For travelers who wish to get to know south Korea well, this itinerary includes both the popular highlights and a couple of lesser-visited places that come as both a pleasant surprise and the opportunity to see a more local side of South Korea.

The journey starts in Seoul where you will spend a full day visiting popular monuments and attractions such as Gyeongbokgung Palace, Insadong antique street and Namsangol Hanok Village. Asia Answers recommends adding a day in Seoul if you wish to visit the demilitarized zone (DMZ).

Next you’re off to Gimpu domestic airport for your flight to Jeju Island, situated off the southern coast, a mesmerizing destination renowned for its natural beauty and unique culture. Jeju boasts stunning landscapes including lush forests, dramatic cliffs, pristine beaches, and volcanic craters. The island offers travelers diverse flora and fauna, a mild climate, rich heritage reflected in its traditional stone houses, vibrant festivals, and the famous Haenyeo (granny divers) culture.

Following Jeju, take a short flight to Busan, south Korea’s second largest city and a vibrant metropolis brimming with energy and charm. Nestled between mountains and sea, Busan boasts pristine beaches such as Haeundae and Gwangalli. Its bustling markets offer a tantalizing array of fresh seafood and local delicacies.

From Busan, it’s just an hour by road to Gyeongju, often dubbed the "museum without walls," a former capital city steeped in rich history and cultural heritage. Its landscape is adorned with countless archaeological sites, royal tombs, Buddhist temples, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as Bulguksa Temple and Seokguram Grotto.

After Gyeongju, you’ll head by road to Jeonju stopping enroute at Juknokwon Bamboo forest and Damang where a road lined with large sequoia trees creates an amazing visual. In Jeonju, visit a traditional Hanok village.

Next, drive to Buyeo, once the capital of the ancient Baekje Kingdom, where you will see archaeological sites and historic relics. Continuing on you’ll reach Daejeon, a modern and dynamic city which is home to prestigious universities and research institutions; Korea’s Silicon Valley. Its dynamic cityscape, green spaces, and culinary diversity offer a glimpse of the Korea of the future.

From the modernity of Daejeon, you’ll spend time exploring a Korean Folk Village in Yongin, before moving on to Suwon Hwaseong fortress, an impressive structure built in the 18th century.

Finally, arrive back in Seoul for a last night before leaving Korea.
