Creator's Key Takeaways

It was a delightful port and we're going to share with you how to do it all through the day.

After more than 20 years of cruising, we've learned the best port days are usually the ones we planned ourselves.

This particular tour when we booked it was less than $70 a person. So, we could not beat that.

The South Korean people are just lovely and delightful.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Wear sturdy shoes for the mountainous terrain.
Bring your passport when purchasing items in South Korea.
Be respectful and on time when on a tour.
Consider a small-group third-party tour for better value and flexibility.
