Seoraksan National Park tours

I availed the Mt. seorak + Nami + railbike itinerary and I enjoyed the tour so much, though it was raining in Mt. seorak we still manage to have a good experience. Nami island is in peak autumn foliage, the colors of autumn were very scenic/picturesque, kdrama feels. Gapyeong railbike is a good experience too. The tour guide is good.

it was a perfect day with beautiful fall colors. Rose was a great guide and tried her best to make sure the trip was as smooth as possible for everyone. There was ample time to hike for a few hours up the mountain.

The tour was good, our guide Young Hee was great and very friendly. Since it was a holiday for Koreans, the driver advised to go to Nami Island first. It was a good choice since both places were not so crowded when we were there.

Absolutely amazing tour! Full of content and also you will discover the real Korea! So much stunning nature and culture that will leave you absolutely speechless plus breathless! The only downside was perhaps that a little bit more time at the mountain and Naksansa would have been great, but there is of course a schedule to follow. Jordan was also a great guide, who helped out a lot!

I had such a fantastic time on this tour and highly recommend it. David was an excellent guide and brought wonderful fun energy and interesting information the whole day. the early morning is worth it for the time you get to spend at the mountain and to experience not feeling too many people around as you walk. the group were full of lovely people. Not many tours from Seoul ensure you have enough time at the mountain and we had 5 hours, enough for two hikes depending on your pace. I walked routes 3 and part of 4; stunningly beautiful views, wonderful autumnal colours, friendly people and I also had points of walking when no one was on the path. The market was great fun and full of delicious things to eat and see. if you are vegetarian, gimbap is an easy and delicious option and the place I went to gave me onion soup as well. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!

It was one of the highlights of our trip. Our tour guide, Jun, was very friendly and accomodating. He showed us where to find the best places to see, take pictures and which food and drink to try. He was extremely flexible on the time, allowing for a more relaxed trip. This trip is good for beginner and expert hikers and casual travellers alike because it offers different trails from easy to difficult and for those who don't want to walk a lot, there is an option to take a cable car so that you can enjoy the scenery on the top without much effort. Overall, highly recommend this trip! Definitely one of the highlights as a first time traveller to Korea. It is a perfect mix of adventure and cultural immersion.

The 7 day tour covered a lot of ground and we were able to see so many attractions that we wouldn't have if we'd tried to explore on our own. We had a fantastic group who all got along well - I would say the average age was mid-60s. I am 35 and still found it really enjoyable with everyone. We departed each morning between 8:30/9 and got to the hotel most nights straight after dinner, about 7:30-8:30. There were always multiple destinations each day. On longer bus rides we would stop at a rest stop every 1.5hours to have a bathroom break (no toilet on board, which was sometimes a bit of a problem) We walked 10k-15k steps every day. There was always the option to take a shorter or easier route if you prefered. There was a mixture of temples, nature, and beautiful sights. All the meals were generous and tasty and gave us the chance to try a variety of Korean foods. There was plenty for everyone. There were also stops during the day where you could buy snacks or coffee. The accomodation in 4 and 5 star hotels was always great. The breakfast buffets had a lot of choice. I would've liked a chance to enjoy the facilities more, but we were always tired after the long days. Our guide was so positive and energetic! He was a wealth of knowledge and shared a lot of history, culture and language. He was a little hard to understand at times, which my boyfriend found frustrating. He was super approachable and friendly though, and I personally really liked him. I have a lot of great memories from this trip and would definitely recommend it.

We did two itineraries in one day. Since we didn’t go to Morning Calm Arboretum, we had more time to explore Nami Island in the afternoon. However, if we walk slowly and take photos, we may not be able to reach every point. There are basically no major landmarks. Question, there are also bicycles available for rent on the island. If you are interested, you can check it out first (there are many people on Nami Island starting on Friday). It is difficult to stay that long in Seoraksan Mountain in the morning. I stopped briefly to take pictures on the way, and the time is almost over after walking back and forth. The round trip route given by the tour guide takes about the same amount of time. Because there are many people, the walking speed will slow down, so you have to make good time. It's a cost-effective option to go to two places in one day, and you don't need to spend more time waiting for transfers, but it will definitely feel like you are in a hurry, so it is not suitable for people who want to take a leisurely stroll.
