All about the trip

Join us for a fun day of sightseeing and adventure at Mt.Seorak and the East Sea. On this tour, you will have a private vehicle, along with a licensed, English-speaking tour guide. Our guide will show you around the town like a local, avoiding large tourist traps. With your guide, you will venture to Mt.Seorak, the East Sea, and the Yeonggeumjeong Sunrise Pavilion. To begin, our guide will pick you up from your hotel in Seoul and make the journey to Mt.Seorak. Your private guide will accompany you throughout the trip and help whenever needed.

Experience the breathtaking landscapes of Mt. Seorak, locally known as “big snow mountain.” Mt. Seorak is the third highest mountain in South Korea, located in the Gangwon Province; the peak reaches to 1,708 meters! We will begin by taking the cable car to the peak, offering an expansive scenic view of the area. The cable car offers a stress-free round-trip journey up the mountain and departs every 7 minutes. On the mountain lies the ruins of the Gwongeumseong Fortress, dating to the 10th century. This mountain is rich in historical legend as well as rare plants and animals such as the semi moon chest bears. Mt. Seorak has been designated by UNESCO as a “biosphere reserve”; because of its various ecosystems on the mountain. This mountain is a tremendous sight to behold. After our time at the moment, you can enjoy lunch at the mountain or elsewhere.

Our next stop will be the beautiful Yeonggeumjeong Sunrise Pavilion. This area offers a spectacular view of the East Sea, also known as the Sea of Japan. From here, you will see Sokcho city and the nearby island of Jodo in Japan. Watch the fishing village wake up with the sunrise and carry out their daily work.

This tour offers a majestic and peaceful view of Korea's daily life. Join us for a lovely adventure and discover Korea's wonders!
