I recently had the pleasure of participating in a tour organized by Klook to Mount Seorak in South Korea, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Our tour guide, Martin, was incredibly kind, friendly, and remarkably informative, ensuring we were well aware of the various options available to us throughout the trip.I opted for the cable car ride to ascend Mount Seorak, a decision that I found immensely rewarding. The ascent provided breathtaking views, and once at the top, the hiking and climbing opportunities were both invigorating and awe-inspiring. The panoramic vistas from the mountain were simply spectacular, offering a feast for the eyes and a profound sense of tranquility.Overall, my time spent at Mount Seorak was thoroughly enjoyable, leaving me with lasting memories and a deep appreciation for the natural beauty of the area. I am eagerly looking forward to the possibility of returning during the winter season to experience the mountain's charm in a different light.

We had so much fun on this tour and David was such an amazing guide! He gave us heaps of tips for travelling in Korea and made our group feel very at ease. The itinerary was well planned and we managed to get through the activities in good time. Definitely could not have gotten this much out of the day without the tour, would recommend 👍
