The arrangements were excellent; the instructors had ski suits and equipment prepared in advance, and the return process was also very convenient. Communication beforehand was great, and the instructions were clear, making it easy to find the instructors. The Korean instructors spoke excellent English, so there were no communication issues at all. The only downside was that when we went, winter was almost over and the weather was very warm, so the snow quality on the mountain was just average.

I used AREX to and from Incheon Airport and Seoul Station, and it was super convenient. The train arrived and left on time. A huge plus is that you can check in your bags at Seoul Station if you're flying with participating airlines like Jeju Air, Korean Air, Air Busan, and others (check first if your airline is included!). The AREX line was short, and because I had already checked in at Seoul Station, I didn't have to line up at the airport check-in counters anymore. I went straight to immigration and security. Definitely a time-saver!

This is very convenient to buy, use, and follow. After buying this, you just have to locate the booth and get the physical tickets, locate the platform, give the tickets, and board the bus then you’re good. In going to the airport, just go from your pick up stop and then just give the ticket and board the bus again. No hassle at all.

At the airport counter, the staff member was very attentive when exchanging for the physical ticket. They first confirmed the destination, verified the bus number, printed the ticket, and pointed out the boarding location. The bus driver was friendly, asking for destinations before boarding and proactively helping with luggage. The bus announced station names, and if a passenger was getting off at a particular stop, the driver would provide an additional notification. The bus seats were spacious and comfortable, and it passed by many hotels, which was very convenient. Return timetables were posted at the city bus stops, making it easy for passengers to arrive early. Taking the airport bus is an excellent choice.

Always my safe and reliable ride to Everland. Complete instructions for the pickup points in Myeongdong to and from the park. Be sure to ride during your appointed time as the driver already jotted down in his tablet the names of his passengers. No chance passengers.👌

The fastest and most convenient way to travel from Busan to Seoul is by train. There’s no strict ticket checking when boarding, but it’s best to keep your ticket ready in case of random inspections. The journey takes around 2.5 hours, making it smooth and relaxing—I was even able to sleep through most of it. Just make sure to be at the boarding area early. The platform is usually announced about 15 minutes before departure, so stay alert. Trains depart exactly on time, so don’t be late!

What to know before visiting Seoul

Quick snapshot of Seoul and what draws travellers

Seoul is a lively city where cultural experiences, theme parks and observation decks dominate visitor bookings, giving the year a mix of museum, entertainment and skyline-focused activity. Demand rises and falls through the year, with clear high and low points that shape when attractions feel busiest.

Best months to visit based on crowds and prices

Klook bookings peak in May while demand dips sharply in August and September, so expect the city to feel busiest in May and much quieter in late summer and early autumn. Prices on Klook drift down through the spring and hit their lowest typical level in April and May, while the priciest month by Klook data is August. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for April or September; for a peak-season atmosphere and the busiest vibe, May is the month to pick. Note that crowds and prices diverge: demand is lowest in August even though August is typically the priciest month for activities.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines planning a Seoul trip

Most travellers from the Philippines book activities about five days ahead on average, with many last-minute options available just a day before — so you can be flexible but it helps to plan short-term. If you travel in May, consider locking in popular cultural experiences and theme-park tickets earlier in that month; if you go in April or September you can often book closer to your travel dates. Use Klook to compare dates and secure tickets when you see the price and crowd level that suit you.
