Whether you book your bus tickets in advance or last minute, the process is easy. Step 1: Purchase your tickets in Klook. Step 2: Open your email containing a voucher with a QR code. Step 3: Show your QR code to a ticket agent and convert your voucher into physical tickets. Step 4: Find your bus and schedule on one of the many large display screens near the waiting area. Step 5: Line up on the curb in front of the correct bus. Step 6: If you have luggage, large ones will be loaded under the bus. Smaller carry-on luggage must be stored in the luggage rack once you enter the bus. Personal bags must be kept with you. Step 7: Enjoy Korea!

Easy to use, no ticket checker at the KTX station, just need to find your train platform on the digital boards when you get there to figure out which platform to go to get on the train. Usually only shows up 10-15 min before train departure time. KTX station staff confirmed we were ok to board the train with the voucher that Klook sends of our seats from the KTX website as we were unable to use our foreign credit cards on the official KTX site.

Traveling from Seoul to Busan and vice-versa was extremely convenient with this booking! We also saved at least Php1,000 with the saver promo. The seat reservation was also smooth! It was a relief that we reserved the seats as the train was packed. We will definitely book this again when we go to Busan.

Easy to use. Just turn up at the said location on time and board the bus. Bus clearly stated “Everland” at the front so you won’t missed it. Timing wise, slightly past 9.40am as per the stated pickup time. Fast and comfortable ride to Everland.

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!
