Most travelers, including citizens of the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, can currently enter Korea without a K-ETA through December 31, 2026, under a temporary exemption covering 67 countries. An e-Arrival card is still required within three days of arrival. Requirements vary by nationality, so we confirm your specific situation before your trip.

Yes, fluent English throughout, alongside the trusted local relationships that make the experience effortless.

For a fully custom itinerary, four to six weeks gives us the best access to reservations and experiences that book up early. That said, we regularly accommodate shorter timelines, so reach out even if your trip is close.
