[quote=\"sunflower2005\"]Anyone can advise me ?
How much Won do we need to bring for 7D 5night in Korea .. For basic expenses like meals and Tpt ?

if u are joining tour, u should ask which meals are provided before u calculate on that..

my calculation is :

each day :
- breakfast SGD10
- lunch SGD20
- dinner SGD30
- snack SGD10
- transport SGD15
- admission fee to places of interest SGD25

total each day is SGD110
7 days SGD770 + SGD200 for buffer or extra expenses..

the balance will from the estimate will be used to buy goodies for my relatives and friends..

[/quote]i think 3k is still quite tight cuz there will be many things ur children wld wan to buy and many things we as women like to buy and if u r bringing children to theme parks, it will easily costs about SGD40 & above for admission to Seoulland, Everland and Lotteworld. Seoul is a shopping & skincare paradise..

i'm gng seoul again during xmas. if u really really really want to save, u might be able to spend only $1.5k - $2k. i'm projecting abt $4k since im doing xmas shopping there..

Hi, we are planning a trip to korea in apr next year. Prefer to be free and easy so that we will not be rushed. I cannot imagine gathering at 6am and reaching hotel at 11pm hee.


I wish to cover seoul and jeju. Wanted to check if there is any one who can share her itinerary and recommend any freelance guide?

I went through the archives and realise there were many info from insider, but I can’t find any of this reading. Not sure if it has been archived.

Would like to cover mainly eating, shopping, theme parks, and sight seeing. Not sure if timely to go ski resort.

I just came back from Korea a couple of days ago. Skiing is definitely over by the time u go in April. How many days will u be there? For Seoul, its pretty easy to move around as most of the tourist attractions are in town & can reach by MRT.

I was there for 9 days & I did not include jeju coz really no time. If your dates are confirmed, I would suggest booking your air ticket for jeju early coz the earlier u book the cheaper the ticket. U can either self drive or hire a driver in jeju if u prefer hassle free. U may want to read up in trip advisor as there are a few recommendations for such driver/ guide.

For those going to Korea soon, the weather now is cold but really nice :rahrah: When I was there last week, temperature is about 5 or 6 degrees & if u going outskirt, its even colder like 1 degree. So u dress warmly.

Hi,


Would like to check with Korea experts here…

Are Samsung phones cheaper in Korea than Singapore? Advisable to buy from there?
