    Great way to see and experience South Korea for the first time. Our group of 4 were all very pleased with the level of knowledge and promptness of the tour guides in each location. The tour appears to resemble a well organized event, as we had no problems whatsoever.

    The trip was absolutely incredible. First of all thanks to Terry who was an incredible guide - super knowledgeable, brilliantly friendly and always going above and beyond. The trip around Japan was fantastic. Every day we packed in multiple brilliant activities but we’re also given time to spend as our own family at our own pace and do what we wanted. Terry had amazing suggestions for these periods! Also lucky to have such an amazing group and meet some lovely people.

      Can a 15 year old girl travel accompanied by two other people over 18 & 21 years of age?

    • On The Go ToursOperator•Written July 2025

      The minimum age for this tour is 18 so we would not be able to accept a 15 year old I'm afraid.
