Korean Tourism Organization (KTO) and Jeju Tourism Organization have entered into a Memorandum of Understaning (MoU) along with Cathay Pacific Airways, Kim’s Travel and a consortium of ten Indian travel companies, to promote Jeju Island as a MICE destination in India.

Jeju Island is located 130 km off the coast of South Korea and is blessed with subtropical forests, lava caves, sandy beaches, craters and the Halla Mountain. Jeju’s eco-style accommodation, nature-based tours, and the fact that it does not require a visa from Indian travellers for a stay of three months makes it an ideal choice for MICE travel.

Moon Kyeong-Ho, Director-Marketing Business, Jeju Tourism Organization said, “For incentive groups, we offer a wide range of team building and leisure activities such as horseback riding, golfing, scuba diving, amusement parks, yachting and wind surfing. We are looking forward to welcoming over 20 million tourists to Jeju Island in the coming year. We are looking at our partners to promote the destination in India and make it a preferred choice among Indian travellers.”

Lee Jae Sang, Director, KTO – New Delhi Office, said, “Jeju is a world-class destination. Jeju Island witnessed over 2.3 million inbound arrivals last year. This year, we expect more than 24,000 Indian arrivals and over 300 incentive groups from India.”
