does anyone happen to know of a travel agency in seoul that accepts foreign (in this case american) credit cards? most seem to prefer bank transfers, but i'm really hoping to be able to pay with my international visa card this time. thanks in advance for your help.

I use a travel agency back home. I call them up and tell them exactly what I want and I never get any surprises because of the language barrier.

M TOUR. Two years ago I went to Holland from here. I booked it through M Tour. I used my Visa Card. They were really cool to me as well. They gave me a full day layover in Malaysia and encouraged me to go out of the airport and see things, plus they even gave me a letter to give to a shrink who gave me sleeping pills to pass out on the plane. More than I wanted, all I wanted was to use my Visa Card.

Here, call this number.

This was two years ago and they were located in Bucheon, nonetheless, I think they have offices all over the place.

They also gave me a really cool passport cover which made it look like I was Korean, because my passport said Republic of Korea. That made for a really interesting time going through customs at Incheon. You should have seen the looks on the officials faces when they saw me with a ROK passport and then opened it up to see USA over my photograph.

Xanadu travel in Itaewon accepts foreign credit cards, although you will have to go in person.
