Why This South Korea Trip Is Different

What Makes Seoul, Busan, and Jeju Unforgettable

Seoul pulses with energy—think royal palaces nestled between skyscrapers, hidden hanok villages where time slows down, and night markets where every corner smells better than the last. We’re diving deep into Korean cooking traditions with a hands-on class because the best way to understand a culture is through its food.

Busan offers everything Seoul doesn’t: seaside breezes, colourful hillside villages, and a slower pace that reminds you why you travel in the first place. The KTX train ride between cities? It’s not just transport—it’s your chance to watch Korea’s countryside unfold like a film reel.

Jeju Island rounds out our adventure with volcanic landscapes that feel otherworldly. This UNESCO-protected paradise is where South Korea goes to breathe, and we’re joining them.

Ready to Trade Your Daily Commute for KTX Train Rides?

This South Korea women’s adventure is booking now for March 2026—but here’s the thing: we need six confirmed travellers by early December 2025 for this trip to go ahead. With only 6-10 spots available total, this intimate group size means personalised experiences and the chance to truly connect with fellow women who get it—the ones who’d rather spend their holiday money on kimchi-making classes than all-inclusive resorts.

The investment? USD $2,300 for eight days of cultural immersion, incredible meals, comfortable accommodation, and the kind of experiences you can’t Google your way into.

Adventure waits for no one. Let’s make March 2026 unforgettable.

    So 17 years ago, my husband and I set off with our little family in tow, embarking on a short-term assignment in Taiwan. Although without any knowledge of expat life or the Taiwanese culture, we took the chance and decided this would be an exciting little adventure; little did we know it changed the direction of our lives forever.
