Seoul City Tour Bus is a fully air-condition, nice seat and they provide you well English speaking tour guide in the bus. This bus will take you to the most popular attractions all around Seoul city. They provide 3 courses. There are Downtown Tour, Palace Tour and Nigh Tour. You can buy the tickets on the board instead you buy it at the other ticketing counter. They offer you 2 types of ticket which are Single ride (adult - 5,000 won, children - 3,000 won) and One Day Ticket (for Downtown Tour and Palace Tour) which will cost you about 10,000 won for adult and 8,000 won for children. It is cheap!
We decided to take One Day Ticket since we wished to visit entireSeoul. The route and the place visit for Downtown Tour and Palace Tour course is not much different. Seoul City tour bus will take you to 5 palaces instead of 3 palaces with Downtown Tour course. The other places offered by Palace tour are Korea Press Center, Kyobo Book Center and Seoul Museum History which are located nearby the Palace. You have to walk for 5 minutes or cross the road to go there.. Otherwise, I recommend you to take the Downtown Tour Course and it is enough to cover all attraction places around the Seoul. The tour guide in the bus can speak korean and english. But most of the time they speak korean since all the people in the bus are korean. They will speak english when they realize the existence of foreign visitors in the bus. This bus also provides you multilingual guide service via individual headphones and it is present to you during on board of the bus. It will take only 10 to 15 minutes waiting for the next bus at the place you stop. You won’t wait longer for the bus to take you to other places since the bus will run at the first stop in every 30 minutes. Theme: Bus

A tour begins every 25 minutes at the bus terminal. Tourists with a day ticket can hop on and off an unlimited time from any bus at any of the designated tour-bus stops.
Tickets can be purchased with cash on the bus. The price isn't that much. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

The Seoul City Bus Tours are a great way to see the sights in Seoul. There are two tours - Downtown and Palace. You can purchase tickets on the bus which you get at stops clearly identified by blue poles marked in English. You can get on and off the buses as often as you wish for an entire day. You can choose what you want to see and spend as much time as you wish at every sight rather than being on an organized tour's schedule. Audio tours in a number of languages are provided while on the bus. Even if you never get off the bus it's a good way to see the city. Leave a Comment Theme: BusWebsite: Google: Seoul City Bus Tour

The Seoul City Tour Bus is a convenient way to get your bearings and see all of the major sights in Seoul. For one price of 10,000 Won, you can get a ticket for a full day of unlimited rides. The bus stops at about 15 major sites in the downtown area including two palaces; the markets of Dongdaemun and Namdaemun; the shopping areas of Myeongdong, Itaewon, and Insadong; the Blue House (President's home); and both Yongsan and Seoul Stations. The bus also stops at about 15 of Seoul's largest hotels. The whole route takes about two hours if you do not get off the bus. You could easily make this an all-day sightseeing event if you get off the bus at your favorite attractions and take photos or shop. With an all-day ticket you can get on and off the bus as often as you wish.
Seoul City Tour Bus stops have English signs and are painted with a distinctive blue and red design. At any stop, just pay the driver, and he will issue your ticket. Buses run from 0900 to 2100. Leave a Comment
