Most Korea Travel Mate tours are primarily supported by Korean government programs designed specifically for foreign visitors. Because of this, participation is usually limited to non-Korean travelers.
However, we occasionally offer special tours where Korean participants are also welcome. Availability for Korean nationals is always clearly indicated in the signup form for each trip, so please be sure to check the details before registering.

8. Do you provide Halal or Vegetarian/Vegan food?
We do not provide Halal, Vegetarian, or Vegan meal options on our trips. Many of our tours visit rural areas where these options are either not available or would exceed the tour budget.
While we always aim to consider our travelers’ needs, providing alternative meal options is not always possible. If the provided meals are not suitable for you, you will need to bring your own food or purchase alternative food during the tour.
Please note that the travel agency is not responsible for arranging special meals beyond the standard meal provided at the designated restaurant or location. We recommend planning ahead to ensure you have suitable food options during your trip.
9. Are there overseas tours too?
Korea Travel Mate occasionally organizes overseas trips to nearby countries, such as Japan. The availability of these trips depends on traveler demand and requests, so in some years we may operate overseas tours, while in other years we may not.
