10 DAYS
Often overlooked, South Korea is a country where ancient traditions and modern life coexist in perfect harmony. Our Sparkling South Korea tour takes you beyond the highlights, offering a deeper look into 5,000 years of history, culture and natural beauty. From grand palaces and mountain temples to vibrant street food and folk traditions, you'll uncover the stories and spirit of a nation shaped by resilience and heritage. With expert guides, seamless travel and carefully chosen stays, this is more than a holiday, it's an unforgettable cultural journey.
From the bustling capital of Seoul, where ancient palaces and traditional villages meet cutting-edge skyscrapers, to the tranquil shores of Busan, known for its oceanfront temples, vibrant art districts and fresh seafood, South Korea is a country of captivating contrasts. On Jeju Island, a UNESCO-listed natural paradise, you'll find volcanic landscapes, hidden waterfalls and rich island folklore, while the historic city of Gyeongju, once the capital of the Silla Kingdom, offers a glimpse into Korea’s golden age through its royal tombs, serene temples and timeless heritage. Together, these destinations paint a vivid portrait of Korea’s dynamic past and present.
