awesome experience with the tour guide who setup my schedule! . my tour guide mention there was a few options that were more for family. he advised me to go with the garden and I was the only one on today's schedule. I worked with him and decided on the garden,Nami island and Seoul sky tower. it was set all in one day. I enjoy it overall.

LEGOLAND Resort is the epitome of kindness!!! It was our family of four's first trip to Chuncheon, and despite some excitement and worries, it was a 100-star experience from the moment we arrived until the moment we left!!! The hotel's cleanliness, the staff's service-mindedness, everything made for an amazing trip. Thanks to Klook for providing such a cost-effective experience! ^^

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.

Overall, Klook Korail Pass is very user-friendly. Once purchased, you will receive a voucher that you can use to redeem and book the train ticket on the Korail website, which is very easy. Additionally, you can choose your seat in advance.

Used this service twice now, great service each time! Arrived right on time and left on time as well :) takes about 1.5hrs in the morning to arrive as said, I think the drive back depends on the traffic that day. Driver just asks for name for confirmation, small 18-person bus ^^ Beautiful island and visit every time I’m in Korea!

Our driver James as an absolute gem. He arrived early at our hotel, communicated to us beforehand. Chatted with us as he drove and shared facts about the area and the places we visited. We did Alpaca World, then Nami Island then Gangchon Rail Bike.

Driver details were provided prior pick up. Miss Cheongmi was punctual and was very pleasant the whole day. She included restroom and meal stop-overs in our itinerary. She also offered to get us entry passes for Alpaca World, Nami Island and Morning calm, and she volunteered to exchange our vouchers with actual park tickets. She assisted the kids with their jackets and bags when riding and getting off the vehicle. She even got us alpaca stickers from the park and gave the kids snacks on our way home. The car was clean and very cozy. The whole experience was seamless and we had to exert very little effort which made our day less tiring and worthwhile. We were 3 hours in excess of the 9 hour agenda, but we did not have any issues with Miss Cheongmi. This is definitely one of the best bookings that I've made here.
