I work in a public school and want to head out of the country during my August break, but am having trouble getting ticket prices. I live in a relativly small city with no agents that I can find. I would come to Seoul if I had time but I don't.
Question is: How can I get ahold of an English speaking travel agent in a bigger city? Any telephone numbers or an Email address would be nice.
thanks

Shoeboy,
Most of the big travel agents will post your tickets for you for free, so you don't have to go in person to pay and collect. You can pay by credit card or do a bank transfer.

The delivery is usually registered mail, so it's best to have the tickets addressed to your school so that someone is there to sign for them.

P.S. I most recently used Top Travel, and the woman I dealt with was very fast and efficient.

Also check the Korea Herald & Korea times travel sections. I'm thinking of going to Lake Baikal / Kamkatcha/ Vladivostok or Mongolia, Beijing or Japan, for the summer break. I've noticed travel agents selling package tours & flights to all of these places.
