"I didn’t take this tour exactly, but made some changes based on my schedule and interests and travel dates. It was my first time in Southeast Asia and I was a traveling solo female. Liz my trip consultant and contact person was so helpful and responsive to any and all my concerns and questions. It was a trip of a lifetime. I can not gush enough about the itinerary and experiences. I am completely impressed with is company and this person. Ya ya in Chang Mai and Sam in Bangkok are top notch guides. The diving in Phuket was arranged with Siam diving, a small private boat not an over stuffed crowded one. It felt like we were the only people in the ocean. Goo, GO, GO!!!!"

Cultural, High Adventure

"I've travelled with Intrepid in Vietnam, Morocco, Nepal and Egypt and had a brilliant time every time. The experience is better than most tours as you are in a small group that goes a bit more 'off the beaten track', and you don't get taken to endless shopping opportunites (i.e. a cousin's carpet shop). They also have higher ethics than most travel companies, they contribute to local charities and they avoid animal use (donkeys etc) where possible. The tour leaders we have had have all been wonderful, knowledgable and relaxed, with good english."

Klook Pass Seoul 2024: Better Than The Discover Seoul Pass?

The Klook Pass Seoul is a new travel pass that’s similar to the Discover Seoul Pass but offers greater flexibility about when you can use it. But is the Klook Pass Seoul worth the cost, or is it better to book through a tour company, use the Discover Seoul Pass, or pay as you go?

The Klook Pass Seoul is looking to beat the Discover Seoul Pass with it’s unique features, such as flexible booking dates and ability to book manage multiple passes under one account. This article dives into the benefits and features of the Klook Pass Seoul, explains how to use the pass, shows you how much you can save, and compares it to the Discover Seoul Pass.

My thoughts about whether you should buy the Klook Pass Seoul are included, as well as detailed sections that explain the pass, its features and whether or not it beats the Discover Seoul Pass.

Summary Of The Klook Pass Seoul

Below is a brief overview of the Klook Pass Seoul and how it compares to the Discover Seoul Pass. Please be aware that there are a lot of fine points that aren’t discussed in this section that I cover later on in the article that help explain these conclusions.

The Discover Seoul Pass is better because : The Discover Seoul Pass offers a wider range of attractions in Seoul, with free and discounted entry, as well as other features such as the T-Money Card. The cost of the Discover Seoul Pass is higher than the Klook Pass Seoul for the 24 hour card, but can potentially save more money, depending on your schedule.

The Discover Seoul Pass is better for : Travellers in Seoul for a short time who want to visit many premium attractions in a few days.

The Klook Pass Seoul is better because : The Klook Pass Seoul allows you to visit premium attractions in Seoul for a discounted price over a period of 30 days. This is better for travellers who are visiting Seoul for a long time, or who plan to visit on separate occasions. Less pressure to rush around Seoul before the pass expires.

The Klook Pass Seoul is better for : Travellers in Seoul that want to spread out the time spent at premium attractions over a longer time and on separate days.

Both passes will save you money on Seoul’s attractions and are designed for tourists.

Personally, I think the Discover Seoul Pass has more advantages, but the Klook Pass Seoul could be a better option for travellers who plan to visit a few attractions over a wider time frame.

Find out more about the Klook Pass Seoul in the next sections, as well as a detailed comparison of the two passes and my final thoughts.

Planning to visit Korea? These travel essentials will help you plan your trip, get the best deals, and save you time and money before and during your Korean adventure.

Visas & K-ETA: Some travellers to Korea need a Tourist Visa , but most can travel with a Korean Electronic Travel Authorisation (K-ETA). Currently 22 Countries don’t need either one.

How To Stay Connected : Pre-order a Korean Sim Card or a WiFi Router to collect on-arrival at Incheon Airport (desks open 24-hours). Alternatively, download a Korean eSIM for you travels.

Where To Stay : For Seoul, I recommend Myeongdong (convenient), Hongdae (cool culture) or Gangnam (shopping). For Busan, Haeundae (Beach) or Seomyeon (Downtown).

Incheon Airport To Seoul : Take the Airport Express (AREX) to Seoul Station or a Limo Bus across Seoul. Book an Incheon Airport Private Transfer and relax to or from the airport.

Korean Tour Operators : Tour companies that have a big presence in Korea include Klook , Trazy , Viator , and Get Your Guide . These sites offer discounted entry tickets for top attractions

Seoul City Passes : Visit Seoul’s top attractions for free with a Discover Seoul Pass or Go City Seoul Pass . These passes are great for families and couples visiting Seoul – you can save lots.

How To Get Around : For public transport, grab a T-Money Card . Save money on Korea’s high speed trains with a Korea Rail Pass . To see more of Korea, there are many Rental Car Options .

Travel Money : Use money exchanges near Myeongdong and Hongdae subway stations for the best exchange rates. Order a Wise Card or WOWPASS to pay by card across Korea.

Flights To Korea : I use flight comparison sites such as Expedia and Skyscanner to find the best flights to Korea from any country. Air Asia is a good option for budget flights from Asia.

How To Learn Korean : The language course from 90 Day Korean or Korean Class 101 both have well-structured lessons and lots of useful resources to help you learn Korean.

By adding either of these 2 add-on attractions, you can increase your savings a lot, as well as add an extra day out that’s perfect for families, couples, or anyone who loves to ride rollercoasters, play fairground games, see animals, and enjoy other theme park attractions.

How Much Does The Klook Pass Seoul Cost?

The Klook Pass Seoul comes in a range of options starting from 44,000 KRW for 2 attractions and increasing in price up to 105,000 KRW , which is the price for 4 attractions plus entry to Everland.

Here’s a table to show the costs of the Klook Pass Seoul with each of the different options to help you see which one is best for you:

To compare how much you’d normally pay for each of the main attractions and add-ons, here’s a table to see their original cost to enter each of these attractions, which is what you’d pay if you bought a ticket on-arrival at each place.

If you take the 4 cheapest attractions from the list above and added their cost together, the total would be 97,700 KRW – that’s 26,700 KRW more expensive than the cost of the 4 attraction Klook Pass Seoul. There are combinations where the pass actually costs more than the attractions separately (only when using a combination of the 3 cheapest activities), however, most combinations of attractions and add-ons would save you a lot more than you’d spend.

Example Klook Pass Seoul Itinerary

A practical example itinerary for the Klook Pass Seoul could include a day out in Jamsil to visit Lotte World Adventure and Lotte Aquarium while wearing an Ewha school uniform.

These 3 attractions are right next to each other and could be done in a day. The original cost of these attractions would be 115,000 KRW, but with the 2 attractions + Lotte World Adventure add-on, it would only cost 71,000. That would save you 46,000 KRW vs. the regular price.

Is the Klook Pass Seoul worth it? I’ll discuss more about the costs and savings later in this article, as well as give my own opinions on whether or not you should buy it. Before looking at those details, here’s a quick guide about how to use the Klook Pass Seoul.

How To Use The Klook Pass Seoul

The Klook Pass Seoul is simple to use, which makes it perfect for tourists looking to effortlessly visit attractions as they travel. The process of using the Klook Pass Seoul can be broken down into the following 4 steps.

Step 1: Choose and purchase your pass .

Choose which attractions and add-ons you want to visit from the 9 different attractions available and then select the dates you want to use the pass. The pass is valid for 30 days and you can use the selected attractions at any time within those 30 days.

Step 2: Activate your pass by reserving activities in your bookings .

This is the most important step. You need to make a reservation for each attraction that you want to use. This means you will confirm a date that you will visit that attraction on the Klook website to make sure that your ticket is reserved for you. Details of this in the next sections.

Step 3 Use your pass on any date at any activity included within the validity period.

This is the best step – go out and enjoy the attractions you’ve booked! Bring your voucher, either printed or electronically, and show it when you enter. Simple.

Step 4 Check the package details for specific inclusions.

This isn’t really a step, it’s more of a reminder. There are some conditions for attractions and it’s good to be aware of them before booking. I recommend looking at the fine print for each one when making the booking and checking again before visiting. These are usually small things like needing to redeem the ticket in a certain place or confirmation about what’s included with your ticket.

Here’s a handy visual guide from Klook that shows those 4 steps in a simplified way:

The next few sections will look at where to buy the Klook Pass Seoul, how to redeem it, and what to do if you need to get a refund.

Where To Buy The Klook Pass Seoul

You can buy the Klook Pass Seoul from the klook.com website. Once you’ve decided which combination of attractions and add-ons you want to buy and when the pass will be active from, proceed to the payment screen and enter your payment details. You can buy multiple passes together if travelling as a family.

Please note : you will need to create an account on the website to be able to use the pass.

How To Redeem The Klook Pass Seoul

After you’ve purchased the Klook Pass Seoul, you will be able to redeem the pass by making reservations for the attractions you want to visit when you visit Seoul.

You can make the reservations for the attractions in the following way:

• Log into your Klook account .
• Go to the ‘ bookings ‘ section of your account.
• Find your pass and click on the ‘ reserve ‘ button.
• Select the date you want to reserve.
• Follow all the steps to confirm your activity.
• Receive your voucher .
• Bring the voucher to the attraction.

Each attraction needs to be reserved separately, even if you’re visiting them on the same day. If you’re travelling as a family, each member needs to make the booking, too. You can buy multiple passes with one account. I recommend one person buying multiple passes in this situation so they can make all the reservations with one account.

How To Cancel The Klook Pass Seoul

If you haven’t made any reservations with your Klook Pass Seoul and decide that you want to cancel it, you can get a full refund. To be able to get a refund for the pass, you must not have validated the pass. That means you must not have made any reservations for attractions featured in the pass.

Once you have activated the pass (reserved or visited an attraction) at least once, it may no longer be possible to get a refund, even if you have remaining attractions that you did not visit.

Contact Klook customer service for refunds or changes. Log in to your Klook account and go to the Help Centre section of the website and then select ‘change booking’ or ‘cancel booking’.

Please note : once you have confirmed the dates of the activities by making a reservation, it is not possible to change those dates. However, the Klook help desk may be able to help you adjust those dates with the attraction owner. Send them a message if you need to change dates.

Klook Pass Seoul Vs. Discover Seoul Pass

The Klook Pass Seoul is essentially a more flexible version of the Discover Seoul Pass that doesn’t have fixed time limits of 24 | 48 | 72 hours. It allows you to visit the listed attractions on separate dates within a 30 day time period.

The attractions offered by the Klook Pass Seoul are mostly the same as the attractions offered by the Discover Seoul Pass. However, the Discover Seoul Pass has a wider range of attractions available, as well additional benefits such as including a T-Money Card, free transportation to or from Incheon Airport, and more.

To find out more about the Discover Seoul Pass, check out my very helpful Discover Seoul Pass Guide , which features loads of itineraries for the various time periods, as well as information about where to buy it, how to get the best price, and who it is suitable for.

Below is a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of the Klook Pass Seoul vs. the Discover Seoul Pass. There will also be a summary of whether or not the Klook Pass Seoul is worth buying at the end of this article.

Why Klook Pass Seoul Is Better Than Discover Seoul Pass

Here are the main reasons why the Klook Pass Seoul is better than the Discover Seoul Pass:

Flexible : The Klook Pass Seoul is valid for 30 days and attractions can be visited any time within those 30 days. This gives users a lot more freedom than the Discover Seoul Pass, which has fixed time limits of 24 | 48 | 72 hours once the pass is activated.

Simple : The Klook Pass Seoul is focused only on attractions in Seoul with no other features that might tempt you to use it earlier. There are also no issues of balancing activation periods and other features with the Klook Pass Seoul. You also can’t accidentally activate the Klook Pass Seoul, which can happen with the Discover Seoul Pass.

Lower Price : The 24 hour Discover Seoul Pass is 50,000 KRW for the 24 hour pass, the cheapest pass available. This is more expensive than the 2 attraction Klook Pass Seoul, which starts at 44,000 KRW. However, you can cover a larger number of activities with the Discover Seoul Pass in a 24 hour period, making it better value for money overall.

Why Discover Seoul Pass Is Better Than Klook Pass Seoul

Here are the main reasons why the Discover Seoul Pass is better than the Klook Pass Seoul:

More Attractions : There are a wider number of free attractions available with the Discover Seoul Pass than the Klook Pass Seoul. There are 56 free attractions available with the Discover Seoul Pass, but only 9 with the Klook Pass Seoul.

More Features : The Discover Seoul Pass also offers discounted entry to some attractions. Furthermore, it includes the T-Money Card features and comes with a free AREX train ride between Incheon Airport and Seoul. The Klook Pass Seoul doesn’t offer any additional benefit besides free entry to attractions.

Collectible Cards : The hugely popular Korean K-Pop group BTS have collaborated with the Discover Seoul Pass to create the highly-collectible version of Discover Seoul Pass – the BTS Discover Seoul Pass . There is no physical card with the Klook Pass Seoul, so nothing to collect.

Is The Klook Pass Seoul Worth It?

Is the Klook Pass Seoul worth the cost? Is the Discover Seoul Pass a better option for travellers visiting Korea? Should you buy a Klook Pass Seoul? Well, that all depends on what you value most when you travel.

If you are a smart traveller who is willing to spend a bit of time checking the prices of various attractions online and comparing them to the cost of the Klook Pass Seoul, then it can certainly be worth it. However, the savings probably won’t be as big as you imagined they would be.

The Klook Pass Seoul Savings Are Misleading

The Klook Pass Seoul initially seems to offer big savings on premium attractions in Seoul, saving up to 52% in some situations vs. the regular entry price. However, Klook and other online tour companies also offer discounted entry to these attractions.

The amount of money you’d actually save would be much lower if you booked attractions through the Klook website vs. booking on-arrival at those attractions.

The table below shows how much Klook charges for attractions included in the Klook Pass Seoul:

As you can see from the table above, it’s typically cheaper to book attractions through Klook instead of paying the cost of entry on-arrival.

Booking attractions ahead of time can save you a lot of money when you travel. However, using passes like the Klook Pass Seoul and the Discover Seoul Pass can potentially save you even more, especially when you consider the savings you can make on entry to theme parks.

Klook Pass Seoul Saves You Money On Theme Parks

The cost to add-on entry to Lotte World (27,000 KRW) and Everland (27,500 KRW) to the Klook Pass Seoul is much lower than the original cost to enter these theme parks and lower than the entry price offered on the Klook website. The table below compares the different prices:

The Klook Pass Seoul can save you 14,000 KRW against booking entry to Lotte World vs. booking through the Klook website. It can save you 35,000 KRW vs. the original price.

The Klook Pass Seoul can save you 10,500 KRW against booking entry to Everland vs. booking through the Klook website. It can save you 22,500 KRW vs. the original price.

Does the Klook Pass Seoul save you money vs. booking each attraction separately through Klook? That depends on which attractions you want to visit and whether you’ll add-on one of the theme park options.

Realistic Klook Pass Seoul Savings

Looking at the previous example of using the Klook Pass Seoul for a day out in Jamsil to visit Lotte World Adventure and Lotte Aquarium while wearing an Ewha school uniform, the actual savings would be less when compared to the Klook website price.

The original cost (on-arrival) of these attractions would be 115,000 KRW. The Klook website price (booked separately) would only be 82,000 KRW. The Klook Pass Seoul with 2 attractions + Lotte World Adventure add-on costs 71,000 KRW.

This means you would save 11,000 KRW , which is lower than the 46,000 KRW savings against the original cost. That’s still a good saving.

If you rented hanbok (19,800 KRW), visited Seoul’s royal palaces (not included) and later went to the nearby Alive Museum and Dynamic Maze (16,900 KRW) using the Klook Pass Seoul 2 attractions pass (44,000 KRW), you would actually pay 7,300 KRW more .

Final Conclusions

So is the Klook Pass Seoul worth it? Again, that all depends on what attractions you visit and whether you plan to book trips separately online or turn up and pay the standard entry fee.

The Klook Pass Seoul can be worth it if you want to visit a theme park and several premium attractions in Seoul. The more attractions you visit, the more you will save with the pass.

The benefit of being able to visit each attraction on separate day is a big advantage of the Klook Pass Seoul vs. the Discover Seoul Pass and allows you to plan your trip more flexibly.

Here’s an example of how you can use the Klook Pass Seoul to travel more flexibly:

Day 1 : Lotte World Adventure and Ewha school uniform rental. Spend the rest of the day exploring Seokchon Lake, Lotte World Tower, and Jamsil.

Day 2 : 63 Building and Aqua Planet 63. Spend the rest of the day exploring Yeouido and the Han River parks, night markets, and surrounding area.

Day 3: COEX Aquarium. Spend the rest of the day exploring COEX Mall, Bongeunsa Temple, and Gangnam.

The total cost of these attractions would be 87,000 KRW with the Klook Pass Seoul. The cost to book these attractions through the Klook website would be 108,600 KRW. This means you save 21,600 KRW and can split your activities over several days and travel at your own leisure.

Personally, I think the Klook Pass Seoul is worth it if you plan to visit a theme park and other attractions over several different days and want the flexibility of spreading out these big attractions.

However, if you’re in Seoul for a short time and will be doing many activities in a few days, the Discover Seoul Pass is better value for money and offers more features than the Klook Pass Seoul.

The Discover Seoul Pass Can Be Cheaper

The 3-day example above would cost 87,000 KRW with the Klook Pass Seoul. However, a 72 hour Discover Seoul Pass would only cost 90,000 KRW and you would get more benefits, including the T-Money card and freedom to enter more places for free.

If you only have a few days in Seoul and plan to visit some of the premium attractions in Seoul, the Discover Seoul Pass could save you money vs. the Klook Pass Seoul.

Tips For Using The Klook Pass Seoul

If you use the Klook Pass Seoul, here are a few tips to help you get the most out of the pass.

Plan Ahead : Work out which attractions you want to visit and when. Can you visit them more cheaply by booking tickets separately, or is the pass cheaper?
