Came here with my partner last week. Gotta say, the gardens are literally STUNNING – like, every corner is a photo op. Our guide, Mina, was super chill, didn’t rush us even tho it got a bit crowded after lunch. Rail bike was soooo much fun. My legs are still feeling it but totally worth the giggles. Weather was muggy, bring water! Def coming back with my sis.

Honestly one of the best day trips we had in Korea. The Garden of Morning Calm is just magical, especially early in the morning before busloads arrive. Nami Island felt a bit touristy but the tree-lined paths are still dreamy. Our guide, Leo, took so many group pics for us (pro skills, lol). Oh, and don’t miss the rail bike, even if you’re feeling lazy!

Took the tour with my family (kids 7 and 10). Loved the island, but the ferry lines were a bit too long for my taste. Still, the kids loved feeding the squirrels, and our guide Jenny cracked us up with random facts. Bring snacks if ur traveling with little ones, not a ton of food options at the garden.

With transfers from Seoul, head to the moon-shaped Nami Island and see tall trees that see the changing seasons of Korea and go on a bike ride through tunnels at Gangchon Park.

For a touch of nature, wander through Korea’s largest garden, the Garden of Morning Calm, as your guide shares fascinating insights into 5,000 plant species and seasonal blooms.

Add a European twist to your journey with Petite France’s charming European buildings and Italia Village's themed shows, bringing a taste of continental flair to your tour.

Animal lovers can opt for Alpaca World, where you can meet playful alpacas and foxes, watch them roam freely, and even feed them up close.

The garden is beautiful, but the rail bike is the real highlight – so much fun! Got a bit sweaty, so maybe skip jeans. Our guide, Chloe, was kind and explained stuff in English and Mandarin. If you don’t like walking, this trip might feel long. Btw, no food allowed inside some parts of the garden.

Good trip overall but honestly, the crowds on Nami were a bit much for me. We waited ~30min for the ferry. Guide was helpful and friendly, but felt a little rushed everywhere. I liked the garden, very peaceful if you find a quiet corner. Rail biking was ok, but my friend thought it was too short.
