Han River Night Cruise by Eland Cruise
Experience Seoul's skyline from the water on this atmospheric Han River night cruise. Choose from three different cruise options as you glide past illuminated landmarks including Yeouido, 63 Square, and Banpo Bridge. From April to October, you'll witness the spectacular Banpo Bridge Rainbow Fountain Show, where choreographed water jets dance to music and light against the Seoul night sky.
Your evening begins at Yeouido's central riverside location, where the Eland Cruise sets sail for 50 to 70 minutes depending on your chosen experience.
