Sunset, Salt & Stories: A Day of Nature and Flavor in Siheung
🌅 Sunset, Salt & Stories: A Day of Nature and Flavor in Siheung
If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind day trip from Seoul that blends Korea’s natural beauty, traditional culture, and luxurious relaxation, this is the journey you’ve been waiting for.
Let me walk you through one of the most enchanting day tours we offer: a premium van escape to Siheung’s tidal flats and the unforgettable sunset of Oido. With hands-on activities, gourmet dining, and breathtaking views, it’s more than just sightseeing — it’s an immersive experience in every sense.
🚐 Getting Started: A Comfortable Ride from Seoul
Your journey begins at 8:30 AM with a convenient hotel pickup in Seoul. You’ll board a private premium van (for up to 8 guests) complete with massage seats, Wi-Fi, USB ports, and refreshments. As we head toward Siheung, you’ll enjoy a welcome kit (tumbler, eco-friendly sunscreen, and a local salt voucher) and watch a short video introducing the area's unique ecology.
🌿 Morning Wonder: Gaetgol Ecological Park
By 9:30 AM, we arrive at Gaetgol Ecological Park — Korea’s only inland tidal flat. Here, a professional eco-guide walks you through the winding paths surrounded by salt-tolerant plants. You’ll even get to collect samples (season permitting) and learn about why these ecosystems are so important for the planet.
🧂 Salt, History & Hands-On Fun
Next up (10:30–12:00), we visit the Sorae Salt Field Heritage Center. This part of the tour is a highlight for many — you’ll learn how Koreans have harvested sea salt for generations and then try it yourself: boiling brine, watching crystals form, and packaging your very own handmade salt as a souvenir.
🍽️ Gourmet Lunch with a Salty Twist
Lunch is served in a stylish local venue at 12:00 PM. Every dish here features premium salt — from salt-aged sashimi and grilled beef to seaweed salads and salted caramel dessert. Want wine? Optional pairings are available. It’s a flavorful journey all its own.
🌸 A Touch of Tranquility: Okgu Park & Lotus Garden
After lunch, we explore the quiet elegance of Okgu Park (13:30–15:00). If you're visiting in summer, the lotus blooms are in full swing! Enjoy lotus tea, make a lotus-wrapped snack, and take stunning photos with the help of our private photographer.
🏺 Back in Time: Oido Prehistoric Park
From 15:00–16:30, we time-travel to the Neolithic era at Oido Prehistoric Park. With the guidance of a local historian, explore ancient relics and get your hands dirty with a fun pottery-making session.
🦀 Tidal Flat Safari with a Marine Biologist
At 16:30, put on your boots and grab your eco-kit! We head to the shore for a hands-on exploration of Korea’s mudflats. With the help of a marine biologist, you’ll spot crabs, clams, and gobies — and learn how vital these habitats are.
🍸 Sunset Vibes: Rooftop Cocktail Hour in Oido
As the sky begins to blush, we arrive at Oido Observatory (18:00–19:30) for an elegant rooftop cocktail party. Sip on curated cocktails and nibble on chef-prepared canapés as live acoustic music plays in the background. Don’t worry — our photographer is capturing it all.
🐟 Fine Dining Finale: Gourmet Seafood by the Sea
We finish strong with a luxurious seafood dinner at one of Oido’s top restaurants (19:30–21:00). Expect salt-aged platters, grilled prawns, and a silky scoop of sea salt ice cream — all while gazing over the twilight coastline.
💤 Back to Seoul in Style
At 21:00, we begin our return to Seoul. Recline in comfort, sip on a warm drink, and reflect on a day full of memories. A digital photo album will be emailed to you afterward.
