"Most you'll pay is $50!" Trains Tip by itsCharlie

Trains, Seoul: 14 reviews and 22 photos

 
 

It's unbeleivable how cheap the train is in Korea. Even the bullet train! You can buy tickets for regular trains a few minutes before departure- but buy in advance for bullet train or ESPECIALLY for long weekends. If there are no seats- you can buy a "standing" ticket. Sometimes, yes, you'll have to stand or find a place to sit on the floor. But often there are extra seats... but for 3,500W for 3 hours- who's complaining!
TIP: there's a lever under the seat so you can turn the seats to face each other if travelling with friends! Plus there's a snack and beer cart that comes around.
