About Korea Trip Guide

Korea Trip Guide is an independent travel guide website that helps international visitors discover Korea more easily and comfortably.

Our goal is simple:
to turn raw tourism data into practical, easy-to-use travel guides – with clear routes, nearby attractions, and real-world tips that make your trip smoother.

What we do

Many official tourism sites provide excellent data, but it can be difficult to understand how to actually use that information in a real trip.

Korea Trip Guide focuses on:

Highlighting key attractions in each region of Korea
Recommending nearby places that can be visited together
Structuring trips as simple “mini-itineraries”, based on distance and theme
Showing basic information such as address, opening hours, events, and contact details when available

We aim to make it easier for you to answer questions like:

“If I go here, where else can I stop by nearby?”
“What kind of place is this, in simple terms?”

How we create our content

Our content is mainly based on:

Open API data provided by the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO)
Publicly available tourism information and official resources
Automated scripts that:
fetch the latest tourism data
combine it with nearby spots
format it into clear, readable guides

While we make heavy use of automation to keep content updated,
the structure and concept of each guide are designed so that travelers can understand:

What kind of place this is
How to enjoy it efficiently
What else you can see in the area

Limitations & disclaimer

Please note:

Information such as opening hours, events, or contact details may change without notice.
We strongly recommend checking the official website, phone number, or local information before your visit.
We do not manage the facilities or events listed and cannot guarantee their current status or availability.

Korea Trip Guide is a personal project, not an official government or corporate site.

Our vision

Korea has countless places that are worth visiting, from famous landmarks to small local spots.

By combining official tourism data with a traveler-friendly format,
we hope to help you:

discover new destinations,
plan smoother itineraries, and
enjoy Korea in a more relaxed and informed way.
