BEST TIME TO VISIT/LENGTH OF VACATION
|
Spring is the best time to visit the country
especially if you’re after the cherry blossoms (Abellera, 2017,
http://www.rjdexplorer.com/seoul-itinerary-diy-guide/).
|
|
TRANSPORTATION
|
Philippine Airlines
Since my sister works here, I can get a family
discount, meaning I only have to pay 10% of the original cost of my flight to
South Korea (Basiloy, 2017).

ACCOMODATION
|
Seoul N Hotel Dongdaemun
I’ll stay in Jongno, since according to a blog
post I read, Jongno is Seoul’s historic core. Its map is littered with
shrines, temples, and other traditional sites (Dimen, 2017, https://www.thepoortraveler.net/2017/01/korea-travel-guide-seoul-itinerary/).
There’s just so much to see and explore within walking distance (Dimen, 2017,
https://www.thepoortraveler.net/2017/01/korea-travel-guide-seoul-itinerary/).
Seoul N Hotel offers a hotel room for 3 with the price of Php 3,356.84 per
night which I will split with two other friends who I’ll be travelling with
(Basiloy, 2017).
|
Php
4,476.00
|
FOOD
|
Breakfast: Free
The hotel I’m going to be staying at offers free
breakfast, so I’ll only have to worry about my meals during lunch, dinner, and
also some snacks in between (Basiloy, 2017).
Lunch: Restaurants near our itinerary
Since we’ll probably be travelling around lunch
time, we’ll just have our meals at cheap places near the tourist spots we’ll
be going to. Also, this way, we’ll have a more genuine tourist experience (Basiloy,
2017).
Dinner: Dongdaemun Market, Street Stalls
We’ll probably have our dinner meals late at
night, because we’ll be travelling all day. Dongdaemun Market is near the
hotel we’ll be staying at, so we’ll probably eat there most nights (Basiloy,
2017).
