South Korea Travel: Cheaper Than Ever (For Students)

July 18, 2008 at 9:35 AM | 0 Comments

Although North Korea might be a tad risky for some, neighboring South Korea is a much friendlier destination--especially for students.

If you're still in college and can get your hands on an official student identity card like the ISIC card, South Korea wants you to visit--and the country's giving out all manner of discounts to entice you.

The new "Benefits of Korea" booklet gives info on cheap student prices for Korean rail passes plus discounts of up to 50 percent on museums, restaurants and accommodations. We like the sound of these benefits and are busily figuring out how to dummy up some fake student cards!
