We bought Nami Island ticket via Klook and the process was easy. Just scan the qr code at the entrance. Nami Island itself is very beautiful and it is worth a visit during Autumn. One tip, do arrive early so that you can avoid the crowd. 3-4 hrs spent in Nami is more than enough

the booking was easy and meetup location was convenient. nearer the date, the company will send you video and instructions on how to reach the pickup point. Lucia, the local Korean guide, was very friendly and helped us took many nice photos! well recommended for this package.

If you want to ski , snowboard or just enjoy thrill snow slides this is the best place near Seoul . We went to snowy land with great quality slides , maximum safety, many child friendly snow slides. Lot of food options to choose. Boarded a shuttle bus from Hongdae and came back safely at 7pm . Perfect snow day near Seoul .

This is a great experience when you visit south korea for the first time. Our guide is Brendan with intern jisoo. They gave us helpful informations and some history during the tour and they are always smiling ☺️. I would do this again in another season specially in nami island and morning calm.

We had a really good time on this trip because of Rose, our tour guide. She is very thoughtful, and she likes my daughter very much. My daughter had a lot of fun on this trip. Thank you, Klook. Thank you, our tour guide Rose.

Our guide was Lanson who's fluent in English and Mandarin. He explained clearly on "what to expect" from each of the attraction that we visited. Unfortunately it's not the right season to visit Nami Island as it's Winter and the plants looked dreary. Nonetheless it's still nice to walk around in the cold weather and see the squirrels/chipmunks and rabbits roaming around freely. We zipped into the island and I think this is the highlight of the trip. It is thrilling yet breathtaking. Highly recommended to do so. Just take note that the minimum weight to go onto the zip is 45kg during winter times. Other times 35kg is the minimum. My 12yo girl nearly couldn't zip in as she's only 42kg. Thankfully, Lanson and Zipline crews were very helpful and told us what to do for her to be heavy enough to zip in safely. Alpaca land is fun too as we get unlimited petting with the friendly alpacas. Railbike is alright only, I wouldn't go again. The rest of the attractions I would highly recommend.

Though, this place is not so convenient to reach, it is really a good and special place to have close contact with alpaca. They are not smelly and tame. The restaurant on the hillside is good and the food is delicious at reasonable price. The capybara was cute too, though looked a bit lonely. Highly recommend to family with kid to visit. My kid had a wonderful memory there.Thank you very much!

Gangchon rail bike was an amazing experience. I was glad I booked on klook rather then buying on site as there were limited tickets for the time that I chose. You have to show the voucher at the counter to get a physical ticket.
