In an unparalleled gesture of hospitality and warmth, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, together with the Korea Tourism Organization, announces a unique initiative: “KOREA invites U” as part of the “Visit Korea Year 2023-2024” celebrations.
Who’s Invited?
Eligibility for this once-in-a-lifetime trip is specifically tailored to ensure a truly personal and meaningful experience. If you’re a non-Korean national residing outside Korea, with unique stories, memories, or connections to this dynamic country, and available for an adventure from May 20 – May 24, 2024, you’re exactly who they’re looking for!
A Journey Tailored to You
The “KOREA invites U” program promises not just a trip but an experience—a 5-day journey meticulously designed to touch your heart and soul. The itinerary includes a mandatory joint tour on May 21, allowing you to immerse yourself in Korea’s rich culture and history with fellow enthusiasts. What follows is a three-day personalized tour package, crafted around your own story and connections to Korea, ensuring a visit that’s as unique as you are.
Your trip will be worry-free, with round-trip tickets to Korea, travel expenses, accommodation for four nights, and travel insurance all covered. Plus, you’re encouraged to bring along one additional person who shares your story or needs to be by your side, be they a minor, elderly, or someone with disabilities.
