South Korea is the undiscovered gem of the Far East, with food, K-culture, and mountainous scenery that you will never forget! Our discovery trip begins in Seoul, where we explore regal palaces and bustling downtown neighborhoods, and have fun at the theater. Then, we tour Korea’s modern port city of Busan, visit the ancient capital city of Gyeongju, and explore the rural beauty of South Jeolla Province. Our final destination is Jeju Island, recently listed as one of the new Seven Natural Wonders of the World. After a couple of days exploring this island paradise, we will go back to Seoul to K-party it up with some K-pop hologram shows and a meal at the N-Seoul Tower.
