Things to do in Yongchu Valley

We had a great time for our Nami Island Day Trip with Martin as our tour guide. The day was so easy, relaxing and fun, especially with all his recommendations. Our favorite part was the restaurant he took us to for lunch, where we had the cheesy chicken with tteokbokki. I didn’t realize the zip line was only like 60 seconds of flight, so we didn’t end up doing it, but it did look super cool watching other people take it and the speed boat. Bike rental is super easy on the island, and made seeing the whole island a lot easier and quicker (we did the tandem couples bike). The rail bike was super cool as well and turned out being a lot easier on the hills with 4 people. Traffic was insanely terrible on the way back, but the driver was weaving between cars to get us back as quick as possible, so hats off to him as well 👏 thank you! 😊

Mr John Kim made the trip more enjoyable because of his patience towards us. we were kinda slow walking during the tour but he made it sure that will be “slow and fun”. I highly recommend to seek the assistance of Mr. John as guide and driver!

Patrick was our tour guide. And he’s handsome. Super handsome! But kidding aside, his great command in English made our trip super easy and smooth. He’s well knowledgeable and has a great personality. Although our lunch in itself was not included in the cost when we booked the trip, Patrick made reservations for us making us enjoy our dalkgalbi (grilled chicken) which is what’s famous in the Nami Island area. As for the tours themselves, for me personally we enjoyed our visits in Nami Island even if it’s a short stay there due to three other places to visit after, then the rail bike (which my kids and I truly enjoyed), kimbap making and wearing hanboks, completing our trip at Seodaemun Hongje Waterfall. I also booked other tours here in Klook for our week long stay here in Korea, but the tour we had with Patrick was the most enjoyable and relaxing in a way. Thank you so much Patrick!

it was such a very fun experience. i highly recommend this place as there’s a lot of things to do nearby. make sure to try cheese coin near the ticketing.

The railpark looks simple and the bike looks old. But the experience definitely worths it. If you are staying in Seoul, the railpark is not near the Seoul city at all. You need to plan ahead for the travel. Especially if you want to take advantage of the intercity ITX trains. Make sure you reserve those ITX train tickets ahead of time, probably should do it at the same time when you reserve the railpark tickets. I made the mistakes of not reserving the ITX train tickets first, and cannot get those tickets on the day before.

We hired a private tour for 1 day to Nami Island, Gangchon rail park and also strawberry farm, and it was a very pleasant experience for my family and I. The driver was very friendly and he was able to converse in English. He is also fluent in Korean and Chinese/Mandarin. thank you for making our trip a truly memorable one.
