PACKAGE FAQ
Before you confirm your journey.
Important details about payment, changes, cancellation and package arrangements.
01What will be included in my final quotation?+
Accommodation, confirmed classes, meals, transfers, guiding and interpretation can be bundled through suppliers. Your itemized quotation states the agreed services, dates, room arrangement and any additional costs before you confirm. Requesting a quotation requires no payment.
02Can a group of up to 20 guests join?+
Yes, we accept requests for 1–20 guests. Quiet-space capacity, room availability and instructor ratios are checked before confirmation. A larger party may use smaller class groups and staggered sessions; the quotation explains the arrangements.
03Are these fixed departures or confirmed partnerships?+
These are tailored itinerary proposals using real Korean destinations. They do not imply a contracted partnership or a reserved session. Operating days, English or other language support, photography rules and supplier availability are verified for your dates. Any meaningful substitution is agreed with you.
04Can beginners take part?+
Tell us your experience, mobility, dietary needs and any restrictions when requesting a quotation. Movement is adapted by the instructor, religious practices are voluntary, and seated alternatives can be requested. These programs are cultural and wellbeing experiences, not medical treatment.
05What should I know before booking this program?+
The reference temple-food program publishes a second-day Chunjinam demonstration around 10:30–14:00 after early checkout. This package aligns its final day with that operating date. Jeong Kwan’s presence, any hands-on participation and dietary accommodations are not guaranteed; the teacher and format are stated in your quotation. A changed food program is discussed with you before confirmation. Photos depict the actual temple setting, not a promised chef or private cooking session.
