Seoul – Soulful South Korea

Forget Tokyo and Shanghai, if there’s one Asian mega city you need to visit in 2024, it has to be the capital of South Korea. The sprawling streets of Seoul are full of secrets and surprises, from the neon-lit karaoke bars of Hongdae to the traditional Hanok village of Bukchon. The old and the new blend seamlessly in the city, which is as in-love with K-Pop as it is with upholding traditional costumes and pastimes. It’s a truly inspiring place, and marks the start and end point of our 10-day tour of the country, which also takes in the Demilitarized Zone on the border with North Korea, the luscious mountains of Seoraksan National Park and the foodie delights of coastal Busan. You’ll even get to experience an authentic Korean temple stay at Golgulsa, a sixth-century Buddhist cave temple.
