Patrick was an excellent tour guide! Had heaps of fun facts and recommendations before each location. The day had a great diversity of 3 activities/locatione which I wouldn't have seen myself if not part of the tour. I just wish we could've had longer at each place, which is impossible for a 12 hour tour.
The tour guide, Patrick, was great. Very informative, helpful and friendly. The tour was organized well however we were disappointed in the amount of time spent at Mt. Seorak. It was a tiny portion of the day (only a little over an hour instead of the 2.5 scheduled) and we spent the rest of the day at highly commercialized Nami Island and driving. The tour was meant to stop at Shinheungsa Temple but since we went to a new location for the fall foliage we didn’t see it. It was not made clear on the itinerary that this would not be included. We didn’t do enough research on what Nami Island is - I encourage you to research and understand it to be sure it’s right for you before choosing this tour.
I had a wonderful experience on the Mount Seorak and Nami Island day trip! Everything was excellent, from the booking process to the end of the tour. The information on TripAdvisor was very clear, detailed, and accurate, especially the meeting location and instructions. The guides arrived right on time at 6:00 a.m., and everything was professionally organized from the beginning. A special thank-you to our tour guide, Sean (Sungsoo), who was truly exceptional! His English was fluent, his instructions were always clear, and he was incredibly friendly, patient, and genuinely kind to everyone. He made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the trip. Honestly, he is one of the best tour guides I have ever met! The itinerary was very well planned. We were taken to the best spots at Mount Seorak to enjoy its beautiful scenery. The restaurant was also a great choice, and the food was delicious. I especially appreciated that there was absolutely no pressure to shop or buy anything. Sean kept us informed throughout the day about the schedule and expected return time, and everything went exactly as planned. It wasn’t just me who enjoyed the trip. Everyone in our group seemed happy and well taken care of. The entire experience was smooth, comfortable, and thoroughly enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Korea. And if you get Sean (Sungsoo) as your guide, you are especially lucky! Thank you, Sean, and the entire team, for making my trip to Korea so memorable! — Aekyung Oh
It was a good trip with Ki as our guide. He is very informative and helpful.
Ki was a great guide. He was helpful, make sure everyone had an amazing autumn experience.
Great tour! Amazing sights and informative information! Ki was an excellent tour guide!
Ki was a very knowledgeable guide and I had a lot of fun exploring. The hikes were awesome and not too hard but good to get steps in and the views are amazing.
My tour guide Ki is very good. The trip is enjoyable & a lot of great tips from Ki. Thanks you!
Ki was kind and friendly, also was very accommodating. This will be a great taste run for 설악산 하이킹, 남이섬, and 고요수목원 if you aren’t sure what to choose or where to go. It will give you a brief but overall experiences for each attraction. Overall, it was a long but great trip (ensure to take a nap on the bus during transition from and to).
Overall it was a great experience, but the itinerary was a bit rushed.
Ki was great and made sure we were on schedule. He also was great at explaining the history of behind things we saw.
Great and very nice guide :) !!
This is a great tour for a taste of Korean nature and mountains. It is a long day but very worth it. Ki, our guide did an amazing job with the tour! He was very personable and knowlegeable, and worked very hard to ensure a timely and smooth trip. Thank you.
Ki was a great tour guide. He is very helpful and made the trip seamless. I enjoyed the hiking and the morning calm garden the most. Ki was very accommodating, kind, and kept the tour fun.
The tour was well-paced, and the selection of sights was excellent. Our guide, Shawn, was kind and punctual. However, I have concerns about the safety of the driving. He was often using his phone while driving, proceeded through multiple red lights, and repeatedly weaved through traffic. This unprofessionalism detracted from the overall experience.
It’s a full day tour and glad we got an early start at 6 am from Seoul. We got to Seorak San around 8:30 beating the crowds. The hike in that mountain along the canyon and river with autumn foliage was the highlight of the tour. Nami Island was second stop and very crowded. The island although lined with nice trees seemed artificial to me. The Morning Calm Garden was very peaceful and enjoyable. Quite a contrast from Nami. Ki, our guide did a great job leading a large group. His anecdotes about Seoul and culture were amusing. I would book again with him and this company.
This day tour to Seoraksan, Nami Island, and the Garden of Morning Calm was absolutely wonderful and highly recommended! The autumn scenery along the way was breathtaking, especially the beautiful golden maple leaves and ginkgo trees. The vibrant autumn colors created such a romantic and picturesque atmosphere. Every spot looked like a postcard, and I couldn’t stop taking photos! A special thank you to our tour guide, Ki! Ki was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The explanations about the history, culture, and local stories of each attraction were interesting and engaging. Ki was also very warm and helpful, making the entire trip enjoyable and relaxing. The itinerary was well organized, allowing us plenty of time to appreciate the beautiful scenery. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience filled with stunning views and wonderful memories. Thank you, Ki, for making this trip so special! Highly recommended to anyone who wants to experience the beauty of autumn in Korea.
Thank you so much for the tour! The locations were incredibly beautiful and colourful. A special thanks to our guide, Ki— he was always friendly, positive, and ready to help.
Has a great experience on this tour and Ki our tour guide made it really informative and fun. He shares helpful tips and is always so friendly. His planning and timing was perfect.
We had an amazing day. The timing was just perfect and organized and we visited such beautiful places. Our guide, Ki, is super friendly and shared so many interesting info and advices about Korea. My favorite part was Seoraksan Park, and the Garden, the foliage was the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. I definitely recommend this experience! ✨
The tour was awesome! Our guide Ki was excellent and very helpful. Highly recommend, especially during autumn foliage 🍂
I spent a very nice day with Ki, our guide. The day started early but it was necessary in order to fully enjoy the places visited and at the end it was really worth it. The scenery is stunning especially with all these autumn colors ! I would definitely recommend it to anyone ! Thank you Ki !
We had an amazing day. Our tour guide Ki was fantastic. We would definitely recommend taking this tour. Ki was so nice and always helpful. He knew heaps about each of the sites we went to.
Ki was a fantastic guide for this tour, explaining all the destinations in detail. He is funny too. I enjoyed the trip today and would recommend.
KE was a great guide, since he could keep the group together and leave enough time for everything. :)
Patrick and Lewis were great operators even though we had a problem in the beginning it was all solved and everything went as planned. Patrick is handsome.
Great trip!! Patrick is very insightful and manages the time very well. Also, Jin is fun and helpful.
Great tour with seoraksan in the Autumn and the zip line being the main highlights Patrick was a great tour guide and had interesting information and stories for us along the way. Nice to meet another Irish Paddy in Korea as well.
Patrick was an amazing guide to this well designed tour. A long day made easy by him.
Amazing Patrick If you are in Seoul and want to do a trip outside the city inside the nature, but also enjoying good food, this is the tour for you. Fabulous spots: mountain, tracking, island and garden and a amazing lunch. Patrik, the tour guide, is well prepared, professional, speak a very good English and he is very supportive. You have only to accept to wake up very early (tour start at 6 am) Thanks amazing Patrick
It was a wonderful experience and seoroksan was absolutely beautiful. Sean was the best guide. All the time on the road was worth it.
Patrick did a great job and was very accommodating when we had to adjust our plans due to an injury.
Patrick was so amazing. Knowledgeable, Humorous, and so handsome. He was attentive to the people who booked and was clear with instructions. I would book another trip with him the next time I am in Korea.
The trip went very well according to the schedule and the guide was very good
Yohan is a great tour guide who provides exceptional care. They were incredibly patient with all our questions and made sure everyone felt safe and included throughout the entire journey
was a really great experience..our guide Patrick was really helpful and everything was well organised
Yohan is really friendly and a very lovely guide. The tour allows us enough time to explore the locations on our own.
The itinerary was perfectly planned from start to finish. Seoraksan National Park was absolutely breathtaking, and Shaun gave us excellent tips for exploring the stunning grounds and Shinheungsa Temple. After spending a wonderful afternoon wandering through the beautiful landscapes of Nami Island, we finished the day at the Garden of Morning Calm, which was the perfect, peaceful finale to an incredible journey. Shaun was highly organized, energetic, and kept us engaged with fantastic insights throughout the day while ensuring everyone was safe and comfortable. I couldn't have asked for a better experience or a better guide!
It is a long day, but it does give you so much of the area. Just be well rested and prepared for long drives.
Patrick was an excellent tour guide. He knows a lot about the history and the local culture. I had so much fun at Nami Island, the Garden, and the mountains. I had a great time with the lunch too. I highly recommend.
This was so fun and our tour guide was the best. The views were absolutely unreal from the mountain top!
We went on the full day tour to Seoraksan and Nami Island with Rail Bikes. Patrick was our guide and he did a wonderful job! He was very knowledgeable and did a great job explaining information during the tour. We were travelling with a young child and he was very kind and thoughtful with his recommendations throughout the day. I would highly recommend this tour.
Patrick is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. His tour is great, fun and well organised. Look forward to another trip by Patrick.
Amazing experience! Although it was during the heat wave we really enjoyed our time with Patrick. He was easy to talk to and we learned a lot about the region. The place that we eat lunch was so local and tasty. Would recommend!
Patrick was a great guide. He is funny and personable. He gauged the interest level of the group and provided the right amount of info.
We had an unforgettable day visiting Mt. Seorak, Nami Island, and the Korean Garden with our tour guide, Mr. SB. His enthusiasm and storytelling made the entire experience fun, warm, and memorable. He went out of his way to ensure we could enjoy the zipwire to Nami Island, which was such a highlight!The restaurant he chose for us was excellent, and the whole day felt perfectly organized. Mr. SB personally drove us throughout the tour, and he did this with great skill and care.Thank you, Mr. SB, for making this day so special your energy and dedication turned it into a truly wonderful experience!
Our excursion to Mt. Seorak was delightful. The rock formations were magnificent, and the ascent provided a pleasant trek, culminating in a breathtaking panorama. Nami Island proved entertaining, noteworthy for its status as a microstate. The Korean Garden featured an array of unfamiliar flora. This experience is highly recommended. Our driver, SB, significantly enhanced the overall journey.
Patrick and his team were wonderful. Even before the trip, he checked in to make sure we knew how to get to the meeting location. Then, throughout the day, they gave us great information and instructions on the sites and schedule. We can’t thank them enough for making this excursion memorable, from the hiking, to the ferry, and the rail bikes…what a day of beautiful sites and fun adventures!
Really enjoyed this tour especially being able to hike Mt Soreak. Ki was an amazing tour guide, highly recommend going with him if you can
