Spectacular, challenging hike! - We had the best day hiking with our guide Jimmy. The day was seamless, Jimmy picked us up on time from our hotel, picked up snacks and lunch for our group, and recommended a trail that was challenging but doable for our family. He was easy to communicate with over text prior to the excursion. He is very knowledgeable about the mountain and patient. We couldn’t have done it without him!

Fun trip up for a great time - Excellent time with Minho. Picked up continently from the hotel and grabbed food for the journey on the way. I needed a good home before a trip to Tibet and the tough route up Bukhansan was exactly what I needed. Uneven ground and very humid but with good pace. As we got higher the view became more cloudy but we met many nice people on the way. It’s not a simple climb towards the top but steady will get you there and it’s worth it. The communal lunch hang is unique and then back down to see the spectacular temples and history before the not so fun traffic back into seoul. Minho is a great guide and someone who will take good care of you on a trip to Bukhansan.
