| Overview |
This fascinating seven day tour is the perfect way to enjoy the highlights of South Korea. We start in the capital city of Seoul, where we visit the majestic Gyeongbokgung Palace and other must see sights of the city including Namdaemun Market. A stay in Seoul would be incomplete without learning how to make Korea's famous dish, 'Kimchi'. We then travel to Gyeongju, known as the "Museum Without Walls" due to its wealth of historical buildings, temples and artifacts. We explore many of these treasures, including the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Seokguram Grotto, Tumuli Park, a collection of royal Silla tombs, and Cheomseongdae Observatory, one of the world's earliest known existing observatories. Our journey continues to the port city of Busan, where we experience panoramic views over the city at Busan Tower. We then take in the sights and sounds of the Jagalchi Fish Market and Haeundae Beach along with other highlights of the city, before hopping on the Bullet Train to Seoul. Next we travel to Suwon and explore another of Korea's UNESCO World Heritage sites, Hwaseong Fortress. We also tour the Korean Folk Village and then return to Seoul where we can shop at the markets of Itaewon Street for souvenirs to take home.
