Itinerary

Welcome to our All-Inclusive Korea Packages starting from Seoul. Today you will depart for Gongju for Magoksa Temple (130km/2hours distance). Upon arrival you will experience meditation & conversation over tea with a monk at Magoksa Temple, a representative temple surrounded by a mountain and rivers in Chungnam Province. The temple has many treasures and cultural properties. Interesting fact about the temple is that it was never damaged by any major wars, including the Imjin War and the Korean War. After a lunch break, continue to visit Gongsanseong Fortress. It is a mountain castle which was established during the Baekje Period (234-678). It is worth the visit for its historical and cultural significance, and also for the beautiful view of the Geumgang riverside and the walking trail. We continue with visits to Tomb of Muryeong King. Only seven graves have been discovered so far. Even though many artifacts were stolen from the tombs, the tombs serve as an important evidence of Baekje culture and the foreign exchanges during that period. Next visit Gongju National Museum which preserves and displays cultural treasures. The most important of these artifacts are displayed permanently, while the remaining items rotate with special exhibitions.  After the Gongju tour, move to Daejeon (30km/40mins driving) for dinner and overnight. This tour will end approximately at 19:30 pm. (Lunch and Dinner included) 4-5 star hotel (* Daejeon Ramada Hotel [4star] is the first option)

Our destination today is Jeonju Hanok Village (80km/1hour 30mins distance) with over 800 traditional Korea houses. The village is famous among tourists because of its atmosphere that strongly contrast with the modern city around it. Choose your preferred Hanbok, Korean National Costume and make a special memory wearing Hanbok with your companions.  Following a lunch, continue to visit Tapsa Temple (40km/1hour distance) which is famous for the over 80 stone pagodas built by Lee Gapyong, a retired scholar. How this tall tower was built is still unclear, drawing much attention from people. Even though the pagodas have been around for more than 100 years, they have never collapsed nor even moved through strong winds, making them truly amazing. Our next visit will be Gwangju (110km/1hour 30mins distance) to have dinner and check into hotel. This tour will end approximately at 19:30. (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner included) 4-5 star hotel (*Holiday Inn Gwangju[5star] is the first option.)

Kick off the morning by visiting Daehan Dawon Tea Plantation (70km/1hour distance) produces high-quality green tea and is a popular tourist attraction year-round thanks to the vast rows of tea trees that line the hillside like a deep green carpet. You will have a chance to taste Boseong Green Tea! After a lunch break, we continue with visits to the reed fields in Suncheonman Bay [Suncheonman International Garden Expo 2023] which are thickly covered with reeds taller than a full-grown man. The 2023 Suncheon International Garden Expo will be held for a period of seven months from April 1, 2023 until October 31, 2023 under the theme “Life Inside Gardens”. After Suncheon tour, we depart to Yeosu for dinner. This tour will end approximately at 19:30. (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner included) 4-5 star hotel (*Yeosu Ramada Plaza Hotel[4star] is the first option.)

Wake up in Yeosu and get ready for a Marine Cable Car offering the safe yet thrilling experience with the gondola to operate over seawater. Enjoy the scenery of downtown Yeosu and the archipelago around the old seaport. Yeosu Maritime Cable Car is connecting Dolsan Island and the mainland over the ocean. Arrival to Jinju (100km/1hour 30mins distance) around 12:00pm and we have lunch break. You will be visiting Jinjuseong Fortress, which is historically linked to the Imjin War (1592-1598).  After the Jinju tour, transfer to Busan for dinner and the rest of day is yours to explore the vibrant city. This tour will end approximately at 19:30 pm.  (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner included) 4-5 star hotel (*Busan Grand Josun Busan hotel [5star] is the first option.)

Kick off the morning by visiting Dongbaekseom Island (Island of Camellias) where is an island located off one end of Busan's famous Haeundae Beach. Although the years of sedimentation have connected the island to the mainland, Dongbaekseom was originally an island and is still referred to as one. Next you will depart to Gyeongju (90km/1hour distance) and have a lunch upon arrival. We continue with visits to Bulguksa Temple which is a representative relic of Buddhist culture from the Silla kingdom. Unfortunately, the temple caught fire during the Imjin War (1592-1598). The temple now holds seven national treasures and a number of additional important heritages and was designated a World Cultural Heritage Site by UNESCO in December 1995. Continue to visit Daereungwon Tomb Complex. This park has more than 20 large and small tombs from the Shilla period and has been designated Historic site. The tombs are presumed to be those of kings and court officials. And then visit Gyeongju National Museum. Its holdings are largely devoted to relics of the Silla kingdom, of which Gyeongju was the capital.  The last stop for today, Cheomseongdae Observatory which is the oldest existing astronomical observatory in Asia. Constructed during the reign of Queen Seon-deok (r. 632-647), it was used to observe stars in order to forecast the weather. After having dinner, check into your hotel in Gyeongju for a night stay. This tour will end approximately at 20:00 pm (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner included) 4-5 star hotel (*Gyeongju Lahan Select Hotel[5star] is the first option.) 

After breakfast in the morning, drive to Andong (160km/2hours distance) and roughly we will reach Andong Hahoe Village by 11:00am. Hahoe Village is one of the most famous folk villages in Korea. Surrounded by the Nakdonggang River, the village is home to descendants of the Ryu clan of Pungsan, which still makes up 70 percent of the villagers. The village became even more famous after Queen Elizabeth of England visited on April 21, 1999 and President George H. Bush of U.S.A. in 2005.  After a lunch break, we continue with visits to Wonju Hanji Theme Park (130km/1hour 30mins distance) where you can get a chance to experience the Hanji making process. At Wonju Hanji Theme Park, you can learn everything about hanji (traditional Korean paper), including its origin and history, through exhibitions, education and activity programs.  After the tour transfer to Pyeongchang (100km/1hour distance) for dinner and check in hotel. This tour will end approximately at 20:30 pm (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner included) 4-5 star hotel (*Intercontinental Pyeongchang[5star] is the first option.)

Wake up in Pyeongchang and get ready for visiting Ski Jump Tower Observatory by monorail for Olympic Winter Games Pyeongchang 2018. Enjoy the view of the Sky Lounge and have some free time enjoying coffee or tea on your own expense. Finally, travel to Yangyang (90km/1hour distance) for a short hiking at Jujeongol of Mt. Seorak to enjoy the nature. Don’t miss the breathtaking view from Mt. Seorak! Keep your eyes open for strange rock formations. After the hiking, have some lunch at local restaurants around 12:30pm. Return to Seoul around 18:00. Drop off service is available at Amid Hotel (Former Center Mark Hotel) nearby our head office 'Hanatour'.
