TRUST THE TWINS 2026

Our ESPEERIA team will be waiting at the airport to guide you smoothly onto Limousine Bus 6002. Get off at Seogyo-dong (Jung) and follow us on an 8-minute walk to Local Stitch Creator Town Seogyo, our home base for the next 4 nights. If you arrive before 3:00 PM, simply drop your luggage with us and enjoy some free time in the neighbourhood, check-in opens at 3:00 PM.

Check in, unpack, and take some time to settle in before the evening ahead. A quiet moment to rest, and perhaps your first hello to fellow travellers along the way.

Your first evening together unfolds in a beautiful traditional hanok in Bukchon. Begin with a welcome drink beneath the wooden beams and quiet courtyard, then settle in for a private dinner just for our group. Hosts Freya and Molly will be there to greet you, so feel free to dress up for the occasion.

Wander through the halls and courtyards of one of Seoul's most beautiful royal palaces, taking in centuries of Joseon dynasty history. Stone gates, curved rooflines, and a gentle pace to open the day.

Sit down for a light, plant-based temple food lunch, a simple and mindful way to eat that's been part of Korean Buddhist tradition for centuries.

Slip into Seochon, a quiet neighbourhood of narrow alleys, small galleries and old hanok homes tucked behind the palace walls. It's also home to some of Seoul's most stylish select shops, tiny, well-curated spaces where local designers and independent brands come together. Take your time here, duck into a café, browse a few shops, or simply follow the streets wherever they lead.

Gather around the grill for a proper Korean BBQ dinner

Wind down at Acefour Club, one of Freya and Molly's favourite Euljiro haunts, over Korean-inspired cocktails.

A short, easy hike up Eungbongsan for a sweeping view over the Han River and the city skyline, then cross Yongbi Bridge (about a 30-minute walk) straight into Seoul Forest, a wide, green escape in the middle of the city. Comfortable shoes recommended.

Seoul Forest has no shortage of good places to eat. Grab a home-style Korean meal at Grandma's Recipe, or go brunch-style at Edition Denmark, the choice, and the pace, is yours.

Welcome to the pop-up capital of Seoul. Seongsu is where the hottest brands land first, buzzing with energy and packed with flagship stores, from Gentle Monster to Olive Young to Osoi. This is your chance to finally do all the shopping you've been saving up for.

Wind down the day with an izakaya-style dinner in Seongsu, good food and easy conversation after a full day of walking and shopping.

Head into a private noraebang room and let loose, Korean karaoke is a rite of passage, and tonight it's all yours.

Discover the shades that truly suit you in this 1.5-hour personal colour consultation, one of Seoul's most popular beauty experiences.

Right around the corner from Local Stitch, this stretch of Mapo has it all: Hongdae's youthful buzz, Hapjeong's quiet cafés, and Mangwon's riverside market streets. Grab lunch wherever catches your eye, and wander as far as you like. Please be back by 4:00 PM.

Makgeolli, Korea's milky, lightly sparkling rice wine, has been brewed for over a thousand years. Tonight, learn its craft directly from a true makgeolli master, then sit down to a refined Korean dinner alongside the bottle you just made.

Step into the ancient capital of the Silla Kingdom, a city of grassy royal tombs, quiet temples, and streets that feel frozen in time. And don't forget to try chalbori-ppang, a local specialty made with barley, a tasty little bite along the way.

Board a private coach for the ride to Busan, arriving in Gwangalli, a neighbourhood beloved by Busan locals. Check in to After Chapter, a stylish stay just steps from the beach, and settle in for the next 2 nights.

Ease into Busan with a slow morning by the sea, coffee in hand, taking in Gwangalli Beach and its famous bridge stretching across the water.

Wander through Gamcheon, the pastel-coloured hillside village stacked with colourful houses, art installations, and narrow winding stairways.

Dive into the buzz of Jagalchi, Korea's largest seafood market, then continue on to Bupyeong Kkangtong Market, a historic night market packed with street food and local finds. Many stalls here are cash-only, so it's worth carrying some Korean won.

Sit down for dinner along Gwangalli's beachfront strip, where neon-lit bars and restaurants line the shore against the glow of the bridge. Dinner here, then let the night carry on as long as you like.

Visit one of Korea's few seaside temples, perched dramatically on the rocky coastline where the waves meet ancient stone. A striking start to the day.

We're treating you to a proper chimak lunch right on Haeundae Beach, crispy fried chicken and 10 different craft beers from one of Busan's best breweries. A Korean classic, done right, with the sea right in front of you.

Wander through Jeonpo, Busan's creative, laid-back neighbourhood, full of vintage stores, independent boutiques, and hidden cafés waiting to be discovered.

Your last night in Busan lands in Seomyeon, the city's buzzing downtown heart. Gather round for one final dinner together, lights, energy, and a little bit of Busan romance to send you off.

Check in to Mondrian Hotel Itaewon, then enjoy some free time before the evening ahead. Nearby Hannam-dong is packed with concept stores, boutiques, and design shops, perfect for last-minute shopping, or simply relax before tonight. Feel free to grab dinner on your own during this time as well.

This is it, our last night together. We'll meet up at one of Freya and Molly's favourite hangouts in Itaewon, the exact spot to be shared closer to the date, and let the night take it from there.

Our ESPEERIA team will help you catch the airport limousine bus according to your flight time, so you can relax right up until the last moment. Nine days, three cities, and memories to carry home with you.
