Discover the Serenity of South Korea Spa Vacations

Nestled amidst tranquil mountains and lush forests, South Korea's spa resorts are sanctuaries of peace and mindfulness. Discover the traditional "jjimjilbang" experience—a communal bathhouse that combines relaxation with a rich social culture. These hot springs and saunas are infused with minerals believed to purify the body and soul. Whether you’re unwinding in the healing waters of a volcanic spring or indulging in a Korean scrub treatment, spa vacations in South Korea offer rejuvenation unlike any other.

Revitalize with South Korea Wellness Tours

Finding balance in the frenetic pace of everyday life can be challenging. South Korea wellness tours provide the perfect remedy, guiding you through tranquil retreats that focus on holistic healing. Participate in immersive experiences like Zen meditation or Tai Chi surrounded by the serene ambiance of a secluded temple. Let the melodic chants and tranquil environments guide you to a place of peace and renewal, all part of the unique offerings that Korean wellness culture can offer.

From Jeju to Gyeonggi: Wellness Wonders

  • Jeju Island: Known as the "Island of the Gods," Jeju offers a natural retreat with its volcanic landscapes and healing air. Known for its healing properties, the crisp air and the picturesque setting make it a popular destination for wellness retreats.
  • Gyeonggi Province: Home to some of the best wellness centres, Gyeonggi hosts a variety of retreats that marry traditional Korean medicine with modern therapeutic practices. Here, you can explore forest trails or meditate within ancient temples, adding unique layers to your retreat experience.

Embrace Comprehensive South Korea Vacation Packages

As you wander through Seoul’s vibrant districts, you'll encounter an array of culinary delights—from sizzling Korean BBQ to the savoury goodness of Bibimbap, all of which contribute to a well-rounded and nourishing travel experience.

The grandeur of Gyeongbokgung Palace challenges the sleek skyline of Seoul, offering a reminder of the country’s dynastic past juxtaposed against its modern-day marvels. South Korea vacation packages ensure you experience the harmony of these elements, crafting journeys that inspire well-being and endless exploration.

Indulge in Korea’s Culinary and Cultural Richness

No exploration of South Korea is complete without diving into its rich culinary landscape. From bustling street markets to serene tea houses, the savoury and the sweet await. Savor the delicate flavors of Tteokbokki—spicy rice cakes—or sip on traditional Korean tea blends while surrounded by classical Hanok architecture, cultural experiences that enrich the spirit as much as the body.

Unique Cultural Experiences to Explore

Try to stay at a traditional hanok accommodation (similar to a ryokan) with hanok dinner, which involves enjoying Korean cuisine, aka jeongsik (course meals) with banchan (side dishes). It's a rustic, traditional experience that all globetrotters will love.

Umbrellas are common; you can pick them up everywhere as well, but you'll find on sunny days as well as rainy ones that locals are using umbrellas and without one, you'll get a poke in the head now and again as you're walking on busy sidewalks.

Avoid July/August, as they are the rainiest months, with heavy flooding even in the cities, and temple walks become difficult. I also recommend avoiding Chuseok in September, a six-day holiday where everything is closed.

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas
