PRETTY IN PINK: You'll love South Korea's flowering cherries.
WANT to take in the splendour of mass displays of flowering cherry trees, but not fussed at the thought of visiting Japan in mid-spring when it is quite expensive and crowded? There is an alternative.
Cherry blossom viewing in South Korea is every bit as spectacular, but with smaller crowds and attractive prices.
Macleay Valley Travel has a 15-day fully conducted Korea Cherry Blossom Tour departing March 29 next year.
The price of $4985 per person twin share includes flights with Cathay Pacific from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane and an 11-day overland tour of South Korea. There will be viewing of massed displays of cherry blossoms in five locations, including the Jinhae Cherry Blossom Festival.
