One of the most beloved tours that has allowed countless tourists to explore the essence of Korea for decades!
Departing from two pick-up sites in Seoul, 14 hours of exploring the 3 most beautiful places in Korea lies ahead! Travel to Mt. Seorak, Nami Island, and the Garden of Morning Calm with your local tour guide.
Mt. Seorak, also known as Seoraksan, was designated a Natural Monument preservation area. In December 1973, it became a national park, and in August 1982, it was named a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Unique rock formations and waterfalls create breathtaking views in Seorak.
Nami Island is famous for its romantic atmosphere, where the drama "Winter Sonata" was filmed. Enjoy walking paths lined with metasequoia, ginkgo trees, and cherry trees, as well as art installations at every corner.

5.00A fantastic way to see several attractions outside of Seoul. Andrew was a fantastic guide, super organized and helpful. Although we booked this tour to see Nami Island, we ended up loving the other sites more! The cable car to the mountain, in particular, is not to be missed.
Great day in the Nature!

5.00This is a great full day experience that included long travel times between locations along with rest stops as needed. The best part of was in the morning at the national park, where we got to experience the waterfalls, the local medicinal tea, and the local history. Our tour guide, Ari, did a great job today making sure that we were comfortable timely and got the most of our out of our experience, highly recommend!
