9. Seoul City Tour Bus
If you want to hit most of Seoul's major attractions but aren't keen on traversing the city by taxi or subway, these buses are the way to go. For a mere $10, you can hop on and off at at least two palaces, the major markets and N Seoul Tower, a communication tower that rises 479.7 m (1,574 ft.) above sea level and has a revolving restaurant and good views of the city — and get free history lessons en route. Look for the blue sign poles around the city to board. Double- and single-decker buses run Tuesday through Sunday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. There is also a night run from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Buy tickets on board.
