The experience
A full day outside Seoul: Seoraksan National Park, Nami Island and the Garden of Morning Calm.
A long day away from the city, covering the UNESCO-listed Seoraksan National Park, the ferry-only Nami Island made famous by Winter Sonata, and the landscaped Garden of Morning Calm — three genuinely different kinds of scenery in one booking.
The route runs by air-conditioned minivan or bus with an English-speaking guide throughout, plus the ferry crossing to Nami Island.

Who this suits
A good choice when it matches the way you want to use the city.
- Travellers who want mountains, an island and a garden in a single day rather than three separate bookings.
- A definitive escape from the city on a trip that already covers Seoul itself.
- Autumn and spring visits, when foliage and blossom are at their best.

A few essentials for the day.
- Not wheelchair accessible and not recommended for travellers with back problems.
- The Seoraksan cable car may not operate depending on weather; during peak autumn foliage (20 October to 4 November) it is substituted with an easy 1 to 1.5-hour hike through Jujeongol Valley — proper footwear recommended.
