[Klook Exclusive] Round-trip Shuttle Bus from/to Nami Island (Depart from Gangnam, Jamsil Station)
I strongly recommend this place to everyone. So calm and beautiful. Also, I highly recommend this travel agency. The driver was very, very kind, and I was able to have a really comfortable and pleasant trip. If I ever get another chance to visit Nami island again, I would definitely re-book this agency's shuttle! The driver was so kind. It was a very crowded day, and even though there was only one team between me and my mom, my mom continued to praise her for how kind she was.

[Special Offer] Nami Island Admission with Restaurants & Activities
I went to Nami Island every time, but I went improvised.Some places made reservations the day before or a few hours ago, so it was uncomfortable, but it was less than 10 minutes here, and there was a confirmation time in case of an accident. It was inexpensive and it was my first time using it, but it's nice to know a good app^^

Seoul Land & Seoul Zoo (Included Sky Lift & Elephant Train) Combo Ticket Seoul
It is my most favorite place in Seoul. Any season Seoul Grand Park is beautiful especially in spring and autumn. The lake is serene, the zoo is vast and lot of animal diversities. The mountain background is like a painting of Renoir when autumn come. The skylift is another joy. First we ascend and pass the lake then, enter the zoo area, saw the animal from aerial view. It is a recommended place to enjoy the beauty of seoul
