Real experiences from real travelers
We booked the observatory ticket for 6 PM and it was perfect. Watching the sun go down and the city lights come on was magical. The mobile voucher worked instantly at the kiosk. Highly recommend!
The view is amazing, definitely the best in Seoul. We bought the combo with the cable car which saved time. It was very crowded at the elevator, but the staff managed it well.
My fiancé proposed at the Love Locks terrace! It was so romantic. The tower observatory itself offers a stunning perspective of how huge Seoul really is. The ticket price is very reasonable.
Visited in December. It was freezing on the outdoor terrace but warm inside the observatory. The audio guide was helpful to identify landmarks. Good value for money.
Easy redemption process. We took the Namsan shuttle bus up and the cable car down. The observatory is clean, modern, and the views are unparalleled. Great photo ops.
Unfortunately, it was a smoggy day so we couldn't see very far. Check the air quality forecast before you book! The tower facilities were nice though.
We did the Ryan Cheezzzball package and my kids had a blast. The observatory view was the cherry on top. A full afternoon of fun.
The city looks like a galaxy of stars from up there. The elevator ride is super fast with a cool video on the ceiling. A bit of a queue to go down, but expected.
