Hana Tour's 'NaeNara Travel' Nationwide Journey
5-Star Hotel Stays and Regional Gourmet Experiences Included
Itinerary Starts in Seoul and Passes Through Jeju Island
Also Covers Hard-to-Book Destinations Like Ulleungdo and Dokdo
For the first time in the domestic travel package market, a product priced over 10 million KRW per person has attracted attention.
According to the travel industry on the 24th, Hana Tour recently launched and is selling a Korea tour product at the highest price ever for a domestic package. This product is Hana Tour's 'Korea Tour 18 Days' under the 'NaeNara Travel' brand launched in 2007, with a price reaching 12.8 million KRW per person based on four people. This is the first time a domestic package price has exceeded 10 million KRW in the travel industry.
'Korea Tour 18 Days' departs from Seoul and travels through Ulleungdo, Gangwon Province (Gangneung, Donghae), Gyeongsang Province (Gyeongju, Ulsan, Busan, Geoje), Jeolla Province (Yeosu, Suncheon, Boseong, Mokpo, Yeongam, Haenam, Mokpo, Yeonggwang, Gochang, Jeonju, Iksan), and finally Jeju Island before returning to Seoul. The itinerary, which was mainly focused on inland travel, newly includes trips to Ulleungdo, Dokdo, and Jeju Island, which are inconvenient to book individually. The product price ranges from 7.8 million KRW to a maximum of 12.8 million KRW depending on the number of reservations.
This product has many features that differentiate it from typical domestic package tours. First, accommodations are provided at representative luxury hotels and resorts in each region. Additionally, a dedicated 36-seat vehicle with wider seat spacing than regular tourist buses is used, allowing travelers to enjoy a comfortable domestic trip even on long-distance journeys.
Another advantage is that a star guide with extensive domestic knowledge accompanies the tour, providing rich commentary and entertaining stories. Furthermore, the tour proceeds without guide and driver tips, options, or shopping, and offers regional specialty meals, which have received positive responses from consumers.
A Hana Tour official stated, "Until now, the Korea Tour was only operated as a 7-day itinerary, but encouraged by positive customer feedback, we have newly launched a product that travels both inland and islands at once," adding, "Through the new Korea Tour product, travelers can explore Korea more deeply and diversely."
