Exploring Seoul with the New Seoul Climate Card & Comfortable Private Transport Options
Seoul is an exciting city filled with rich history, vibrant culture, and modern attractions. And now, starting July 1, 2024, visitors to Seoul can enjoy unlimited access to the city’s public transportation with the newly introduced Seoul Climate Card Tourist Pass. This will make traveling around the city easier and more affordable than ever before.
However, public transport isn’t always the best option for every traveler. For those who prefer convenience, comfort, and a private experience, MOVV offers premium private car charter and airport transfer services, making your trip to South Korea even smoother.
What Is the Seoul Climate Card Tourist Pass?
The Climate Card Tourist Pass is a transportation pass designed exclusively for international tourists. The pass offers unlimited rides on Seoul’s subway and bus system for a fixed number of days.
Pricing and Duration
Based on your travel plans, you can choose from four types of passes:
- 1-day pass: KRW 5,000
- 2-day pass: KRW 8,000
- 3-day pass: KRW 10,000
- 5-day pass: KRW 15,000
💡 TIP: If your itinerary focuses on exploring only Seoul, the Climate Card can save you money by offering unlimited subway and bus rides.
Where to Buy the Seoul Climate Card Tourist Pass?
You can conveniently purchase the pass from:
- Tourist Information Centers in Myeongdong and Seoul Tourism Plaza
- Subway customer centers (Lines 1–8)
- Convenience stores near subway stations
- Automatic ticket machines located in main subway lines (including Line 9 and Sillim Line)
Where Can You Use It?
The Climate Card allows unlimited subway access within designated Seoul stations, including:
- Lines 1-9, Ui-Sinseol Line, Sillim Line, Gimpo Goldline, and Gyeongchun Line
- AREX (Airport Railroad) from Gimpo Airport to Seoul Station
- Buses throughout Seoul
📌 Important Note: The Climate Card works only within Seoul. It cannot be used for subway exits outside the Seoul area.
