Had a lot of fun, very great time. Nancy was very informative with explaining the palace, and about the legacy of king and queen. She brought us to Ginseng.

The Korea aspect of the tour was incredible, I would rate it 5 stars- CheongAn and Julian were amazing tour guides helping us all fall in love with the country. Japan felt very disorganised and fell flat.

Mooie reis, verzorgd door tour guide mr Jay en zijn voortreffelijke chauffeur! Veel gezien, veel informatie en ook veel geleerd. Ontbijt, lunch en diner waren uitstekend, eveneens de hotelovernachtingen. Alleen het hotel in Andong vond ik geen 5 sterren waard, gedateerd.

It was an excellent all round tour . Great insight into Korea and its heritage . Great food choices , cultural heritage experiences and the guided Jay was very knowledgeable .

Intrepid Travel

• Excellent - 11,699 reviews for South Korea tours

Fantastic introduction to Korean food and culture. This trip had a great mix of walking, eating and chillin. If you’re an expert in Korean food, this may not be the best tour since it’s an intro with slightly more western tastes in mind, but we did try exotic things like murder hornet soju! Haha everything was good and the group was awesome. Everyone got along well, and the guide Michelle made the tour go very smoothly. Some days were >20k steps so def being comfortable walking shoes. One thing to remember is that the dmz visit is not a part of the tour, and in general the dmz is not available on Mondays… so if adding on, you’d have to stay until Tuesday or do it Sunday before tour starts.

I have way to many positive things to mention about this trip. First of all Jacob our tour guide went beyond being an amazing leader. The first few days by myself in in Seoul were overwhelming but having Jacob who knew what he was doing in the city made it feel like our group was part of the city, and we felt safe and comfortable walking the streets Jacob's amount of knowledge about the food , history and hidden gems made the days fly by. All accommodations and restaurants were fantastic. I absolutely recommend this tour. The only problem with the tour was that it ended too early. Because of this tour I am absolutely coming back to South Korea and hope Jacob can be my tour guide. Thanks for an amazing trip.

Culture Trip

• Excellent - 235 reviews for South Korea tours

It was a great trip! We kept busy the entire time while also having some free time, had a lot of really great traditional Korean food at spots you would probably never find otherwise. And did a lot of activities! A lot of tours tend to be less focused on food/activity and more on museums/things to see. So it was nice to get one to keep me active! Everything was nicely planned and alternatives were always ready should there be bad weather.

We had a wonderful time on an excellent culture trip with a wonderful group,- really like a family. Our local tour guide Sam showed us a lot of cultural and historical sights with background information. He looked for the group like a father and showed us a really southful South Korea with a lot of heart and soul. Thank you, Sam. It was an amazing, unforgetable time for us and we will keep it in good memories. It was a pleasure to travel with all of you.

I really hate giving a bad review and liked Frank Shinn. He tried to do his best but his English was lacking. He did not explain much or give any information or interesting stories about places we were going or while on the way to. It seemed we were on our own and not led to the more interesting spots that were in the tour. The bus driver was excellent and felt very safe with his driving. Of the four hotels, the Commodore was the worst, bad food, and hot rooms.

Frank Shin was such a nice man but his English was not proficient enough to lead an English speaking tour. He worked very hard and went out of his way to be helpful, however, there was very little information given about each site we visited. The tour was quite disappointing because we were pretty much left on our own to navigate each stop. While he tried to give us information, it was all so basic and uninteresting. I was envious of other tours that had better guides who directed their guests to the best spots to see or take photos. We actually had a Spanish speaking tour guide, Cathy, who lead a family of five on our bus, and she was often directing them to the best places to go. I feel like we wasted a lot of time trying to figure out where to go. We’ve been on many other tours in Europe, Japan, and the US, in which we were very entertained with unusual or unknown anecdotes about the places we visited. I hate to leave a negative review, because I truly liked Frank as a person, but I would not recommend this tour to others. He was truly so sweet. Another thing about the tour that was unfortunate, was that on two occasions we were taken to lunch and had to pay out of pocket. We didn’t mind the added expense, but we did not have a choice of where or what to eat. We all had to go, and it was a set meal. I think they could have just added that to the price of the tour since there wasn’t an alternative. It was a hassle to have to wait to pay. Also, the timing of the trip was strange. We had a lot of time in some uninteresting places and had very brief times in fascinating places. Meaning we were often either bored or rushing around. The timing was just really off. Perhaps tour company is trying out new route? The last two nights of the tour, we got to the hotels so late at night that we had no choice but to just eat at the hotel instead of venturing into town to experience the local flavors. The hotel dinners were meh. For the most part, the hotel rooms and breakfasts were fine. However, do not expect to adjust temperature in your room. It is set, so we had some warm-ish nights. The Yeosu Ramada was the best. Newest, most comfortable. The worst was the Commodore Gyeongju, and it was pretty bad. Old. Worst breakfast. All in all, it wasn’t horrible, but I wouldn't book a Bamba/Tour Radar tour again. I am sorry to write such a critical review, but I hope this helps the tour company to improve. We spent a week in Seoul on our own, and I think we will travel independently the next time we visit South Korea.

When it comes to travel, we all know there’s so many different options, tho we were so lucky to come across Odynovo, it was the BEST choice as we were planning a Japan & South Korea Tour Lynn, Senior advisor at Odynovo was always super helpful and profesional providing the best itinerary options for our needs, giving different alternatives and giving details on each one so we could make the best out of our trip, she really delivered personalised service to fit our preferences as customers Everything worked perfectly from day 1 an until last day, from airport pick up, to hotels & tours, with very helpful drivers and also tour guides, everything was on time and wonderful As for the tour guides, in Tokyo we had Lyn who was great, super knowledgeable about the tours topics and also very helpful overall, even taking great pictures And for Seoul, we also had an amazing tour guide: Jones, who was the BEST !, he was very patient explaining all, super flexible if we had a request and super helpful, he truly was AMAZING ! He would always make sure we were ok and enjoying the tour ! So in summary, we had an unforgettable trip to both Tokyo & Seoul and if we travel in the future, I will definitely use Odynovo again ! Thank you !

Overall planning was great ( flights, hotel, pick up from the airport, guide). Few areas for improvement would be knowledgeable updates on tourist visa information, distance between locations were widely miscalculated and generally took an hour or more to get to our destinations between cities, the number of stops between drives was too frequent also causing delays, location of hotels wasn’t in the best locations (generally out of the way) and it would have been helpful to let us know we would be responsible for our tour guides lunch and snacks and that we would be taking lunch with them for all our lunches.

We had an amazing tour guide in Justin. His great sense of humour and historical knowledge made the trip exciting and fun to places some might not consider travelling to. Highly recommended.

They allowed sick people on the bus from day one. Few of us including me, got deathly sick and had to spend most of the trip at the back of the bus, then leave the tour in the middle. Shame on you for allowing this to happen

US Travel Korea

• Average - 1 review for South Korea tours

Most of this tour’s destination were just ok, only 2 locations were better and the duration of stay per location can use some improvements. For example, they gave us over 2 hours at one temple and not enough time at the national park. Most of our lunch times were pressed short, everything is in Korean so we have to google translate after waiting in lines after we find which place we want to order from. And it went on like that throughout our week. I read the itinerary when I signed up but their details were not very clear. We take at least 1 multi day tour if not more during our vacations and this tour did not compare at all. After this tour ended, we had a few extra days left and trained back to Busan, bought a day tour in Busan and it had so much more to see. The good parts of this tour was that we got to visit all the different villages and learned some of their history.

A fantastic tour of some of the most beautiful parts of South Korea. Our trip leaders Damien and ChongAn were so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I absolutely recommend this tour

A trip of a lifetime !!. We had the most incredible tour guide Damien who has the most warm energy always willing to answer and help out. The intenary was amazing as well I feel that there was something for everyone. I only wished we would have done the cruise to Jeju island and spent more time there but of course, I think that the flight arrangement after it wasn't possible was prompt and very efficient. I enjoyed this trip and feel very lucky to have had the most incredible professional and fun tour guide who we will always remember and a lovely tour group.

Learn more about South Korea

Geograhy and environment.

South Korea is located at the south end of the Korean Peninsula, between the Sea of Japan and the Yellow Sea. Separated from   Japan   by the Korean Strait and demarcated from the state of North Korea by Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), South Korea's terrain is a mix of flat lowlands and forested mountains. The coasts of South Korea are rocky and jagged, with thousands of islands (mostly inhabitable) scattered off the coastline.

Culture and customs

South Korea draws some traditions and customs from other neighboring countries in Asia, with a culture that stems from Confucianism. This system of philosophical and ethical teachings was introduced to South Korea in the 4 th century through Chinese scholars and was quickly embraced by the wider population until it officially became the state ideology in the early 1900s.

Confucianism emphasizes respect for aging, elders and ancestors, an intrinsic hierarchy that runs through work and social life, and upholds traditional family roles so you’ll often see families living together in one house.

During your travels around South Korea, you’ll also see plenty of traditions such as the act of bowing when greeting people, women wearing traditional dress (hanbok) and the practice of taekwondo (Korean martial arts). As well as ancient beliefs, new generations of South Koreans are embracing a modernized culture, one full of K-pop, Korean cosmetics and popular foods like kimchi and tteokbokki.

History and government

South Korea’s had an often turbulent history dating back to around 8000 BC when it was known as just Korea, but the country’s most impactful conflict began in the 1500s with the attempted Japanese invasion. Korea went on to become a Japanese colony in 1910 following its annexation of the Korean Empire, which ended in 1945 at the conclusion of World War II.

The country was then divided into two parts, the northern part which was protected by the Soviet Union and the southern part which was protected largely by the United States. Both the northern and southern parts of Korea officially became North and South Korea in 1948 when the two regions failed to agree on forming one, united government.

In 1950, North Korea set in motion the Korean War which was intended to unify the two countries under communism. But after much destruction to infrastructure and loss of human life, a cease-fire was called in 1953 with both countries signing the 1953 Korean Armistice Agreement. The two countries have since agreed to work towards a final settlement (The Peace Treaty on the Korean Peninsula) to formally and officially end the Korean War.

South Korea now enjoys a fully prosperous economy with a capital economic standing similar to that of countries such as the United States, Japan, and various countries in Western Europe.

You can’t go to South Korea for shopping and not stop in Seoul – the country’s premier destination for all things fashion, electronics, street food and skincare. In this shopper’s paradise of a city, you’ll find traditional Korean items perfect for souvenirs to tech gadgets not yet available on Australia’s shores.

Some notable districts/destinations where you can shop ‘til you drop include:

• Myeongdong (shopping district)
• Dongdaemun Market (shopping center)
• Cheongdam-dong (luxury boutique area)
• Pyeonghwa (wholesale market)

Top 5 culinary delicacies of South Korea

1. bibimbap.

As one of Korea's standout dishes, bibimbap is a tasty concoction of meat, vegetables, egg, and rice. Soy sauce, chili paste, garlic, and sesame oil all add flavor to this amazingly colorful dish found everywhere in Korea.

Kimchi is hailed as a nutritional powerhouse - packing a healthy punch of nutrients, vitamins, and beneficial bacteria that makes it one of the world's healthiest superfoods. But most people don't eat these fermented vegetables for health reasons - it's the uniquely, tasty flavor and versatility that makes kimchi so popular in Korean cooking.

These delicious, savory pancakes are a standard of Korean cuisine. With hundreds of different varieties, jeon can be served with red meat, chicken, seafood, vegetables, tofu, and even edible flowers.

Similar to sushi, these highly popular rice-based morsels feature fish, beef, or crab, wrapped in seaweed with pickled or fresh vegetables. Available all over Korea, they are the perfect snack on the run or quick, cheap lunch to enjoy between sightseeing.

Arriving in Korea by the way of Mongolia, mandu are essentially boiled, steamed, or pan-fried dumplings. A cheap, street food favorite, mandu can be filled with everything from pheasant to tofu, cucumber, beef, and beyond. Try out these foods on our 8 day South Korea Real Food Adventure.

North Korea will field hypersonic weapon someday, South’s defense chief warns

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, in all black, stands in front of an intermediate-range ballistic missile, April 2, 2024, in this image from the Korean Central News Agency. (KCNA)

CAMP HUMPHREYS, South Korea — North Korea’s test of a hypersonic glide vehicle was unsuccessful this month, but the communist regime is making progress in its development, according to the South’s defense minister.

Mounted on a Hwasong-16B intermediate-range ballistic missile, the vehicle failed during the final glide phase of its April 2 flight, National Defense Minister Shin Won-sik said Sunday on the televised talk show “Sunday Diagnosis.” He cited U.S. and South Korean military assessments of the North Korean test.

Hypersonic weapons travel five times the speed of sound, or more than 3,800 mph, and can maneuver to their target after being released by a booster rocket. Traditional ballistic missiles move at a higher altitude at an arc, making it easier for an opponent to determine their trajectory.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the test, the state-run Korean Central News Agency reported April 3. It said the missile successfully flew about 620 miles.

The weapon could strike any target worldwide “rapidly, accurately and powerfully,” KCNA said.

South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff called the North’s specifications “exaggerated” in a message to reporters that day. The solid-fueled ballistic missile flew roughly 370 miles from Pyongyang before falling into the Sea of Japan, or East Sea, they said.

Shin said North Korea has conducted five hypersonic weapons tests since September 2021 and continues to make improvements to its program. The April 2 missile featured ridges, or “wings,” on its warhead while another missile fired Jan. 14 was smooth and cone shaped, he said.

Hypersonic weapons development is a complicated task and will take North Korea some time to master, Shin said.

“But because North Korea is concentrating on it, we believe they will accomplish their goal someday,” he added.

Pyongyang has yet to demonstrate that its hypersonic glide vehicle “could function under realistic conditions” at an intermediate range of around 2,050 miles, the distance to Guam, according to an April 12 report from 38 North, a North Korea-monitoring organization based in Washington, D.C.

Despite the uncertainty in hitting long-range targets, North Korea’s hypersonic weapons “have shown their potential to strike Japan if they are to be used at medium ranges,” the report said.

The U.S. military is developing two hypersonic weapons programs: glide vehicles and cruise missiles that travel at hypersonic speeds, according to a Congressional Research Service report March 22. The Defense Department reportedly requested a $6.9 billion budget for the programs for the next fiscal year.
