Get ready to explore South Korea in the beautiful city of Gwangju with Warren Parsons. From hiking the famous Mudeung Mtn, to eating traditional food with the locals or enjoying a weekend temple stay in the outskirts of the city, you can experience and taste the history and culture of Korea. Since Parsons arrived to Korea in 2005, he was interested in Korean history and culture and became a volunt

eer for planning and guiding with the GIC Tours. He said “Most people go to distant or famous places to have new experiences, but to have new experiences is possible nearby. If you pay close attention to your local area, you can understand the culture easily”. Warren is the best GIC guide to date and has been dubbed "a foreigner who knows Korea better than a Korean."

October falls within the peak of Korea’s autumn season, replete with vibrant foliage, crisp sunshine, and brisk winds. It is the perfect time of year for strolling through stone-walled village lanes and climbing the mountains for some colorful scenery.

This month the GIC Culture Tour visits the subtle charm of Damyang for some hands-on natural dyeing, a dining experience beside majestic metasequoias, and a vigorous trek into the ancient mountain stronghold of Korea’s Buddhist martial arts.

If you are interested in October GIC Tour to Damyang, click the link below and fill out the form. You are available to sign up by October 13th.
