Why a school trip to South Korea?

The nation of South Korea is billed as a “treasure trove of educationally-enriching activities guaranteed to inspire students”. It has a thriving technology and business scene which offers the opportunity for students to visit a variety of leading businesses, from smaller tech start-ups to manufacturing powerhouses, all of which can be incorporated into bespoke itineraries.

Tours to South Korea can also include a raft of hands-on activities for students to experience, such as the chance to learn Taekwondo, a meditation experience in the mountains and a Korean cooking class.

The Learning Adventure

The border between North and South Korea, known as the DMZ zone.

Students can learn about the divided history of the nation by taking a trip to the DMZ (the border with North Korea) which offers a glimpse into this hermit state.

Visits to a range of ancient palaces and hanok villages are also on offer, as well as a trip to the Samsung D-Light exhibition, a Coding class and a virtual reality experience. In addition, visits to schools can be arranged, where visiting students can spend time with local students.
