Jeonnam Province Launches 'Namdo Hanbakwi 2020 Winter Product'

Operation Starts from the 13th

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Jeonnam Province announced on the 8th that it will newly launch and operate the ‘Namdo Hanbaki 2020 Winter Package’ from the 13th to March 1st.

Namdo Hanbaki, now in its 7th year of operation, first piloted a winter package in January and February last year.

Despite being the off-season for travel in winter, 1,038 people used the 12 courses, with an average of 43 passengers per 45-seat bus, achieving great success.

Based on this positive response, the province will officially operate the winter package starting this year. This allows tourists to use Namdo Hanbaki in spring, summer, fall, winter, and year-round.

The Namdo Hanbaki winter package is composed of a total of 9 courses, including foreigner courses, with the main theme of sea travel featuring outdoor trekking along the coast, taking advantage of Jeonnam’s relatively warm winter climate.

Courses include the ‘Chilsan Bridge Tour’ crossing the newly opened Yeonggwang-Muan Chilsan Bridge to enjoy the West Sea, the ‘Sol Beach Coastal Road VS Jeopdo Well-being Road Tour (Haenam, Jindo)’ featuring a showdown of premium coastal views, the new fantasy ‘Angel Island Tour (Shinan)’ crossing the Cheonsa Bridge, and the ‘Thumbs Up Tour for All Ages (Haenam, Wando)’ combining the best sea and the largest subtropical forest.

For the first time in this winter package, a combined product linking KTX and four Namdo Hanbaki courses called Namdo Hanbaki Saeba Tour (Dawn Train Sea Tour) was launched to make it easier for tourists from the metropolitan area and other cities and provinces to enjoy Namdo Hanbaki.

The KTX-linked Namdo Hanbaki Saeba Tour consists of taking the KTX high-speed train to Gwangju Songjeong Station and then enjoying the Namdo Hanbaki bus tour. It is a travel product that allows a one-day Jeonnam sea trip with affordable fares and convenient access from KTX stations.

The usage fees for the Namdo Hanbaki winter package and Saeba Tour are 11,900 KRW and 36,100 KRW to 20,300 KRW, respectively.

The Saeba Tour price includes both the one-way KTX fare and the Namdo Hanbaki usage fee.

There are fare differences depending on the KTX departure station. The departure stations include a total of 8 stations: Haengsin Station, Seoul Station, Yongsan Station, Gwangmyeong Station, Osong Station, Gongju Station, Iksan Station, and Jeongeup Station. Based on Yongsan Station, you can take KTX train 505 departing at 6:30 AM.

Detailed product information and reservations are available on the Namdo Hanbaki website, Kumho Express Namdo Hanbaki call center, and LetsKorail travel product corner (Jeolla area), and the product operation starts from the 13th.
