KR TRAVEL

KR Travel: Your local agent in South-Korea

KR Travel is an inbound tour operator in South Korea. Our combined experience in selling Korea as a travel destination, our intimate knowledge of the country and our willingness to listen to our customers are reasons for our success. We are guided by a mutual profit strategy. Our aim is to help our partners sell Korea more competitively and more successfully. Our international staff are fluent in English, Korean, German, Spanish and Dutch, allowing for a streamlined, professional service that caters for the need of our international partners. We strive to provide the balance between personalised service, quality products and competitive pricing.

Tour Programs

We choose and recommend our destinations by listening to and understanding the whish of our partners. Our recommendations are based on years of experience, knowledge and a deep passion for Korea. We combine modern cities, small fishing villages, impressive mountains and picturesque islands with a well-balanced mixture of activities, culture and nature. Our well-trained, highly experienced tour guides speak English, German, Dutch, French or Spanish. In addition to the standard bus or private car excursions that we offer, we have vast experience of arranging special activities such as hiking, biking and winter sports. We have broad experience of organising combination tours combining South Korea with North Korea, China or Japan.

Hotels & Transportation

We offer excellent hotels in different classes: from modest, tourist class hotels or motels to luxurious 5-star accommodations. Cleanliness and a high level of service are our main criteria in selecting our partner hotels. We conduct regular evaluations of all our hotels, thus guaranteeing our customers the best possible quality. We provide our customers with all means of transportation available in Korea, ranging from hire cars for individual travellers to private coaches for those who travel in groups. All of our vehicles are fully insured and are equipped with air conditioning and heating systems. We also arrange domestic flights, trains, boats or other means of public transportation.

Winter Programs

South Korea is definitely Asia’s Mecca for winter sports. It was narrowly edged out in the bid to host the Winter Olympics in both 2010 and 2014. The country hosts reasonably-priced, world-class ski resorts all within 3-4 hour drive from Seoul. The resorts offer excellently groomed slopes, chair lifts, equipment rental and ski schools. In addition, medical treatment and other services are available. The ski season starts in late November and lasts until early March. KR Travel offers ski-tour packages which are usually combined with a land tour.

Congress & Incentives

We have been serving international congresses and events over the years and are fully experienced in managing and coordinating the total production of your event from the selection of the venue to the arrangement of transportation, meetings, entertainment, gala dinners and partner programmes. South Korea offers excellent facilities for international events and exhibitions of all sizes and we will employ our expertise to offer you the best advice and suggestions to meet your needs.

Active Marketing & Sales Support

KR Travel has accumulated many years of experience in marketing and direct sales on the European market, and we share our expertise and knowledge with our partners. We understand that Korea may be an unknown destination to most of your sales staff and customers. We provide in-house sales training and presentations for your sales staff and can share our extensive database of photos, promotional films and texts with your company.
