      TravelerWritten December 2025

      Does this tour include the cost of flight to Jeju? And does the tour end on Jeju, so we would need to book our own flight back to Busan or to Seoul?

    • Tweet World TravelOperatorWritten December 2025

      Your daughters are more than welcome to join the tour, even though the suggested age range is 35 and above. The guideline is simply to indicate the typical demographic of the group, but it is not a strict requirement, and younger participants can absolutely take part.

    • Tweet World TravelOperatorWritten December 2025

      Our tour includes 2 flights from Busan to Jeju and from Jeju to Seoul, so that you can travel with us without any surcharge for the transfer.
