Where We’re Going

We’ll start in Seoul, wandering through royal palaces in traditional Hanbok and getting lost in the steam and spice of the Gwangjang Night Market. Then, we’ll head south to Busan to ride the iconic Sky Capsules over the ocean, learn the secrets of Korean cuisine in a hands-on cooking class, and explore the rainbow-colored alleys of Gamcheon Cultural Village.

Whether we're sharing a farewell karaoke night or finding a moment of peace at a seaside temple, this trip is about more than just the destination, it’s about the connections we make along the way. I can’t wait to explore Korea with you!

Meet Your Hosts

Richelle Morgan

Hello! I’m Richelle. As a travel curator and specialist with a background in wellness, I’ve spent my career helping people find their rhythm in new corners of the world. My travel philosophy is rooted in 'slow travel’ and the idea that the best memories aren't found on a checklist, but in the quiet moments between the sights.

After years of living abroad and hosting curated experiences and group trips, I’ve learned that the most transformative journeys happen when we let curiosity lead the way.

I am so excited to host this South Korea adventure with Goodmate Travel. My goal is to create a space where you can connect with like-minded travelers while we dive deep into the vibrant markets and soulful traditions of Seoul and Busan together.

Why travel with us?

Goodmate Travel

Your journey is led by a dedicated Goodmate host from start to finish, with local hosts joining along the way to open doors you wouldn’t find on your own. Every trip is designed around the group so it flows naturally and feels personal.

“I cannot recommend Goodmate Travel enough! This trip was a life changing experience! First time ever traveling solo with a group of people I had never met. What an amazing experience. We had so much fun together, saw so many beautiful places. Ate a lot of delicious food.

If you want to get a first impression of South Korea, like I wanted to. This is seriously the trip for you. Small group, fun and caring tourguides and amazing itinerary.

I cannot recommend Goodmate Travel enough. I actually booked my second trip with them 3 weeks after I came back!”
