2026–27 Winter Season: December 2026 – February 2027


❄️ Winter in Korea — Let’s Go Skiing!

You don't need to be an experienced skier to enjoy Korea's winter slopes.

Our ski tours are designed for everyone from first-time beginners to experienced skiers.

And if skiing isn't really your thing? You can still enjoy the snow, winter scenery, cafés, local food, and other experiences around the ski resort.

🎿 No Equipment? No Problem!

You don't need to travel to Korea carrying ski equipment.

Rental arrangements are available for items such as:

  • Skis & Ski Boots
  • Ski Clothing
  • Helmet
  • Goggles
  • Gloves

Lift tickets can also be arranged depending on your ski program.

We'll help you understand what you need before your ski day so you can simply arrive and enjoy the experience.

Private Ski Lesson, Free Skiing and a Flexible Winter Day — Your Way

Vivaldi Park Private Ski Tour from Seoul · 1 Day

View Sample Itinerary

Read more

Enjoy a full winter day at Vivaldi Park Ski Resort with your own private transportation and personalized ski experience.

Depart from your hotel in Seoul and travel comfortably to Vivaldi Park, one of Korea's most popular ski resorts for a day trip from Seoul.

The standard program includes a 2-hour private ski lesson in English followed by 2–3 hours of free skiing, but this is only a starting point. Because this is a private tour, your lesson time, free-ski time, and overall itinerary can be customized around you.

A Typical Private Ski Day

  1. Seoul Hotel Pick-up Meet your driver or guide at your hotel in Seoul and travel by private vehicle to Vivaldi Park. After arriving at the resort, you'll have time to prepare your ski equipment and clothing before heading to the slopes.
  2. 2-Hour Private Ski Lesson in English Your standard program includes a 2-hour private ski lesson in English. For beginners, the lesson focuses on basic techniques and getting comfortable on the snow. More experienced skiers can use the lesson to improve their skills before enjoying the slopes independently.
  3. Lunch & Free Skiing After your lesson, take a break for lunch and then enjoy approximately 2–3 hours of free skiing at your own pace.
  4. At the end of your ski day, return your equipment and travel back to your hotel in Seoul.

Want More Lesson Time?

Extend Your Lesson to 3 or 4 Hours

Two hours isn't enough?

Because this is a private ski tour, you can extend your English ski lesson from the standard 2 hours to 3 or 4 hours.

This is particularly useful for first-time skiers who want more time with an instructor before skiing independently.

Standard: 2-Hour Private Lesson
Optional: 3-Hour Private Lesson
Optional: 4-Hour Private Lesson

Your free-ski time can then be adjusted accordingly.

Prefer an Afternoon Ski Lesson?

Your ski lesson doesn't have to take place in the morning.

If it works better for your schedule, you can enjoy free skiing first and move your private ski lesson to the afternoon.

This flexibility is especially useful for travelers who already have some skiing experience or simply prefer a different pace for the day.

Morning lesson or afternoon lesson — choose the schedule that works better for you.

Ski Less, Explore More

Combine Skiing with Sightseeing

Want to experience Korea's winter without spending the entire day on the slopes?

You can reduce your free-skiing time and add sightseeing or another experience before returning to Seoul.

Depending on your interests, available time, season, and route, we can suggest nearby attractions, cafés, local food, or other winter experiences.

It's a great option for families or groups where everyone may not want to ski for the same amount of time.

Private Ski Tour

3-Day Pyeongchang Ski & Gangwon Private Tour

3-Day Pyeongchang Ski & Gangwon Private Tour

Ski, Explore and Taste Winter Korea on a Private 3-Day Journey

Pyeongchang & Gangwon Private Tour · 3 Days

View Sample Itinerary

Read more

Turn your arrival in Korea into a winter adventure with a 3-day private ski and sightseeing tour in Pyeongchang and Gangwon.

Start directly from Incheon International Airport, travel by private vehicle to Pyeongchang, and enjoy two days of skiing with private English lessons and free-ski time.

But this trip isn't only about skiing. Combine your time on the slopes with Gangwon's beautiful winter countryside, a local attraction, and Korean food before finishing your journey with a comfortable private transfer to your hotel in Seoul.

Day 1 – Incheon Airport to Pyeongchang

Arrive in Korea and Head Straight to the Mountains

Meet your private driver at Incheon International Airport and begin your journey to Pyeongchang, one of Korea's best-known winter destinations.

Before arriving at your hotel, stop at a ski rental shop to prepare the ski equipment and clothing you'll use during your stay.

After checking in, store your equipment at the hotel and take the rest of the day to relax and prepare for your first day on the slopes.

Incheon Airport → Ski Rental → Pyeongchang Hotel → Rest

It's a convenient way to begin your winter trip without spending an extra night in Seoul before heading to the ski region.

Day 2 – Skiing, Gangwon Sightseeing & Local Dinner

Private Ski Lesson + Free Skiing

Start your first full ski day with a 2-hour private ski lesson in English.

The standard lesson is approximately:

9:00 AM – 11:00 AM | Private Ski Lesson

After your lesson, enjoy the slopes independently with free skiing until approximately 2:00 PM.

Explore Gangwon After Skiing

Instead of spending the entire day at the ski resort, change the pace in the afternoon and experience the winter countryside of Gangwon.

Visit Daegwallyeong Sheep Farm, known for its rolling hills and peaceful mountain scenery.

In winter, snow can transform the landscape into a beautiful white countryside, offering a completely different experience from the ski slopes.

Finish with a Local Korean Dinner

After sightseeing, enjoy dinner at a local restaurant before returning to your hotel.

It's a chance to experience local Korean food after a day in the snow, turning your ski day into a broader winter travel experience.

Day 3 – Ski Again & Continue to Seoul

One More Day on the Slopes

Return to the ski resort for another 2-hour private English ski lesson, giving you an opportunity to build on what you learned the previous day.

After the lesson, enjoy more free skiing until approximately 3:00 PM.

Return your ski equipment and clothing after skiing and prepare for your journey to Seoul.

Private Transfer to Seoul

Travel comfortably by private vehicle from Pyeongchang to your hotel in Seoul, arriving in the evening.

Your winter adventure ends in Seoul, making it easy to continue with the next part of your Korea trip.

Pyeongchang → Seoul Hotel

More Than a Ski Trip

What makes this itinerary different is that it combines several parts of a Korea winter journey into one seamless experience:

Airport Arrival → Pyeongchang → Private Ski Lessons → Free Skiing → Gangwon Winter Sightseeing → Local Food → Seoul

Rather than arranging airport transportation, ski equipment, lessons, sightseeing, and your transfer to Seoul separately, they can all be planned as part of one private itinerary.

Two Days to Learn & Enjoy Skiing

The itinerary includes a 2-hour private English ski lesson on both Day 2 and Day 3.

This works especially well for beginners.

  • Day 2: Learn and practice the fundamentals
  • Day 3: Continue practicing and improve your skills

After each lesson, you'll also have time to enjoy free skiing at your own pace.

And because this is a private tour, lesson and ski times can be adjusted when arranging your itinerary.

Why Choose This Tour?

  • 3-Day Private Winter Journey
  • Incheon Airport Pick-up
  • Private Transportation Throughout the Trip
  • Two Days of Private English Ski Lessons
  • Free-Skiing Time
  • Gangwon Winter Sightseeing
  • Local Korean Dinner Experience
  • Pyeongchang-to-Seoul Private Transfer
  • Flexible & Customized Private Itinerary

Perfect For

  • First-time skiers
  • Couples, families & friends
  • Travelers arriving at Incheon Airport
  • Visitors who want both skiing and sightseeing
  • Travelers who prefer a private winter experience
  • Visitors continuing their Korea trip in Seoul afterward

Make It Your Own

This is a sample 3-day itinerary, not a fixed package.

Want more ski instruction? Your private lesson can be extended.

Prefer more free-skiing time? We can adjust the schedule.

Want to spend less time skiing and explore more of Gangwon? We can customize the sightseeing portion as well.

Tell us your flight schedule, group size, skiing experience, and interests, and we'll design your Pyeongchang winter journey around you.

Ski. Explore. Taste Korea. Then Continue to Seoul.

🏔️ Choose Your Private Ski Resort

Private ski lessons are available at the following four ski resorts:

Elysian · Vivaldi · Alpensia · Mona Yongpyong

Perfect for couples, families, friends, and private groups who value flexibility and comfort.

Multi-Day Private Ski Trips

Want more than one day in the snow?

We can also arrange multi-day private ski trips combining skiing with winter sightseeing, local food, and destinations around Gangwon Province.

Stay near the resort, enjoy skiing at a more relaxed pace, and experience more of Korea's winter landscapes.

Tell us how many days you have, and we'll help design your winter itinerary.


Your Ski Day, Your Way

The standard program is only a starting point.

Because this is a private tour, you can customize your ski experience around your own interests and skill level.

Choose Your Lesson Time

The standard English ski lesson is 2 hours. You can extend it to 3 or 4 hours if you want more instruction and practice.

More Free Skiing If You Want

Already know how to ski? Spend less time on lessons and enjoy more time skiing independently on the slopes.

Combine Skiing with Sightseeing

You don’t have to spend the entire day at the resort. Shorten your skiing time and add sightseeing, local food, cafés, or other winter experiences on the way back to Seoul.

Pick-up & Drop-off Options

Hotel pick-up and drop-off in Seoul is standard. Other arrangements may also be possible depending on your itinerary.

Adjust the Plan on the Day

With a private tour, your itinerary can often be adjusted on the day in consultation with your guide, depending on timing and local conditions.

It’s Your Private Tour

Your lesson time, ski time, pick-up arrangements, and itinerary can all be customized around you.


👥 Group Ski Tour

Korea Group Ski Tour for Beginners at Elysian Gangchon

Easy, Social & Budget-Friendly Skiing from Seoul

Want to try skiing during your winter trip to Korea — even if you've never skied before?

Our Korea Ski Group Tour for Beginners is designed especially for international travelers who want an easy, worry-free introduction to skiing.

Every Tuesday in January and February 2027, we'll take you from Myeongdong in central Seoul to Elysian Gangchon Ski Resort for a full winter experience including a 2-hour ski lesson in English, all essential ski equipment and clothing, and approximately 2 hours of free ski time.

You don't need to own any ski gear.

Just come ready for the snow. We'll take care of the rest.


Why Choose Our Beginner Ski Tour?

1. A Full 2-Hour Ski Lesson in English

Many beginner ski programs offer only around an hour of instruction.

We provide 2 full hours of beginner ski lessons in English, giving you more time to learn and practice the fundamentals instead of simply getting a quick introduction.

Ski Lesson: 11:20 AM – 1:20 PM

After your lesson, you'll have approximately 2 hours of free ski time to practice what you've learned and enjoy skiing independently.

Learn Properly. Then Enjoy Skiing on Your Own.

2. All the Ski Gear You Need — Even Goggles & Gloves

First-time skier? You don't need to buy or prepare special ski equipment before your trip.

Your package includes:

  • Skis, boots & poles
  • Ski wear
  • Helmet
  • Goggles
  • Brand-new gloves — yours to keep
  • Beginner moving-walkway access

Goggles and gloves are often not included in basic ski packages, but we've included them so you don't have to worry about purchasing extra gear.

And unlike rental gloves, we give you a brand-new pair that you can keep after the tour.

Everything You Need. Just Show Up and Ski.

3. Practice on Your Own After the Lesson

Once your 2-hour lesson finishes at 1:20 PM, you'll have free time until approximately 3:30 PM.

Use this time to practice, enjoy the beginner slopes, take photos, or have lunch.

The beginner moving walkway is already included.

If you feel confident after your lesson and want to use the regular ski lifts, you can simply purchase a lift ticket separately at the resort.

There's no need to pay for a lift ticket before knowing whether you'll actually want to use it.


Not Skiing? Enjoy the Mountain Instead — USD 65

Perfect for Parents Accompanying Their Children

Maybe the kids want to learn to ski, but Mom and Dad would rather enjoy the snow.

No problem.

Our Non-Skier Sightseeing Option is USD 65 per person and includes:

  • Round-trip transportation from Myeongdong
  • Sightseeing lift ticket
  • Beautiful mountain & ski resort views
  • Korean fish cake (Eomuk) at the mountaintop

Take the sightseeing lift to the top of the mountain, enjoy the snowy scenery, and warm yourself with hot Korean eomuk (fish cake) while looking over the winter landscape.

Eating steaming-hot eomuk outside on a cold Korean winter day is a simple but memorable local experience — and one of those little things that makes winter in Korea special.

Kids Can Ski. Parents Can Enjoy the Snow.

This makes the tour especially suitable for families where not everyone wants to ski.
