1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
The whole trip was great. If I had to choose a memorable part, the K-pop dance class instructor was incredibly engaging, helpful, and strict! Our motley crew has a tendency to joke around and slack off, but she kept us moving and focused - and as a result, we performed well, we had fun, and everyone agreed it was one of the best activities we'd done!2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
if you have any dietary restrictions, get Naver Maps and a portable charger/power bank. Sometimes it's hard to find food options quickly, and some restaurants expect everyone sitting at the table to order an entree. Knowing that ahead of time allows you to look at options before. Also, the power banks sold at Artbox near the first hostel are cheap, fast, reliable, and hold a charge for a long time.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes, and culturally South Korea seems to have good standards for low impact.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Amazing! I would do it again!Julie Forshaw review 12 Jun 2026
