Here are reviews from people who have taken our South Korea trips …
“It was wonderful in every way. I learned a lot, including the cultural and historical heritage and the views of the cities and countryside. Probably the best recommendation I can give is that the program made me want to return for an extended stay.”
— Susan from Menomonie, Wisc.
“Road Scholar is awesome. I was curious to learn about the history and culture of South Korea and Japan. I heard about Road Scholar from one of my friends and decided to give it a try. It was the first time I ever did any kind of organized travel program. Considering the number of places we stayed, the quality of food and the price I paid, I really don’t think I could have done something similar on my own. I learned a lot and had unique experiences on this trip.”
— Sridhar from Virginia Beach, Va.
