I would like to ask to single beds for us , as we are 2 sisters , and it is easier to have to bed instead one bed pls

If you have already made a booking, please send your inquiry again through the booking page you used. If you haven't booked yet, please select the Twin Room (2 single beds room) when making your reservation.

Say I'm doing the Sept 19-22 trip, would I check in to the hotel on the night of the 18th? Or should I be arriving in the morning of the 19th although hotel check ins are normally not until the afternoon?

The tour runs from 9/19 to 9/22, departing at 8:00 AM on 9/19. Accommodation for 9/18 is not included separately.

Can we arrange transportation to and from airport

Please note that our paid transfer service is available exclusively for Discover Korea tour participants. If you have already completed your tour booking, kindly send your inquiry through your original booking page so we can assist you accordingly. If this is a new inquiry, please request the transfer service again when making your tour reservation.

Can we cut the tour on the last day? We're cutting it short so we could make our flight back. How does that work? Do we ride the train or can we arranged a private transportation back. Is that an extra charge? Also what kind of transportation do we have from starting point of our tour since we have at least one suitcase for each of us totaling 3 suitcases. I've read that it's a van. Will suitcases of group tour total 10 people fit in the van?

Could you kindly confirm the exact travel dates and the tour program you would like to book? If you could please share the details, I will check the availability and get back to you accordingly.

Can travellers start on October 11 and meet everyone at the hotel lobby for the Pre-Day Paju DMZ Tour?

The DMZ tour operates only on Fridays. The tour gathers at 9:00 AM at the lobby of Amid Hotel Seoul and returns to City Hall Station around 5:00 PM. Participation is not possible on other days of the week.

I am interested in your departure dates for March 2027. Do you know when they will be available?

The March 2026 tour is currently open for booking. Please note that the detailed itinerary and price may be slightly updated. If you book now, you will be the first to receive any updates once they are confirmed.

If travelling solo with your company am I able to share a room with someone? I'm interested in this tour and also in Discover Korea in 7 days.

For the safety of our guests and to prevent the loss of personal belongings, we do not offer room-sharing with other participants. If you are joining the tour alone, a single room will be required. If you are traveling as a group of three, a triple room can be arranged.

Is Triple Share available? If so, how much is it per person?

Yes, you can book for triple for three people. The price is $960usd per person.

How many pieces of luggage are recommended for the tour?

It is recommended to bring one piece of luggage per person.

What type of meals are offered during the tour?

Meals typically include options that accommodate dietary preferences like seafood; please notify us of any restrictions.

I do the 4 day Western Korea tour. After the second day I was already wishing I had done the Eastern tour also. I will definitely come back. The hotels were super nice. The meals, which most were included, were delicious. You get to experience all the different Korean foods and go out of your comfort zone. MARK is one of the best tour guides I have had. Communication was always very clear. I also had quite a few questions before the tour and Hana answered quickly. I used the airport pickup on arrival and it even went seamlessly.Show more

This four day tour was perfect for us because we explored Seoul on our own for a few days and then we took this tour to learn more about Korean culture. It was relaxing knowing that our tour guide knows exactly what to do and where to go. He took good care of us. The only improvement that I would give to him is that he should get straight to the point during his explanations and improve his English.Show more
