Hi,

Jeju is a beautiful place and there are lots of things to be done - go-karting, ATV ride, balloon ride, etc.

Your boy will like it.

Hi,


Last minute decide to go to Korea in December. Checked with ASA, Hong Thai and CTC. Limited seats available now. As we have 9 of us travelling, make it more difficult.

In fact, ASA Seoul + Jeju already full. So left with only 6 days Seoul.

Am considering DIY, anyone can recommend more local tour guide? I am afraid they are fully booked already now, so will appreciate if I have more to contact.

9 person going it should be easily to contact the Local Tour Operaters in Korea....
I believe they can Customize your tour...no need to follow our Local Singapore Tour....
Visited Korea several years ago , got all the information through their Tourist website...
Last time , they have freelance tour guide....no need to pay fees...but you are responsible for their transport/meals/entrance fees to attraction...

Normally these Freelance Tour Guides are students...on vacation...who wants to learn English or Chinese....

But the catch is that all sightseeing is by Local Transport, buses, MRT, taxis...
It was quite fun....unlike following Local tour....
We always leave the hotel after 9am...to avoid office crowd....

Now most important is to get the Flight you need to arrive in Seoul....

Happy planning... :xedfingers:

Hi,


I am planning a F&E trip to Korea in December. I would like to know where are the recommended places to go for food eg. Korean Ginseng chicken soup, barbeque food etc. Can someone share with me your experiences? Thank you.

Hi


I’d like to go on a 6D free and easy to Korea in early Dec 2011. Main objective is to bring 10-yo boy to try out the ski resort (for say, 2N stay). Plan to go direct to ski resort, then to Seoul as base for shopping, and may be day trips from Seoul.

Any ski resort / day trips to recommend?

Regards
