I had such a fun time! Jessica was kind enough to guide me to catch up because I was late. She was an awesome tour guide, and I enjoyed all the trivia that she shared to us to get to know the village more. It was informative but not boring, she was very dynamic but not loud. This tour was also recommended to me by a friends, and I now know why. Highly recommended, very solo traveler friendly!

Bought this pass for a round trip journey between Seoul and Busan as it was slightly cheaper than buying two direct tickets from both cities. There was no need to print the tickets out after reserving seats on the Korail website. Just need to check which platform it is at the station and hop onto the train.

It is really recommended to watch the Seoul Nanta Show. There are special percussion performances combined with funny kitchen cooking and silent dialogue plots. Even if you don’t understand Korean, you can still get involved in the show!

Seoul Transfer Card A must-have travel card for traveling in Seoul! Although it is only 24 hours, as long as it is combined with Hanbok + Gyeongbokgung Palace, Moonlight Music Cruise, Walkerhill Theater of Light, and Lotte Land the next day, it will be worth it!

It’s my first time to visit Seoul and I recommend this one for visiting historical sites, as well as a free Hanbok experience. The roller coaster in the amusement park is quite fun, but it takes a long time to wait.

The directions are very clear, and there is no language barrier when exchanging tickets on site. You only need to follow the order number to exchange tickets. It is very convenient. The show is also very exciting. Highly recommended.
