Fully guided, small-group format with a set route across five main bases
