Joshua
Asked on August 13th, 2022My husband is 83 and has COPD. How much walking is on this tour and what accomodations are their for seniors
Explore!Operator•Written August 2022Our South Koreo Explorer trip is a Discovery trip so the emphasis is not on walking, more on the culture. It would generally be walking around sights, getting on and off transport etc. The places we stay are every bit as important as the sights we visit and the things we do. Wherever possible we choose small, local and family-run properties. Occasionally, when we want to get off the beaten tourist trail, we may stay in more basic accommodation. Choices are based on what's available in the places we want to stay; we choose the accommodation to suit the itinerary, not the other way around.

Asked on January 13th, 2022Do people have to be vaccinated to be part of the tour or just show proof of a negative Covid test? Do people have to quarantine when they set foot into Korea or is the media blowing that out of proportion?
- Explore!Operator•Written January 2022
