Fun Nami island , Garden of calm trip - This was very well paced and good trip. Small group size makes thing easier:). Our guide Young Mi is excellent. She was with us throughout. Took amazing pics on her phone and sent them to us. She knew all the beautiful picture spots. She is patient and gives good free time to spend around. We would definitely recommend her to anyone visiting Seoul.

Beautiful - It was a wonderful and incredibly beautiful tour package! Visited Nami Island which has a lot to offer significantly, Cable ride going top of the mountain overlooking the picturesque city, mountains and river and thirdly the heavenly botanical garden loaded with different varieties of plants and beautiful colorful flowers to die for. It was serenely relaxing. Our tour guide “Young” was very friendly and accommodating and spent extra mile to cater our needs. Explained everything, every significant landmark, places, events and etc. I would highly recommend this tour as their first priority as a day trip in visiting South Korea and surely you’ll never regret it. A million thanks to our guide “Young” and to the driver! We went October 09, 2023.

A Wonderful Autumn Day in the Mountains, Island and Secret Garden. Highly recommended! - Our Guide was Ms Young Mi, who gave us clear instructions, funny jokes, lollies and amazing photos she shared from her own mobile phone. The Samaksan Mountain Cable Car was not as good because of the fog, but the Nani Island was really enjoyable. And the Garden of Morning Calm had magnificent Autumn views to behold! Oue EXCELLANT Guide made it fun!
