Very worth it to get this. Many available activities such as the Luge and Lotte World available to visit with just one pass. Really enjoyed visiting a few places listed in the “free” entry.

they pretty much don’t check the tickets so it was easy to use. try to board the train earlier if you have luggage as it feels up fast.

I was very satisfied with the activity itinerary. I think the tour guides Sunny and Amy provided very good service and the lunch restaurant they took us to had a lot of delicious food. I will look for them to arrange my trip next time.

In fact, this trip was booked by mistake, but I didn’t expect that the whole trip would be very good. I think the most points should be given to our tour guide! The only recommended tour guide is Sunny, who is attentive, enthusiastic and considerate. He will also take the initiative to help take photos and remind us of the best places to take photos in secret places. He will accompany us along the way and explain the local historical background! sunny is really beautiful and nice ~ give it a thumbs up. Thank you for your arrangement. I hope you can have sunny's service again if you have the opportunity.
