Han River yacht tour date in Yeongdeungpo, Seoul: Sailing Paradise

If you are tired of the same old café and movie-theater dates, I recommend the Sailing Paradise Han River yacht tour, where you can take in the Han River’s beautiful nightscape all to yourself. Gliding gently over the water with the river breeze on my face, surrounded by Seoul’s glittering forest of buildings and bridges, was such a lovely time! It is a great Han River yacht-tour date course to do after a Han River picnic date~

Where to board the Sailing Paradise Han River yacht tour

If you are driving, park at Yeouido Parking Lot 1 and walk to Sailing Paradise. Yeouinaru Station Exit 3 is a 15-minute walk away, so it is easy to visit by public transit too!

Facing the Han River near the duck-boat area, keep walking straight to the right and you will find the office. Wait here and the captain will come for you~ Booking ahead is essential! Same-day reservations are possible too.

Han River yacht tour prices and reservations

Han River yacht tour prices vary by boat, ranging from ₩30,000 to ₩50,000. Apparently, you can book during fireworks season too. Fireworks viewed from a yacht must be absolutely incredible..

My 1-hour Han River yacht tour review

Following the captain, off we went to board the yacht~ The course lasted one hour, which felt like just the right amount of time to enjoy it.

There are snacks ready to have with the champagne. One was truffle-flavored and the other was marshmallow snacks, and both were delicious haha. The champagne was tasty too—one of the other guests even took a photo of the label lol (that is how good it was~!)

Since you need to keep your balance on the yacht and move around to take photos, comfortable, non-slip shoes are safer and more comfortable than high heels!

When the yacht slips beneath a huge bridge, you can really feel the grand appeal of Seoul. Definitely, definitely take photos~

It was a little disappointing that the weather was cloudy that day, but it was still beautiful haha. Looking at Seoul’s nighttime scenery from a yacht gently rocking with the waves felt completely new and moving, even though this was the Han River I see every day~

The Yeouido view from the Han River... was it always this amazing? Lol. You can see that Seoul Flying(?) hot-air balloon over there too.

Cruising leisurely into the breeze on a yacht was so, so nice. It was not hot, and the breeze was cool—just perfect weather to enjoy it. It is not only a date option for couples; it is also like a cheat code for earning serious filial-devotion points if you bring your parents here to give them a special Seoul memory~

As it gradually got dark, the lights came on in the buildings, and that was another spectacular sight haha. Instead of loud nightlife, I cannot think of a more perfect place to have a deep conversation amid the gentle river breeze and lights! It has the kind of atmosphere that could create love where there was none, you know? Lol. If you are in the talking stage, I really, really recommend this!! It feels like you could become a couple right away.

When to board for both sunset and night views

A completely dark night is beautiful too, but if you board about 30 minutes before sunset, you can catch both the red sunset and bluish night view, giving you the most colorful and beautiful photos! I recommend checking the sunset time before you book~

The 63 Building looks so amazing too, right? Seoul nights really are all about the views. I loved this Han River yacht tour so much. Highly recommended!!

Just doing nothing and chatting away on the calm Han River made the time fly by haha. I really think it is perfect as a date course. Everyone came with their partners~ There was an elderly couple too, and the grandfather diligently taking photos of his wife left a real impression on me haha.

This Han River yacht tour was honestly even better than I expected. I think I will ride it again next time I come for a Han River date haha. I think the price is fair for this experience too. This weekend, why not take the hand of someone precious and head out on a romantic Han River yacht date in the soft night breeze that rivals even the sea at night~!
