I really enjoyed this tour. Quite often, when you have a big bus, there was about 40 people, it's s just kind of transportation and maybe a little bit of information. But Han (aka National Treasure) was different. He made sure to give us each personalized attention and make sure our questions were answered. He even made sure we got good pictures at every place that we visited. He set up a group chat so that we could share questions, comments, and photos. It was a lovely day. Make sure you wear good walking shoes Yes, there is a lot of walking. There are so many beautiful things to see.
Tour guide Sally was very informative and explained everything precisely, this was my first tour and first time holidaying solo also so this was a good first experience for me as she explained everything to us in detail from where to go and look, to where was best to eat etc. There are few trails you can do at the mountain, I chose to do the longest one first then sat and ate in the restaurant before going up in the cable car. Wrong time of year for me to travel in hindsight as it was very hot and humid combined with the Korean summer holidays so we got stuck in traffic too, nobody’s fault and we didn’t have the trip shortened either, would definitely do another tour, hopefully when it’s cooler.
Beautiful landscapes of Mt. Seorak and the sea-bounded Naksansa temple. Mr. One (his 1st name) was a PERFECT GUIDE: knowledagle, respectful of people's limitations, friendly and intelligent. Overall, I'd rate this in Top 10% of (many) tours I've taken in > 30 countries
Our guide Mr. Han was exceptional — deeply knowledgeable about Buddhism, incredibly warm, and went out of his way to take photos for everyone on the tour. The bus was comfortable, pickup and drop-off had 3 convenient Seoul locations, and communication was seamless throughout. Highly recommend this tour.
We had an amazing day visiting Mount Seorak and Naksansa Temple, and our guide, Byungok Han, made the experience truly exceptional. He was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about Korean history, culture, and local traditions. His explanations brought each destination to life and made the tour much more meaningful.
Sadly you cannot choose the weather, but despite the rain, it was a quite fun and interesting trip. There were more than enough rest stops, so do not bring any snacks. Better leave place for a raincoat or umbrella. The temples and the park are all very nice.
Worth the price, beautiful views. It rained for us but we still enjoyed our time. Guide Kim was funny
I highly recommend it, especially for solo travelers, because you get a lot more information about the destination. Thanks to the guide!
Was ok, too long the trip from the city to the mountains In the morning they pick up us on a point, but at return they drop us on a diferent location
It very nice and unforgetable moment in our one day tour with Sally as the tour leader. She is very kind and warm while lead the group. Thank you Sally in making our great holiday in Seoul.
