Traveler A
An outstanding loop around Korea! Watching the changing of the guard in Seoul and wandering through the thousands of historic Hanoks in Jeonju felt like jumping into a historical drama. The 50-seater coach was clean and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable.
Traveler B
The coastal landscapes in Yeosu and Busan were absolutely stunning, and the history in Gyeongju is unmissable. Keep in mind that lunches/dinners aren't included, but the guide happily recommended delicious local pork soup and BBQ options along the route.
