This venture is geared to promote Korea MICE (Meeting, Incentives, Conference and Exhibitions) tourism to Philippine corporations and travel agents handling incentive tours.
According to KTO, it is glad to announce its support guidelines to Philippine local travel agencies to help give their clients a lucrative incentive tour experience in Korea.
Groups of more than 10 people who stay more than 2 days in Korea will be provided services ranging from souvenirs to financial subsidies according to group sizes.

We are expecting more incentive groups visiting Korea and further more information, we do in-house seminar in your company to brief about Korea incentive tour.
