The journey

This six-day journey links South Korea's bustling capital with the volcanic landscapes of Jeju Island. Beginning in Seoul, you explore historic royal residences such as Changdeokgung and Gyeongbokgung, visit Jongmyo Shrine and the National Museum of Korea, and choose between hiking the granite ridges of Bukhansan National Park or touring the Korean Demilitarized Zone. Evening visits take you to automotive design displays and the lively lanes of Shinchon.

From Seoul, you travel across to Jeju Island by domestic flight or scenic ferry. The island portion introduces Jeju's relaxed markets and coastal scenery, followed by scuba diving among underwater volcanic rock formations and marine life. Your tour concludes with an early morning hike up Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak to catch the sunrise over the crater before transferring to Jeju Airport for your departure.
