Don’t pass up the opportunity to take part in a dynamic K-Pop dance class or to catch a stray at one of Korea’s famous baseball games. Tonight, you’re free to explore Seoul however you like.

(Teilweise) mit netter Gruppe oder lieber ganz alleine reisen?

Durch die Buchung einer organisierten Südkorea Reise für junge Leute oder sonstigen Asien Reise für junge Leute kannst du dir nicht nur Planungsaufwand, sondern oft auch Kosten ersparen, da die Reiseveranstalter Unterkünfte, Transportmittel, etc. in größeren Kontingenten vorab einkaufen und dadurch Sonderkonditionen aushandeln können. Du profitierst dabei außerdem von der Erfahrung des Reiseveranstalters, ggf. fach- und ortskundigen Reiseleitern (von deren Erzählungen du dich gemütlich berieseln lassen kannst…) und hast bei Reisen in der Gruppe die einfache Möglichkeit, nette Mitreisende kennenzulernen. Wer schon öfters gereist ist, wird wissen, dass Reisegefährten oder sonstige Reisebekanntschaften einer der wesentlichsten Faktoren für unvergessliche Erlebnisse sind. Außerdem hat man meist auch bei organisierten Reisen genug individuellen Freiraum und man kann, sofern die An- und Abreise nicht inkludiert ist, den Aufenthalt individuell verlängern und vor oder nach der Gruppenreise mit jungen Leuten zusätzlich noch alleine reisen. Wenn du deine Reise dennoch lieber komplett selber organisieren und auf eigene Faust reisen möchtest, dann findest du auf unserer Individualreiseseite alle nötigen praktischen Tools, mit denen du schnell & günstig planen und buchen kannst:
