Travel Companions for South Korea Dec 2nd to 9th

Hi Guys, I am a 30 something seasoned traveller and I have just got some dirt cheap flights from London
to Seoul on British Airways (£370!). I cannot find anyone else who wants to go at the mo' so I was wondering
whether anyone would like to hang out in Seoul between 2nd and 9th of Dec. I plan to do the DMZ tour,
do a City tour of Seoul, Gyeongju and Busan and probably stay at a hostel along the way and beers in the evening.

If anyone's in the area at the time, drop me a line!

Justin

Hello there. I am also going to South Korea on Dec 5-12 from Philippines. First time going on a solo trip so I kind a thinking about it. I already booked my hotel and thinking on getting a Seoul guide but my hotel didn't offer a free guide. I want to go to DMZ area too, Nami Island, Going on a City tour as well and see N-tower changing of guards and try the korean outfit for a start but I am on a limited budget so I am still thinking if going to ski and everland will be appropriate.

@Justin Sorry to jump in on this, but how did you find those flights with BA? I can only find flights that cost £1350!

Wow. That is ridiculously cheap! I hope that offer starts again next year, when I'm hoping to go...

Hi Luke, if you can I advise you to buy those dates as I doubt it will be repeated. It cost me £367, which is purely taxes, no profit to BA at all. They are only doing to drum up interest for the launch of the new route on Dec 2.
Its going to be quite chilly in Seoul , but its a one off.

Alas I'll be in Malawi on the beach! But it's good to know that they sometimes have offers like that. I'll keep an eye on them in the future
