Been to Seoul many times but this is my 1st time booked my ski trip through KLOOK. Decided to buy the full package that include 1 night stay. It's my best choice ever, we really enjoy the whole trip from tour guide, transportation, hotel.. Tour guide was very attentive and helpful, she speaks fluent Chinese & english so no problem for communication. The arrangement of picking up ski clothing n equipment was very organised and we even got a handsome ski coach! They have plenty of restaurants and cafe at Vivaldi Resort. We got a beautiful ski resort.view from our room! The snowy land is a must to visit as we enjoy all the ski slides so much! It's Highly recommended to get this package especially for 1st time to ski resort.

I had an amazing experience with my friends at Alpaca World, Nami Island, and Eobi Ice Valley! We went January 10th, 2026 and were able to see snow throughout all locations!
Our tour guide, Jordan, was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and attentive. He shared fascinating insights about South Korea’s history, culture, and popular foods, keeping everyone excited and engaged from our early start at 7 a.m. until the end of the day at 8 p.m. He was also fluent in Mandarin, Korean, and English, and perfectly translated everything throughout all languages!
Even when my friend felt extremely nauseous during the bus ride, Jordan went above and beyond to help us find an alternative transportation route for her. I’m so grateful for his guidance and support throughout the trip—he truly helped my friends and I create long-lasting memories!
I would 10/10 recommend this route and highly suggest requesting Jordan as your tour guide!

Thank you for rescheduling my avtivity to today! We had a wonderful time on today’s tour. My husband and I really enjoyed the experience, and our tour guide Jesse was very helpful and friendly throughout. He recommended a delicious seaweed snack that we loved, and the restaurant he suggested was Muslim-friendly, which we truly appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience and we would highly recommend this tour.

The tour guide was friendly and welcoming. Very functional at taking beautiful pictures. Made things easy. The trip was very good. Lucky with snow in all the places. It would be even better if the bus windows were clearer to see the outside scenery.

Panda and Sam are truly excellent instructors. I had trouble mastering the deceleration when skiing on two boards, and they not only supported me when I lost control but also patiently corrected and encouraged me. Then, today I challenged a slightly steeper slope. Although I tried dozens of times, I finally managed to ski to the bottom. The feeling of exhilaration is something you have to experience firsthand to understand! Today, although I stumbled and fell, thanks to the instructors' precise and easy-to-understand techniques, I managed to learn something. It was indeed a very unforgettable experience, and I will definitely be back next winter!!
