Family travel from the Middle East to South Korea is steadily on the rise. Arab visitors are showing a clear preference for itineraries that allow parents and children to enjoy experiences together, particularly those that balance nature, traditional culture, and leisure activities.
To meet this demand, YallaKOREA has designed family-oriented travel packages tailored for Arab guests. These programs include Muslim-friendly services such as halal dining options, prayer times, and Arabic-speaking guides. Among the many destinations, four stand out as the most popular choices.
1. Nami Island
A scenic retreat where nature and family come together
Situated on the Bukhangang River, Nami Island is one of Korea’s most beloved natural attractions, offering different views with each season: cherry blossoms in spring, lush greenery in summer, colorful foliage in autumn, and snowy landscapes in winter. With walking paths, electric car rides, bicycle rentals, and picnic areas, it is an ideal spot for all generations to enjoy together.
For Muslim travelers, the presence of a prayer room and halal restaurants on the island is a major advantage. YallaKOREA organizes private family tours with dedicated vehicles, tailoring itineraries around prayer and meal times. Arabic-speaking guides accompany visitors to ensure a comfortable and barrier-free experience.
2. Everland
A comprehensive theme park designed for all ages
Located near Seoul, Everland is Korea’s largest theme park. It features attractions for children, thrill rides for teenagers, and parades and gardens for families to enjoy together. The zoo and safari world provide special experiences for children, while adults can take in seasonal flower festivals, shows, and photo opportunities at a more relaxed pace.
With its seasonal parades and events, Everland has become a favorite among Arab families. YallaKOREA ensures a smooth visit by securing tickets in advance, arranging private vehicle transfers, and guiding clients to Muslim-friendly dining options.
3. Gyeongbokgung Palace
An immersive cultural and historical experience
As the main royal palace of the Joseon Dynasty, Gyeongbokgung offers a vivid glimpse into Korea’s traditional architecture and court culture. YallaKOREA enhances this visit by providing hanbok (traditional Korean attire) experiences for men, women, and children. Walking through the palace grounds in hanbok has become particularly popular among Arab women, many of whom share these photos on social media.
Arabic-speaking guides provide more than historical explanations. They also introduce guests to aspects of Korean family values, daily customs, and traditional etiquette—turning the tour into both a cultural and educational experience for parents and children alike.
4. Namsan Seoul Tower(N Seoul Tower)
A landmark view of Seoul for the whole family
Namsan Seoul Tower is one of the capital’s most iconic landmarks, offering panoramic views of the city skyline from its observation deck. It is especially popular with families looking to capture photos together and enjoy a relaxed outing. Nearby attractions include the cable car, walking trails, the “Locks of Love” photo spot, and souvenir shops—making it an easy, lighthearted stop for families with children.
A sunset visit offers a particularly memorable experience, with Seoul’s skyline glowing in golden hues. To ensure accessibility, YallaKOREA arranges private transportation and plans routes that accommodate older family members. On-site, Arabic-speaking guides provide context about Namsan’s history and Seoul’s development while encouraging family interaction throughout the visit.
Through these carefully designed programs, YallaKOREA has positioned itself as a trusted partner for Arab families seeking not only sightseeing but meaningful cultural experiences in Korea. By combining nature, tradition, and leisure with cultural sensitivity, these tours ensure that every member of the family feels welcomed and included.
