Visit delightful Seoul, taking in landmarks such as the memorable Deoksugung Palace and National Museum. Then enjoy shopping in the eclectic Insadong shopping area.


A scenic seventy-minute drive takes you to Seoul, where you will find a diverse blend of modern skyscrapers and superhighways combined with majestic ancient palaces, temples, city gates and gardens.


Visit Deoksugung Palace, the smallest palace in South Korea, and noted for its elegant stone-walled road. Located at the corner of the busiest intersection in downtown Seoul, it is also the only South Korean palace standing alongside Western-styled buildings, which adds to the uniqueness of the scenery.


Make your way to the impressive National Museum of Korea. There are more than 4,500 exhibits housed here that detail Korea's historic and cultural heritage. It is the world's 6th largest museum, and a premiere venue for the nation's cultural exhibits.


You’ll also stop at Insadong, one of Seoul's premiere shopping districts and a virtual living museum. Insadong's narrow streets are lined with antique stores, art galleries, second-hand bookstores, calligraphy shops and quaint teahouses. Enjoy some free time here to browse through the many shops, grab a bite to eat or simply people watch.


Need to Know:

Note: Photos and video are not allowed in the museum. Deoksugung Palace is closed on Mondays and will be substituted with a visit to Gyeongbokgung Palace.
