Important Activity Notes
Three crucial things to keep in mind before you embark on this adventure:
First, don’t even think about showing up without waterproof gloves – either bring your own or be prepared to shell out 15,000 to 30,000 KRW at the rental store.
Second, if you’re under 7 or have back problems, heart issues, or are pregnant, sadly, this trip isn’t for you.
And third, don’t bother booking if the weather’s looking dodgy – this experience requires sunshine and a minimum number of travelers.
Oh, and one more thing: you can cancel up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund, but after that, it’s a no-go.
